Lately, I’ve been keeping the blinds in our kitchen window drawn.
When there is snow on the ground, it’s a must.
Why?
Well, it’s not what you would expect. No, we’re not cooking meth and we don’t have nosy neighbors (I don’t think). It’s because every time I walk by the window, I see this in my peripheral vision and I always do a double take…
… because I think it’s a buck, standing majestically in the neighbor’s yard, just waiting to be noticed. Every time.
But, it never is a buck. It’s always just two mailboxes plus a bare tree.
It’s just easier to close the blinds.



my goodness, it does look like a deer!!
It’s almost like I can’t keep up with your posts anymore! Like!
I had to do a double take before reading the rest as I really thought it WAS a buck. Too funny.
