Another dreary wet day indoors. Had to have hubby drive me to the hospital for blood work, so no morning hunt. Planning to hunt all day tomorrow; we should get fresh snow tonight which should make for a good morning hunt. Will probably be too cold for my fingers to TXT a blog from the field, though.
Posted in freeliefStayed in today, as I had a midday appointment. Got home from store and to my surprise, met my babygirl at the door, all in camo and orange. Hubby was on his way to take her with him for the evening hunt.
Made me so happy. Wish I could be a fly on the wall of that hunting blind! ;)

Posted in freeliefHunted in the afternoon as well, here’s the summary:
I’ve been plagued with really crappy hunt season weather. Today the wind was whipping, wet snow flying horizontal, nothing moving during daylight hours. Even with all of the people in the woods surrounding our property and all of the shots we heard around us, deer weren’t moving on our land.
Saw a buck for about 3 seconds … raised his head out of the tall grass long enough to see he had a smallish rack, maybe a small 6 pt. and then he vanished. Nothing else moved during shooting light.
Now that I’ve discovered how to TXT MSG directly to my blog, I’ll keep everyone updated that way. :}
Posted in freeliefor, Confessions of a TXT MSG Virgin.
I’ve never used text messaging on my phone before. Just never saw the need.
Sitting for hours in a blind, waiting to see deer, and needing to be exceedingly quiet, the value of the TXT MSG became clear: this is how I can lovingly annoy my husband without blowing my cover.
