I know spring has “arrived” when I pull out from my closet all my colored T shirts and put them in my clothes drawer.  I exchange them for the insulated underwear there which now get stored back in the closet.  I have so much room.  When the warm weather is here to stay, I usually wear T shirts.  It is just another sign the warm weather is here to stay.  This happens every year.

Tilla The “Sneak”

Author: siggy

There was just one scrap of biscuit left in the box stored in the corner of our closet. Tilla did it again. Lynelle mentioned the door was left open for over a day. And he knows where we keep them. And one by one without us noticing it, he ate over two pounds of dog biscuits. And neither Lynelle nor I noticed he had his nose in the biscuit box over and over and had a feast. Both of us laughed (and made sure the closet door was kept closed).

I used to keep my potatoes in the garage but last time some critter helped themselves to a few potatoes, gnawing all around several.  My wife immediately threw these in the trash.  Fortunately he left a few alone.

I used to keep bird seed in the garage, too, but I had the same problem.  Some animal probably a mouse took a liking to it, scattering the shells of the sunflower seeds, creating a real mess on the floor.

My cobs of corn which I put out for the squirrels hoping they would eat less birdseed were not safe there either.  There would be neat even rows of corn kernels gone.  This creature was winning.

I decided to keep my potatoes in the closet in the house hoping no creature could get at them there.  I will see.  I was running out of hiding places.  I was fighting a battle with an invisible enemy.  And I was losing.
