The Squirrel, The Pudding and the Mouse.

It has been a while since I posted. Not by choice though. We have been without Internet and cable since Sunday. Today (Wednesday) is the first available time insight could come out. And guess what they found? A squirrel had chewed through the cable line. I won't go into details about my conspiracy theory on squirrels but when I called Sheila to find out what insight found and she told me about the squirrels I said "SEE" my theory about the squirrels are right. They are attacking our homes. Unless we do something about it we are all not safe from the wrath of the squirrels. Of course I am kidding, but I still think the "surveillance officer" had something to do with this. He knows we watch TV and Surf the web. His goal is to knock out all ties to the outside world so they can break in and steal all our nuts and anything else that squirrels eat. Did you know that squirrels loose 90% of the nuts they hide? Seems like squirrels and I both share a memory problem. But I won't go into that right now.

For those of you who have kept up with my blogs and might be wondering about the poor old dead mouse. I have not found time to go out and see if he is still there. Sheila has made no more comments about the mouse so either mother nature finally came through and removed the rodent from view or Sheila did. Well then there is always the possibility that thing is still outside. I have to think that by now it's probably smelling pretty rank and something has come to devour it. But then again most of the time I am proven wrong by my thinking. I am almost tempted to stop right here and go out side to look and see. But if I do that and it's still there I will not have an excuse to dispose of it. Therefore I'll keep rambling.

A final thought. We were in Kroger's a few day's ago and out of the corner of my eye I spotted a Holiday Display. You know the ones I'm talking about. It has all the fixings to make fudge and candy and pies. It's Kroger's way of getting you to buy even more of what you don't need. I think their plan works as well. Anyway I spotted a Pumpkin Spice pudding (Jello Brand) I purchased this pudding back in early October and I loved it. I found it at Wal-Mart. When I went back to Wal-Mart to buy more they were out. Then the higher ups at Wal-Mart decided that this seasonal item should be hidden from my view. I never did find anymore. I even told a co-worker about this delicious dessert. She was excited because she loves pumpkin anything and could not wait to taste it. So I did my good deed when I spotted this delightful pudding once again. I purchased 4 boxes and gave one to my co-worker (Who happened to enjoy it as much as I did). I'm thinking that I might need to go back to Kroger and buy all the puddings they have left. That way after Christmas is over and this "Seasonal" items goes back into hiding I'll have a stash to last me till next Christmas.

Blessings till I post again.
