Feeling Squirrel-y?

I have issues (don’t we all?) and, if you were to ask me to list, oh, I dunno, at least 5 of them, off the top of my head, they would be as follows:

Dirty dishes in the sink:  especially, when the dishwasher is dirty.  Drives me nucking futz, to the point where even my neighbors know when, “THE DISHWASHER IS DIRTY…DAMMIT!

Silent treatments:  are like nails ripping into chalkboard (you’re welcome!) the absolute worst form of torture, right?

Wet towels on the floor:  especially, when the washer is empty (see dirty dishes, above.)

Doofus-Dog on the couch:  makes me itchy.

Squirrels:  ransacking the bird feeders (see picture above) I hate, Hate, HAte, HATe, absolutely freaking HATE squirrels.  Aaaand, they don’t like me, either.  How do I know?

This morning, I was able to address 2 outta 5 of said issues, to my complete and total satisfaction.

The fact my husband, Garth (not his real name) doesn’t seem to have these sort of issues, is just plain weird, don’tcha think?

    Poor little squirrel.
    Just kidding!!! Good luck with the dishes. I have tackled picking up 7 mismatched socks and an assortment of at least 12 hair accesories from my living room. Sounds like it’s time for a treat!

    I have some issues as well, but you don’t have time to read them all. 🙂

    Squirrels are lower than flying rats. HATE THEM.

    I hear you on the dishes.
    No, really, it was yesterday, about 6:30 your time, right? Texas isn’t as far away as you might think.
