Mold? Mildew? Mice?

Something is seeeeeeriously amiss in the land of Melli's Closet! This is getting to me even more than the disappearing people in Pigeon Falls! "The Odor" ... has now been with us for a bit more than a week. AC Man has assured us "The Odor" is not in our ducts... and now that Dennis has completely EMPTIED the closet, scrubbed out the closet, and vaccumed the closet, (what a good boy he IS because Melli GAGS and wants to vomit every time she gets near the closet) Melli has sucked it up enough to take her Super Nose INto the closet to try to find where "The Odor" is coming from --- and can't! But I do agree, it's NOT in the duct. I stuck my nose right up IN the duct -- and it smells FAR better in there than it does in the rest of the closet!!! Fortunately 90% of "The Odor" can be contained in the closet just by shutting the door! Of course, this does not help to air OUT the closet! But at this point I'm not sure I want it aired out -- I want the source FOUND and eliminated!!! I am seriously frustrated! Dennis is seriously frustrated! It's not like we don't have enough on our plates just with MOM and her issues, and the estate settlement issues revolving around the brother! We were doing AOK to deal with the AC breaking down - we can handle that. We are okay with the dirty ol' handyman and the nightmare HE had installing the new back door yesterday. We were even okay with waiting until today to have the back door actually lock! (tomorrow we deal with getting the storm door added) But "The Odor" has gotten the best of us! My children have been wanting to burn our home to the ground for about 3 years now --- and I'm almost ON BOARD for this solution right now!!! (God, please do not allow fire to happen to my house, because as many times as I've said this out loud we would surely be under investigation and NOT collect insurance money at this point!!! I do ask this in the name of my sweet and best friend, Jesus! Amen!) A Tornado might work though!
