Thanks you guys, I did get 2 more critters last night. I have tried the sticky traps, but then I would have to get rid of them alive! And Im sure as not gonna "unstick" one to let him go! EWW!
They are just nasty little things. I dont have this problem at home because I have soooo many cats! Might have to bring one to work!!

I have to tell this. I had a friend want to set me up with a guy, just to go out and have a good evening. Well, come to find out this guy knew my H. My H came in last night to get the kids, and I had been talking to this guy on the phone. My H wanted to know who it was. I told him it wasnt any of his business...then he wanted to stand on the porch and throw a little fit! I ended up telling him who it was just to shut him up! He started with "oh, Im supposed to be able to tell you stuff, but you cant tell me"....ok, he was acting immature. When I told him who it was he laughed and couldnt believe who it was...well anyway...I told him that it didnt matter what he thought and that I could do what i wanted! He agreed with me and then he knew he had upset me a little with how he was acting, so he apologized and wanted to give me a hug...I did, then he left. So, then for the next 3 hours, I get texts from my H....One being "can I tell you something"...then "I have had several thoughts of asking you out on a date".

????OK, my first thought was HOW DARE YOU????

I didnt reply, then he text that he was sorry, he didnt know why he told me that, but he did.

oh....Im not having a relationship with this guy, just going out to dinner with him. My H wants a divorce! What am I supposed to do, sit around and wait for him to grow up which may be never!!!??

Now Im having a day where I am confused on what to do. I dont want a relationship with this guy, just a nice dinner and a movie...And now my H wants to go on a date with me??

I think that after almost 2 years, he has finally seen that I am not going to wait forever! I dont know what else to think...or what to do now.

Talk about confusion huh? If you want to go out and have a good time and are ready to do so then do it. If not, then don't. Forget about H for a moment and just do what you feel in your heart.

What Dawn said. I've had to use live traps before, and they're no trouble at all. Just have to put that out there.

Whoa, sorry Kissak for the seeming nonsequitur, guess you, I, and FG were posting simultaneously.

What your H did is so weird. Whatever, I think you are entitled to have dinner and a movie with whomever you like!

Ok the dinner, I just don't know. If you are really wanting your M back it is probably not a good idea. But it is up to you.

The mice, just use the kill traps, sorry Dawn. Mice can reproduce every 21 days. They will just keep making more and to move them would just move the problem. We are starting to get rats in our neighborhood because of a few houses in forclosure and my cats keep bringing them home. (I live in Florida where fruit rats run rampant if even one person has a citrus tree in their yard). Just kill them. An exterminator will just put the traps out too although they might use a lot more than you are so just keep doing it.

Thanks guys, I caught another one this morning.

You know I am rethinking the dinner and movie thing. I dont think Im ready. Now I just have to figure out how to tell this guy that. But then again, would making a new friend hurt? It is only dinner.

But I know my H is freaking out. This is the first real threat he has had of losing me. He is really down the last couple of days...he even turned his phone off last night and didnt go to his class. I know he is just down. Having an emotional day like we all do, even though this is from his doing. Today he told me he was feeling a blank....I keep wondering when he will figure out that God is the only thing that is going to fill that blank, not me or any other person. Anyway, Im praying for him today. And Im not going to let it bother me. He put himself where he is at.

Your H may never realize that God will fill the void but he may find something spiritual. We all have our own definitions of what the "higher power" is. I realized last year when my MIL asked me how I knew her parents were in heaven, that some people just never seem to find that faith. Others of us have it and then forget for a while.

Listen, if you have to talk yourself into a date, then don't do it. I know in myself that I probably won't be ready for that for a long long time. But as my H has a job that can take his life at any minute, it is something I have had to think about more than once during our marriage. I have always looked at the picture to prepare myself for the reality of not having his income, his help with S, his presence in my life. I guess I just never thought it would be quite this way.

Hi kissak,

Can you bring one or two of your cats to stay in the shop for a few days? Natural extermination! And fun for the cats.

As for the date, if you don't want to go, cancel, but don't let h's reaction dictate your actions.

Your right Kelaaron, But I dont know if its because Im scared or what.

Honestly I have times where I want someone else in my life, then I get to where I am just happy being alone.

Any ideas on what to tell this guy? How do I excuse myself from this date? He even asked in the beginning if it was over with my H because he didnt want to get involved if it werent. I guess that is what got me thinking.

BUt I cant take my H back now....He is no where even ready to come back. But do I wait forever??

hey new....Ive thought about bringing in a cat or two! But I have a feeling they would have way too much fun playing with the plants that are everywhere!! I have thought it would be nice to have a shop cat though, maybe one of the kittens? But Im not sure if the landlord would allow it, although there use to be a vets office next door, so??
