I Ain't Scared of No... Oh Wait...

I've been married long enough to know my husband is not going to coddle me. He's a caretaker, that's his gift. He goes to work, pays the big bills, and makes hard decisions easy (he leaves little wiggle room for nonsense).  That's usually all well and good. It can also work to my detriment...like this morning.

I'm scared of mice. Things that move like that freak me out, especially if they're in the house.  But, I hate to see them, or any animal for that matter, hurt or dead too.

We live in the country, and every year, in the winter, we get a mouse. Two days ago, hubby told me there was one in the house.  He stopped at the store on the way home from work & picked up traps.  On Night #1, the mouse took the cheese, without snapping the trap.

That meant serious business for hubs last night, as far as setting the traps.

This morning making hubs' lunch for work, I realized something, we were OUT OF BREAD! That meant I had to go to the  basement (where the traps were set) to get a loaf out of the freezer (on my own).  I was petrified thinking about it. So much so, that I waited hours until hubby got up, to ask him to get it. Even when asking, I knew there was a big chance he'd say no. When he told me, 'there's a mouse here once a year, what's the big deal,' and hopped in the shower, I knew he wasn't getting that bread.

I had to go get it (cue the scary music here).  Hubby works in a rural area, and he's outside all day, so to not pack him lunch would be ridiculous.

If you saw me creeping down the stairs though, jumping at every shadow that's always there, and almost running to the freezer, you'd have laughed at how silly it was.  No idea why I'm so scared of those d.a.r.n. things (dead or alive), but thankfully all is well that ends well, and there was no mouse in a trap for me to see.

Sandwiches are made, lunch is packed, life goes on.

My husband wasn't being mean. He just thinks it's ridiculous that I'm scared of a mouse in a trap (and he could have a very valid point there, but it doesn't change that I am).  He really just has, and has always had, a zero tolerance level for things he deems nonsense.

While that's not changing for me, there could be hope for you!!  SO, the moral of my story is: If your wife (or husband) is scared to do something that doesn't phase you (even if you think it's the epitome of ridiculous), for the love of gravy do it. The heart you save could be your spouse's. :)

What unreasonable thing gets you going?  I can add frogs to my list. And when we lived in Florida, the big flying cockroaches that lived in trees and sometimes made their way into your house (shudders).

Southern Rags (cute clothing for kids!)

Disclosure: Mail4Rosey did not receive compensation or favor for this free will post.

It's almost Spring, woohoo! And if you have a little one, that means it's time for super cute Spring-Time fashions!!  I LOVE dressing the little ones up in cute clothes for the warmer weather (well any time, actually, but in the Spring you get to actually see the clothes because they're not covered with coats and such ;) ).

Southern Rags

Southern Rags is a great place to find those clothes!   I recently won a giveaway on another blog for a little dress for my granddaughter.  It's the cute Chevron print seen above, and it is adorable!  I got to choose any dress I wanted, and I let little one's mommy pick. She selected the dress above, which I thought was such a cute choice.

June Flower dress from Southern Rags

The June Flower dress seen above would be so cute for an older little girl (older than our little one who's just walking).  I love the big bow on the one shoulder.

Aurora Chevron Ruffle Bottoms

There are cute ruffle bottoms available too.

The SeerSucker Ruffle Butt above is so cute it makes me laugh!!

Accessories

Southern Rags has some great accessories too, like the hat in the photo above. Can't you just see a little one sporting the hat and some cute sunglasses on the beach, looking cute while still having UVR protection?  

Southern Rags
Shortalls for boys

Southern Rags has items for little boys too, like the shortalls in the photo above. You know most any boy is going to love those working pockets and the cute three-dimensional lion on the front.  And they're going to look like little sweethearts sporting that outfit too.

Just a ton of cute, cute choices, and judging from the dress our little one received, they're very well made too.

Heat Your Feet with The Warming Store

Disclosure: We received a pair of socks to help facilitate the review. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.

My son is outside for a good portion of the day, in any and all kinds of weather.

My oldest son spends a good portion of his work day outside.  As some of you might know from previous posts, part of his duties in the military right now entails being involved in the funeral processions that take place at Arlington National Cemetery.

This horse has the same name as his next in age brother, so he felt the need to
take this picture and make that fact known (to, of course, that particular brother). ;)

When he is not taking part in a transfer or a ceremony, he is tending to the horses. His day starts very early in the morning, and he has to be outside in all types of weather.

While I am sure he would like nice (weather) days like in the photos above, that is not always the case.  More often than not, they're dealing with rain, cold, ice, sleet, and/or snow.

Everyone knows once your feet get cold, that's all she wrote.  The rest of you feels cold, no matter what you do.  So what can be done to keep those feet warm?

Head over to The Warming Store. The Warming Store has got their tootsies, and whatever other area(s) they might need, covered.

There are warming socks that take disposable batteries like the Grabber Socks shown below...

The Grabber Socks run on 'D' batteries and come in different sizes
The Warming Store

If you are in need of mild heating, these are the way to go.  These would be great for things like walking the dog in the winter, doing yard work, etc.

Gerbing's Battery Heated Sock Liners
And there are some that run on rechargeable batteries too! These are designed with a moisture wicking, 4-way stretch fabric that conforms to the shape of your foot.  They come with four different heat settings, and generate some serious heating power!  If you're in bitter cold weather, this is a selection you're going to want to consider.

Gerbing's Battery Heated Sock Liners sold at The Warming Store

Package Includes:

2 Sock Liners (1 pair)

2 Rechargeable Batteries

1 Charger

2 Leg Straps/Clips

Sock Harness

There are other socks to choose from too. In fact, there is a whole array of items to look through that serve every warming function you could possibly need.  There are warming slippers, ski boot liners, motorcycle attire, and heated gloves (just to name a few of The Warming Store categories).

And in the summer, when it gets too hot???  You can head on over to My Cooling Store where the same company offers every single thing you need to stay cool in the very hot summer weather.

Both stores serve you well in keeping comfortable in extreme temperatures, and both are worth looking into if you know someone who spends a lot of time outside.

Only When You're a Kid

Happy to Show off that Missing Tooth

 
Two things struck me as funny when I saw these pictures:

1. Only when you're a kid do you get so excited about missing teeth ;)
2. Only when you're a kid do you get so excited about getting four quarters (thank you Tooth Fairy).

Little man's now rocking that 'missing front tooth' look, lol, and he looks supercuteadorable to me. :)
