Oh no, more mice!!!!!

May 29 – We had more rain during the night and it was cool when we got up.  I made Sunday breakfast and also a pot of wild/mixed rice for part of our dinner.  When I went to the cupboard to get out my pancake mix I noticed a little nicked spot on the top of the container.  I asked Bill if there had been any q-tips out of place in the bathroom and he said not today, but yesterday.  Ah ha!  We are under field mice attack again, but I’m getting the jump on those little varmints!  As soon as breakfast was over I checked everything in the cupboard and nothing was gnawed through and I emptied the q-tips.  I brought in 2 packets of mice bait and put one in the cupboard that backs up to the bathroom and one in the drawer in the bath with 4-5 q-tips across it so I’ll know if they go in it.  I had to pitch so much stuff by the time we discovered them last summer!

After setting up the mice I got out the spray to do around the perimeter of the RV for ants but then it started to drizzle so I didn’t get that done.  The temps started going down a bit instead of up and I wore jeans and a long sleeve shirt to work today.  Even though we park inside a gated area that I have to open and close as we enter, they won’t let us park in the circle drive in front of the building. Now I have to drop Bill off and then go park the car.  I have 2 bags of “stuff” I carry.  We aren’t terribly busy so we take books and Bill takes his laptop and a movie and I take my netbook and of course I take some snacks and today I took prepped iced coffee with out the ice.  I carry a container of ice for it when we get ready.

We had more money in sales today but less transactions.  It was a dreary, rainy day and there were still a lot of people on the beach and grounds.  Most were day visitors but many cut their stays short due to the nasty cooling weather.  Since we now have the snacks in the VC one of Bill’s jobs is to put them out when we arrive and box them up when we leave.  While he does that I do the balancing and close out the register and the credit card machine.  We met and talked with a lot of nice people today.  One couple was very interested in how we got our “job” as they are interested in a couple of years to do what we do.

Nothing too exciting but leftovers for dinner.
