Misidentified Mice: A Grandmother’s Thwack

One day, my grandma was sitting peacefully in her bedroom until a sudden cry echoed through the halls. 'Ahhh!!!' came from her bedroom, followed by, 'What is that? Why are you screaming?!'

She emerged, only to find a mouse inches away from me. But it turned out to be a keychain! She mistakenly thought it was a real mouse and started beating me with a stick. To this day, we still laugh about how a cute little keychain caused such a commotion.

Strange Living Room Guest: A Constant Presence

One day, there was a mysterious figure that was simply sitting on our living room table. We didn’t know who or what it was, but allowed it to stay vigilantly. It usually disappears at night, but always returns before sunrise. It’s a peculiar creature, especially since it dislikes sunlight and can come in all sizes, ranging from small to large. Sometimes, we even find them in our bed! Despite the oddity, they are often silent and watch us intently.

House Built for Special Features: Plumber’s Quandary

When building our house, we had a unique request: we wanted to install a water fountain in the kitchen and a urinal in the main bathroom, which was referred to as the 'Men’s Room.' After all, it was part of our custom build, and our plumber knew to install these fixtures.

However, a challenge arose when installing the urinal. It was designed for an 8-inch cinder block wall, but our wall was constructed with 2times;4 studs. The plumber had to tear out the completed wall to make it all fit. It was certainly an entertaining and frustrating experience for him.

Roll Top Desk Alligator: A Souvenir from Florida

My husband has a roll top desk that houses an alligator head as a decorative souvenir from Florida. While it’s less scary than encountering live alligators basking in the sun near a nature reserve, the decoration still has a eerie charm to it. When considering all these bizarre and intriguing household items, it’s a testament to the creativity and quirkiness of home decor.

To sum up, such odd discoveries not only add character to our homes but also create stories that we can recall with a chuckle. If you have a similar story to share, feel free to leave a comment! Live the moment! Thanks for reading!
