And I am not amused.
I went downstairs with my laundry basket to throw a load of colored laundry in the washer. Had my iPod and buds with me because I figured that while the washer was running, I could hit the treadmill, then throw the laundry into the dryer and finish up on the treadmill. I do that quite often on weekends.
Anyway, I was scrubbing some Wisk into the collar of a white mock turtleneck that has a tendency to get a little dingy sometimes. Figured I'd let it soak in the detergent while the colored load was in the washer. So it was fairly quiet. And I heard rustling over in the corner where we keep the Chrismas stuff (Rick hasn't gotten around to putting the totes back up on the racks). I stopped dead. And listened. There it was again. There's definitely something in the basement.
Came upstairs and awakened dear Richard, who said, "Yeah" and rolled over and went back to sleep. Brat. So I opened the bedroom window and hit the elliptical instead.
He finally got out of bed and he's going to go downstairs and see what he can find. We were in and out of the basement yesterday with the recyclables and we think maybe a bunny got inside. But we have to find him, although even when we do, I don't know how we're going to get him back outside. We do have an animal trap that we can set, but that doesn't mean we'll catch him. If it is a bunny. And if there's really something down there (and I know there is!), I'd rather it be a bunny than a possum (they can be evil creatures when they're cornered).
