Of Mice And Men

[poliphilo]

My mother was up at five, needing attention. I find it hard to get back to sleep after this kind of awakening.

Hygiene becomes an issue. We're taking up the bathroom carpet and replacing it with vinyl. Should we be thinking of doing the same with my mother's bedroom carpet? I've had to give the area around the commode a good scrubbing  twice this week.

I've been keeping the bird food in the garage. This morning I found a mouse had made itself a nest among the fat balls. It's a plump,, sleek little mouse. I've moved the bulk of the food into the house, but I'm leaving the nest intact.

Yeah- we buy them for ourselves from Ikea. I don't think they're an option for my mother though; there'd be a danger of her tripping over them.
