    Default a happy ending to a scary moment!

    I was sitting working at my computer just now and noticed my cat Jessie looking very interestedly at the big bag of catfood next to my desk. She was... listening.

    Then I noticed faint sounds coming from... inside the bag!!

    The bag was clipped shut and I clipped it a LOT more shut!! And listened some more and the noise would stop, then start again.

    Then, tried to decide how in the world a mouse got in the bag, and how I was going to get the bag outside without mouse escaping, and get the mouse out of the bag outside.

    As I was steeling my nerve to do this, I thought I heard a faint... buzzing! Listening some more, I realised a large fly was trapped in the bag, not a mouse.

    I cannot tell you how happy I was to open the bag and watch a fly buzz away.

    You couldn't have said it better, Cathy!

    As I was reading along my eyes got bigger and bigger! I was trying to imagine you trying to let a mouse out of the bag, LOL It gave me haunting memories of when I was younger on the back porch and a mouse ran up my leg, Thank God that didn't happen to you!

    You guys are way too easily scared.

    Hearing your septic back up inside your house is scary.
    Smelling an electrical fire in your house is scary.
    Watching your child fall down the stairs is scary.
    Watching a possum growl at your cavalier on your deck is scary.
    Having your dishwasher flood the house is upsetting.

    Dealing with mice is a easy.
