Year 4, Day 336, “Living the Dream”. Tuesday, 4/01/2025. The Wellington – It appears as though the mice are back. They are bringing insulation from the outside wall into the interior wall between the bar room and the bathroom. For the last few days, we have had traps baited with peanut butter surrounding that wall area. The mice were ignoring the traps. Yesterday we tried adding a 1/2 of a Cheetos Puff to the peanut butter. Wow that drew one out of the wall very quickly. Mice apparently can’t resist the smell of Cheetos. Or is it a rat?? EEEEEEW


It is amazing how dirty the shower drain gets.



Here’s a current video of the Williamsburg as of today.

Things to ponder today! Have to leave you thinking.


Here’s a link to today’s Amazon recommendation: https://amzn.to/425rQju Batman costume: Steve loves this costume. He puts it on and becomes Batman. He keeps saying I am Batman. It is well made. A little big in the chest, but Steve liked the extra large, because he could wear clothes underneath. The cape is shorter than I thought it should have been, but Steve liked the shorter one compared to a long one. It was authentic looking. Would buy again if needed
