Little Gray House

My friend Julie says it's bad when you get into the shower and there is no towel. That is true, especially when you've thoroughly enjoyed the shower. I also think it's a bit of a quandry when there is no toilet paper in the house and it is realized when a child is in the bathroom yelling for some. So, instead of writing a blog, I should be up and out to the store buying 'music roll' as my mom used to call it. But I'm conserving energy and waiting until tomorrow to combine trips and all...and I'm lazy. Music roll? Oh yeah, we couldn't say 'toilet paper' - it was embarrasing, so we said music roll...

I also discovered today that a lonely squirrel tail is haunting our property. It's true. My cat obviously destroyed the squirrel, but left one foot and it's tail. It's her m.o. We've discarded this tail, it returns. We've moved the tail, it returns. If I were to walk out the basement door, I would see the tail. BUT, five minutes later if I were, say, pulling weeds in the front yard, I would stand up to find the tail under my foot. It's haunted, I tell you. I walked down the front steps into the driveway and saw the tail, maybe 20 feet away. The wind started to blow, caught the tail, and moved it eerily across the entire driveway, where it stopped right at my feet. Creepy. This tail stands up and salutes me in a light wind and waves like there's no tomorrow in full wind - it just won't go away! I guess I should be thankful it's not the lone squirrel foot running after me.

Maybe I need ghostbusters?
