Only have to worry about getting those dust bunnies as they only like to play with those;0)


  For the "rest of the story" on having to dart Buck-ee.  He came through just fine although, he was out for quite a while and I was getting a bit worried but, he woke up and stayed up finally (after getting up and crashing a couple of times) but I bet he had one DOOZY of a hangover!!!


I had to take my charges to the dr. this afternoon (Delores and Dale) and got a frantic phone call from my step son telling me that one of the deer got out.   Jeepers! I was clear in Jackson getting something to eat and mind you, I had been so busy that that I hadn't had anything to eat all day so I was really looking forward to some salmon and a salad.  Thankfully, Dale and Delores had their meals quite a bit ahead of mine so they were finished just as mine came out so I ordered it boxed up and away we went.   I was assured that it wasn't my Sally (my tamest doe) so I was prepared to lose one forever as sometimes happens.    We got home and I saw her at the end of the fence in my headlights so I got everyone unloaded and I went out to make an apple trail to the holding pen.   I went back to where I had seen her but didn't find her so I just started dropping apple pieces back toward and past the barn but then I heard her following me.  She wasn't bothering with the apples so I stopped dropping them and just walked faster as she was trying to catch up to me.   I thought "oh this is good!" She hesitated when we got to the big gate but then she heard me calling to her and that is when I realized that it was my SALLY!   No wonder she followed me, I'm still her mamma but if I had known that it was her, I would have been a basket case and probably wouldn't have been able to drive home in one piece as I would have been worried sick!   I was afraid that I was going to find a dead deer on the highway as it was but to know that it was Sally......all I can say is "THANK GOD"  She is safe because she is like one of my beloved dogs;0)


I did finally get to eat my meal.  It wasn't quite as good warmed up but, at least I got to eat (not that it would hurt me not too;0)
