I think I’m going insane.
Ever since this morning’s run-in with a mouse in our kitchen, I keep thinking I see one scampering about out of the corner of my eye. It’s maddening!
One question for you guys: Who wants to come over for a sleepover!? Let’s have a party. Bring your cat.
Sadie Drop Off
This morning, after tackling some emails in my inbox, I headed out to drop off the stomach kicker/ mouse stalker-but-not-killer with my mom. My family will be watching Sadie for the next three days as Ryan and I head to Atlanta for my birthday celebration weekend!
I’ve been anxiously awaiting this trip since my birthday back in April and can’t wait to scuba dive with some whale sharks. It’s going to be freaky and fantastic all at the same time.
I spent a good hour with my mom after dropping Sadie off and really enjoyed catching up with her. Sadie was beyond excited to see my mom and whimpered, peed and frothed at the mouth all at once when she first heard her voice.
Lunch
Lunch today was totally random because my timing got a little screwy since I was out and about.
First, a white chocolate macadamia nut Luna bar…
(Recycled picture because I was driving on the highway and it was dangerous to snap a photo. Safety first!)
Then a waffle with almond butter when I got home (x2!)…
Followed by an unpictured Granny Smith apple with more almond butter. Sometimes random just works.
Off to set up a guest post for tomorrow afternoon on the blog. It’s a good one!

Your trip sounds like so much fun! You’ll have a blast!
Alexandrina @ The Cardio Queen says
Bone Garden Cantina is a MUST! As someone who’s from Arizona, aka the place with the BEST Mexican food ever (no joke!), this is the only Mexican food place that has authentic Mexican food here in Atlanta. Must try it! You won’t be disappointed and the decor is awesome as well; it’s in the form of Dia de los Muertos type. Enjoy!

My parents cats are indoor cats but they are mean little mouse killers. Charlie also likes to put the mice in the tub and then bat them around. They get tortured in their house. Haha.
Ellie@fitforthesoul says
Oh I hope the mice get their own place soon! yikes.
Lauren says
My dog does the same thing when we drop him off with my parents. I think he actually likes to stay with them more! LoL. They spoil him rotten so no wonder he loves going to grandma and grandpa’s.
Claire @ Un Bello Aperitivo says
I have to say that your comments under your pictures, especially the ones with Sadie, are HILARIOUS! Seriously, they make me laugh every time.
Happy early birthday!

we had a little mouse issue in our house and my roommate some how knew that putting peanut butter on mouse traps is the way to go. not only am i positive you have some stock of the stuff, but it really does work! but you might have to worry about sadie! once one mouse was trapped (it was really gross and sad, boy roommate discarded of it) the mouse family left our house, realizing we weren’t kidding around!
Khushboo says
Have a blast in ATL! Will you be seeing Tina?
Hayley @ hayley daily says
Yum, that waffle looks so good! And the white chocolate macadamia Luna bars are my absolute FAVE.
Alyssa says
You’re lucky you have family who will watch your pup while you’re away. When I was a kid, we had to bring our dog to a kennel; when we picked her up, she had caught some kennel sickness and had to be brought to the vet…If you have to every bring the pooch to a kennel, do your research!
Have a wonderful time on your trip and Happy Birthday! 🙂

Oh my gosh, when we had mice, I would get woken up every night! Whenever the blankets would touch my feet I’d freak out and think a mouse was crawling across me. Yikes!
Congrats to the giveaway winners! The amount of comments was INSANE! People love those headbands!!
