Butch will be staying in Jefferson to help Leo when needed and Jason and I will be going to Missouri to watch Elise's play Bugsy Malone JR. So I will be back home tomorrow, late in the day most likely.
Just sayin'.

Leo's knee and Butch mowed
We went to Ames yesterday to be with Keri while Leo had surgery on his knee. All went well. He will be coming home later today to start getting his life back.
Butch caught up with the mowing before the rain started. We have had a couple of inches now so the drying out process will take some time.
Here is Butch in his mowing garb.

Idea for Spiders and Mice
Last fall I was in an all-out fight with mice and spiders. I read that they do not like peppermint so I purchased a bottle of peppermint oil and put together the recipe of
Spider/Mouse repellant
1 cup water
1 tsp Peppermint oil
3 drops Dawn
And I sprayed it everywhere I saw a spider web as well as around all the doorways. And then I forgot all about it. Didn't think about it when we returned until today when I started some cleaning and it hit me that we did not have any spiders or webs! I am impressed with the results.
Oh yes, no mice either.
We never did have mice in the house but the garage was a haven. Not anymore!
