Restless Nights

Previously I could blame my lack of sleep on the Chlomid and the insane hot flashes throughout the night that had me awake every other hour. Now I have a whole host of things I can blame it on.  

1.) Snoring: Hubs and Roxy. Like father like furball. Our room sounds like a bear's den.

2.) Dogs walking around/digging/moving in general... apparently dog time isn't always the same as people time.  

3.) Dogs licking privates. Unbelievably disgusting and so unladylike, but folks it happens and it's loud and it wakes me up.

4.) The hubs in general.  Playing music, playing games, watching an excessively loud T.V., banging on his drums (granted his new set is electric but it's directly below the bedroom and I can hear the sticks smacking the plastic...rat a tat tat tu tat tat bang tat tat), turning the lights on in the bed room so he can "see where the bed is",  dance parties, and my new least favorite to get me to help him catch a mouse!

I can't escape the damn mice even in my sleep! Austin last night comes into our room to wake me up.  Mistake number 1 waking me up, mistake number 2 waking me up on a night I took a sleep aid to help me sleep ( Pulling yourself out of your first deep slumber in weeks isn't pretty people) mistake number 3 he woke me up over a mouse.  

He leads me to the kitchen and says...shhhhhh.  Sure enough... mouse, under the trashcan, in the laundry room.  I'm thinking great hun you found one of the probably 300 mice living in our home, what  I am going to do about it? Man up buddy.  I do mice while your gone,you come home, it's your turn.  Austin's brilliant game plan is to place a sticky trap in front of the trash, lift one side then use my feet to block it. Keep in mind I am bare foot.  I may be half asleep but I'm not an idiot and my tootsies will not be used as a mousy barricade.

End of the story.  Austin lifts the trashcan, the mouse runs out evades the sticky trap and lives to see another day.

Ok mice you thought I was mad before, guess what.. now I am mad and tired! Look out!

Mice: 5,033,324
Wiechmans : 8 (Not for long!!!)
