Stop the Mouse Invasion!

While at work on Friday, I had the duties of being manager on duty....what this means is every once in a while, I walk around the facility to ensure that everything is going okay for all of the departments.  Well, after securing the building so to speak, I walked back into my office, where I see someone walking out.  It was one of my staff members walking out with two cups- she proceeds to say "you don't want to see this!"  I gave her an inquisitive look, like- huh?!  She then proceeds to tell me "Oh, it's just spiders you don't like, right?"  Again, I stared with a blank stare.  She then proceeds to uncover the clear cups and thats when I realized she had a mouse!  Yes, she had caught it and was going to go let it free.  I freaked out!  She also had a three year old little girl with her, who loves to come and visit me; the three year old, Kate was like "Lynsey it's a mouse!".  I then went into my office and saw this fuzzy little thing in there....it was white- I thought for sure another mouse...but no...it was Kate's bird.  I told Kate to pick up her scary bird...she proceeded to correct me; "Lynsey the bird is not a mouse!".  I then stepped out for lunch; as I was walking in the parking lot- in between my stride- there was a dead mouse.  As I told people who work there- they told me that it was probably the 4th mouse that we had caught within 3 days!  I have never dreaded going back to work, as I am today....please Monday; don't arrive, can we get a snow storm or something!?!?

**I also took some pictures however, I am lacking the patience to upload them and actually get them to load...

I would be so scared! We have had a mouse at my work too. I told them to find it or they would be giving me CPR if I had seen it.
