I stepped down wrong before and fractured the fibula where it met my ankle. Some years ago, we had skunks and raccoons set up housing (at different times) underneath our porch.. from the your mentioning screaming sounds I'm betting you have raccoons. Be careful, raccoons can be dangerous and very ornery. One big one came after my husband once on the porch, and all he had to defend himself was a boat oar. When I heard him calling me and saw what was happening, I filled a bucket with water and and splashed the raccoon with it. It backed off, but we called animal control after that.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09190709335203893977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2264863019487640784.post-37159628717683714162014-12-08T21:26:27.062-08:002014-12-08T21:26:27.062-08:00Oh yuck...

I hate it when critters get under our house! <br />I hope it isn't a skunk, but then you'd know by now, with all that racket! <br />A late Thanksgiving sounds wonderful with the kids. <br />I hope your hubby's ankle isn't too bad and he takes good care not to let it go before heading to the dr. if need be. <br />...the animal thing would drive me batty, that and 'needy' patients. (my hubby is the same way) <br />hope your week improves! <br />Patricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2264863019487640784.post-77027767799636858462014-12-08T10:57:34.472-08:002014-12-08T10:57:34.472-08:00Mama Pea, it is driving us "batty" here....Mama Pea, it is driving us "batty" here.

If you think it might be racoons, try baiting with marshmallows. They cannot resist them.

Must be the great care she's getting!<br /><br />Hope you can catch your under-the-house critters soon. That would drive me batty . . . plus I always wonder what dastardly damage they could be doing under there!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.com
