Naked times 5


Naked times 5, originally uploaded by MonicaSmoot.

My men found the babies on Saturday while mowing the backyard. They lifted up a piece of plywood and saw the momma scurry away. I think there's a reason why no one says "as ferocious as a momma rat." I'm guessing the babies are only about 1 day old here.

So now I have a dilemma. We just paid a huge amount of money to get some critters out of our attic and I certainly don't want any more finding their way in to my house. I also don't want to encourage snakes into my yard, although I know they are already there. If we leave them alone, my dog will most likely end up getting them once they start leaving the nest. As it is now, they are protected under some plywood that takes a couple of strong arms to lift. But I can't bring myself to get rid of these babies. I'm just going to let whatever happens, happen.

I see you like reading but have you read the master and margarita?

If only I can find my way back through a trail, I would love to stop by again?
