the curse of being an animal lover...


Life is stranger than fiction.  I almost caught a vole/mole this morning in
my HOUSE.  And because of me trying to capture this stupid mole/vole and not
let the dogs eat itI now have a huge green spot on my living room carpet.  I
guess one of the kids left a smoke bomb on the floor of the living room
closet..I was tearing out stuff to catch the mole/vole that crawled under
the closet doorand the new dog "found" the smoke bomb, picked it up, went
into the living room to eat this lovely treatand proceeded to spread green
powder all over the floor.  Robert tried to clean it up by WIPING IT..and I
screamed "DON'T YOU'LL MAKE IT WORSE  YOU HAVE TO VACUUM IT!"  Too late.
His
hands are green, the dog's paws are green, my carpet is green.  So  I'm
praying the carpet cleaner guy can fix this, or we will have to rip that
carpet out.  **sighhhhhh**

I should have let the dog just eat the critter...but I didn't have the
heart.  Sounds like some stupid scene in a movie...but at Chez Bell...it's
just another day.
