Best day ever . . .

What a day, I finally found my EQ7 which has been MIA since our move in August '11.  I purchased the upgrade in June of '10 but never even opened the package as I needed a new computer.  This past February I finally got a new computer but had to wait for the weather to warm up before I could begin "the search".  So for 2 days now, I have been looking out in the detached garage where all the quilting overflow is stored.  While rummaging through boxes out there, I discovered a mouse nest in a box of Christmas dishes.  I decided to leave it alone, and quickly moved the box out of the way. When I set it down, a mouse jumped from the box onto my chest and ran down my leg - I am surprised the neighbors did not come running as I was screaming my fool head off!  That was the straw that broke the camels back, so I decided to look once again in the house, in my Quilt Cave.  Lo and behold, I discovered it in a milk crate, still in the unopened shipping box!  I can't tell you how many times I touched it prior to the discovery today . . .

Oh my word! I thought I would have had a heart attack if a mouse jumped onto my chest and ran down my leg - seriously! So what did you all do about that mouse?
