Today, it was my turn to be the “House Mouse”. What is the house mouse? It is the person who helps keep the Big House clean. I spent most of the day doing the breakfast dishes, lunch dishes, dinner dishes and all the pots and pans that pile up from all the hungry people who are living at Summit camp. I also vacuumed and mopped the floors.
I even got a chance to see the freezer. It is not like the one at your home. It is actually just a big hole in the ground under the Big House. It is very, very cold down there. That is a pretty creative idea and it saves on electricity too.
It may sound like a tough job, but it definitely has its advantages.
Everyone at camp, even the scientists and the camp manager, spend at least one day being the house mouse. It keeps the camp clean and running smoothly. Isn’t this a great idea?
Well, I am really tired and I still have all the dinner dishes to clean up! This house mouse will be happy to get back to work helping Brandon and Hannah with our aerosol research.
Good night.
