Squirrels, Rats, Possible Possum, and being talked to like I’m pregnant (I am NOT).

April 30, 2018 by Laura

Well…My People….the day has come for two things that are new in my life:

  1. I have rodents in my attic and from what I can conclude, it’s going to cost me a crazy amount of money to deal with.
  2. The man assisting me with my quote, said the woman no-no “you’re expecting, right?“…..Ugh..NO I am not pregnant..thank you very much!!!
So, I’m working through quite a few emotions this week. Creatures have invaded my safe place, my home, my dwelling. Don’t they understand that this is a human refuge? Keep your animal rodent pee, poop, and mating smells away from my house!!!!! It’s insane what these animals will gnaw through to get inside. The inner drive they have is out of this world insane to get inside. Prayers for a cheaper estimate would be much appreciated.

I understand the tactic this technician man was doing…trying to scare me into doing a complete attic restoration. Telling me all the health issues, etc, laying it out there…basically, how could you not do a complete restoration when you have an unborn child in your womb? When he uttered the words “You’re expecting, right?”, while I’m holding my heavy four-year old, which is causing my POT BELLY to stick out more than normal, I was like “No I am not” thinking this is highly uncomfortable and his shocking response of “OHHH“, did not help the very terrible situation I was in!

I wanted to say “Thank you very much for pointing out that most of the time I’m snacking on crap, eating crap, and not exercising. That my youthful metabolism is not what it used to be….at all. And, that, I am aware that I look thin other places, yet, all of my fat likes to go straight to my belly and my thighs!” Ugh, my people. I suffer a little today.

Think of me a little….
