SET A MOUSETRAP.
Hey, I've always been the mousetrap setter in my life. I also have some beautiful, fluffy little mousers living in my house with me and they do a great job of hunting the little critters.
Sometimes, believe it or not...you may live with a man who is squeamish about mice.
Sometimes, you may BE the girl who is squeamish about mice.
SOMEBODY has to be the one to set the trap, catch the mouse and then get rid of it. You might as well just suck it up and be the one. You will feel in turn both horrible and fantastic for being able to take care of it but, it's a good thing to know that you don't NEED someone else to do the dirty work for you!!

50 Day Things Girls SHOULD Do Challenge: Post #29
(29/50)
Girls SHOULD...
PAINT A ROOM.
Along with many other things a girl should do as a task just to feel a sense of accomplishment after completing it a good choice is to paint a room. I still have not managed to fully complete my sons room. His room has a bunch of different colours because it got started and not finished but also because it hasn't always been his room. Actually since I have lived in this house most of my life and moved back when my older two were little EACH of them has shared the room that I slept in when I was a kid too. It still has mauve walls! lol but also some blue and some green which seemed much more appropriate for a boy...now I plan to panel the wall because I just lack the energy for a paint job.
At one point I planned to paint a mural on the wall but, I never did get around to that! Whatever you decide to do for yourself it is a big job but, really does make you feel good if you can complete it!
I did manage to paint my kitchen once though I really think sometimes that it should be redone but, I think that I will wait until I'm ready to have the floor and ceiling done as well.
Anyway, if it isn't really your thing then try something else. The important thing is to try to do some jobs yourself just for the experience and the satisfaction!

50 Day Things Girls SHOULD Do Challenge: Post #28
(28/50)
Girls SHOULD...
REPAIR THINGS IN YOUR HOUSE.
It is good to be able to fix some of the small things that need fixing in your house. So whatever tasks these are you should not be averse to tackling some of them.
It is great if you have a man in your life that can do these little jobs for you but, some of us don't!
So you should never be afraid to try and fix them yourself! It will give you a sense of accomplishment and capability and you will know that you can take care of yourself which is very important knowledge to have and may actually open the door to the ideas of many other things you can try to accomplish as well!
