Supposed to be Wordless Wednesday

But, I choose not to participate in that today. I will post something "wordless" at the end of this post but, for now you get words!
I would like to announce that we have been skunk spray free for a week and a half as of today! YEAH 219!!!
Seriously, it's ridiculous what we have went through with this stupid skunk. I practically got kicked out of Shopper's the last time because apparently, I stunk the place up. Me Too got sprayed, J was bathing him and I headed to Shopper's to purchase all things scented. I was bad, really bad. Worst ever actually. So anyway, I got laughed at, glared at, sniffed (yes, sniffed! can you believe a man asked to smell me?) and pointed at. I didn't know wether to be embarassed or proud. Regardless, this is the point in my life that I declared war on our backyard.
Many people say "Why don't you just tie the dogs up so they can't get back there?" Now of course this is an option; however, not a good one for 219, Buff Buff or, Me Too. They are very rarely tied up so the tangles that ensue are ridiculous and frustrating. We live here! This is our yard, not his/hers. This thing isn't even living in our yard. Currently Pepe lives under that damn chicken coop. Can you believe that?! These chickens will be the death of me, I swear.
So, we now have a motion sensored spotlight and a motion sensored ultrasonic noise machine. Death calls the back corner of our yard "The Death Machine". Good job dear, now lets get rid of the chickens.
We have heard many different ways to get rid of a skunk from everyone. Let me tell you something, nothing works. Next time you know someone who has a pesky squatter, tell them that you know someone who went through this and they should not waste their money on do it yourself skunk removers. Purchase a trap or hire a pest removal company to do it for you. We have spent so much money on all these DIY's that we could have hired a pest company to remove our stinky neighbour and been done with it months ago. Live and learn I guess.

P.S. - My apologies for any typos and bad grammar in this one. I am on the laptop (vs. the desktop) and I hate the keyboard on it. Also, I am going to be late for work if I don't put a wiggle in it so, no time to proof read.
