Critter Infestation !!!

We trapped another Raccoon last night & Jeremy carried him to a semi-rural area and released him early this morning. Think we have at least one more to trap. Who'd have thought that we would have such an infestation?

Critter Alert !!!!!

We've been hearing a critter rumbling around in our chimney for a few weeks now. So we borrowed a varmint trap from a friend and set it out. It only took two nights! Second night about 10:45 Jeremy hears the trap outside their bedroom window & went out to find the furry little raccoon in the picture. After being in it all night, the little #@$%&@# appears to have damaged the trap trying to escape. Guess I'll be buying a replacement trap! Connie called Grand Prairie animal control who is supposed to pick it up today. If they don't show up, I'll handle it myself. :o)

Heart Update

I got the results from Wednesday's nuclear stress test today and good news! There was minimal damage done by the heart attack and the blood flow is good to all parts of the heart. The EF (ejection factor) is 65% (anything above 55% is considered healthy according to Wikipedia) so I lucked out again! So, it's life back to normal except that I have to continue the meds (like a cholesterol drug, aspirin, etc.) and stick to a heart healthy diet.
