There was one mouse in our basement back in November, and I avoided going down there for two months even though we killed it immediately and the other four traps I insisted my husband set sat completely untouched.<BR/><BR/>LAP, I know you are wary of change and have already heard that the green background was the subject of some skepticism at a recent social gathering I could not attend. Rest assured, I am just experimenting. I do want the blog's appearance to be more personal and more worthy of the writing quality (NTB), but I think I will need to enlist some outside help to really realize my vision.<BR/><BR/>M, you're right, the neighbors yard is just as chaotic, but since they have three kids, it is more excusable!mephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03074153090546740903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-82582759686863638732008-06-08T20:26:00.000-05:002008-06-08T20:26:00.000-05:00It appears your neighbors share the same backyard ...It appears your neighbors share the same backyard chaos.

As a former city resident (although Bawlmore, not Chicago), I can say that IS a luxurious backyard. My city house had a 12x20 concrete pad that served as our backyard. I did my best to garden it up, but when you're fighting rats (shudder) for control of the planter boxes, its an uphill battle.<BR/><BR/>The Bub sure is a cutie, btw.CaraBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614627167922944626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-29149957823491236472008-06-07T12:36:00.000-05:002008-06-07T12:36:00.000-05:00It took a lot of focus for me to read about the mu...It took a lot of focus for me to read about the mullets, not because it wasn't an enjoyable and well-written post (because it was), but I found myself distracted by the new background. Is the green here to stay or are you tinkering? I'm sometimes slow to adapt to change so just want to know what I should mentally prepare for.... <BR/><BR/>I never thought of mullets as any type of disconnect, but I like the thought process there. So, for instance, a really nice car in the driveway of a really run down house might be mullet-like? I feel like I will be incorporating this type of extended mullet lingo into my conversations...because really, who doesn't want to talk about mullets?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
