Oh, deer!

On our little stretch of property where I don't want to live....ever of heaven, this deer has been sighted several times.  

We think it's an Axis deer, unusual in this part of the country, and because of the size, we think it is a female.  I'm pretty sure Axis deer came from India and most are now located in Texas.  Maybe she ran away from home!

She's a beauty and we hope she stays and enjoys the feeder you see in the background.  She would actually be smart to stay because I've declared this land a sanctuary where there will be no hunting.  One day last week, we saw three of the little fellas at the feeder.  I love seeing them and don't like the thought of eating one of them even though my boys are all hunters.

It's been a pretty good week for mama.  She has seen daddy twice during the night.  I asked her how she feels when she sees him there.....happy, sad, frightened?  She said If I could get out of this chair, I'd like to kiss him!  Yesterday when I was there I asked about her night and she said well, I didn't have any visitors.

Which leads me to this.......

Russell and I have been walking about four times a week.........it's our get fit plan and we hope it works because that's all we're doing.  One day while walking, I was asking who would take care of us when we get old and his answer was let's just keep healthy so we can take care of ourselves and maybe one day we'll just drop dead of a heart attack.  ???????????  Hello........not if we stay healthy!  We won't worry about that today, we won't worry about that today, we won't worry....oh, who am I kidding.

After a nice lunch with a friend and her three grandchildren, I emailed her to say how much I enjoyed spending time with her........she wrote back to say when she was praising her grands for being so nice while I was there, one said Yia, Yia, she's our friend too and we like visiting her.  Made me feel real good!
