For many it is. Reds was once bringing us a mouse he caught. It got out of his mouth and ended up getting away. He just looked at it while it made its escape under a closet door. Other times we found dead ones. One night we were out late at a party. When we got home I found he had left a huge dead one right next to my slippers I would change into.

Rewrap when the other bars come. No way I could let it sit for three months.

Yea when I see it tomorrow I’ll have them wrap it. When I stepped in on Saturday the guy I have been working with during this process was off. The other staff seemed pretty knowledgeable about my plans, and when they looked up the bars it showed a little bit of a wait.
Maybe my guy has knows of some somewhere else?
There is also a small chance I won’t be able to “pick it up” til the end of the month. By pick it up, I mean my wife go and pay for it and it sit at the shop til December. That’s prolly the main reason for delaying the wrapping. If scenario number 2 happens then the new bars might arrive before I physically get to bring it home.
If option 2 happens the scream Friday morning will be heard around the world.

Yes. Especially if her mom didn't teach her how to kill mice.
