So my husband failed to tell me we have a bird problem. Don’t get me wrong. I love birds! But, why do they have to make a home in my stove/microwave vent? I guess one of our modern conveniences in my colonial style home is now a nuisance? What did they do in centuries past?
Unfortunately we didn’t get any pictures of this incident. My son and I cleared out the cabinet over the microwave, rigged a bed sheet and some other objects to direct the bird to the window of the sink (all while I am standing on a rickety stool) and slowly pulled the vent pipe apart. In the split second that the pipe separated (I was about to pee my pants!) the bird bolted for the open window and then it was gone.
So, if you showed up to the store right at 10am today, just know I was a bit preoccupied! Mornings like this remind me, we just aren’t along for the ride in our homes… they require constant love and care.
