Car, Rats and Play Dates

We have our car!  I'm so excited that I can actually travel around the city without getting on the bus or walking.  Of course as I said earlier, parking might be an issue but when I walk the dogs and walk to the grocery store, I can see lots of parking spots.  During the day, that is.  But that's when I'm going to be driving!  Yay!!!!

Next, rats.  I got up the other night to use the rest room and when I was on my way back to bed I saw Bailey standing in front of the door like he wanted to go out.  So I thought I would buy myself some time in the morning by letting him out on my way back to bed.  As soon as I opened the door, both dogs went charging out the door and one rounded the corner in hot pursuit of something that I couldn't see.  They rounded the tree together and that's when I saw little brown puffs of something that were running from them.  I knew they were the rats and fearing they would get bitten, I turned the light on and yelled at the dogs to come in.  OMG there were lots of little brown furry things out there.  But I was told the exterminators were going to be here today to start getting rid of them, but alas, no exterminators.  I'll text the land lady tomorrow and ask what's going on.  Or I might ask Don to text her...  Anyone heard of Willard?

If you have a house with hard wood floors, and rent the bottom floor out, it should be against the law to ever host a play date at 8 am no matter what day it is!!!  I'm just saying...

Enjoying the afternoon sunshine.  Or is Missy watching for rats?
