Deer at play
My sister in law called to ask us to go out to her house and check on it. She lives further out in the country than we do and I like going out there and just sitting to watch the sunset and the animals that come out of the woods by her place at night.
I have been under some heavy pressure lately and I needed to just go somewhere that I can relax and that is what I did as I watched the deer frolic in the woods behind her house. This is the only one I have pics of but there were three buck, two doe and four little ones running about like kids at play. This doe was leary but she did come in and it was kinda nice to see her. Watching the animals relaxes me though.

Fuzzy navels and such.....
I am sitting here sipping fuzzy navels as I post this. Needless to say it is a very laid back atmosphere here tonight. I am very partial to this drink. Glad my husband is the one who mixes the drinks here or I would finish the bottle all by myself. I am not much of a drinker but I do like to kick back with some mixed drinks, a wine cooler or a cold beer on occasion. I am thinking I may go out and get some arbor mist next week. They have some good ones out there.

Banks...
I have been on the phone with my bank again. It seems as though they are always taking money out of my account without my knowledge and I have to get on the phone and tell them about it. I guess that is the price we pay for living in a day of computers and such where people can figure out ways to get into our accounts. Last month they took almost three hundred out. It was taken from an atm in Pakistan and we all know what a lovely vacation spot that is so why the bank even put up a hassle when I questioned it, I don't know. Of course they must think I go to pakistan on a weekly basis and draw money out there in LaHore which is where it was taken from.
It is bad enough they are charging me 30.00 on a six dollar check my daughter made out on her checking account. I am the payee but she has access to her account too. She makes checks and does not tell me. Much like my husband does. *s* He gets a little forgetful. I guess I am the one who has to keep them on their toes and do the bookkeeping.

Ronniecat
This is Ronnie..... He has been with us about a year now. He was left off at McDonalds and there were some teen aged boys throwing rocks at him. He is really one of the sweetest cats. So loving. We were not going to add a third one so soon after losing our Fuzzy but I think we did good.
I finally got the papers to get the house refinanced. We bought it when interest was much higher five years ago and by refinancing, we will save about 400 bucks a month.
I spent part of the day burning off some CDs. I think the best thing about my new computer is the cd burner. Even better than the dvd player. I do not watch many dvds on here. I prefer to watch them with the family and it is kinda hard to get them cowded around the computer. *s*
I took Sassy and Ollie to the vets and found out he has hook worms so have to give him the meds tomorrow. I had to give him heartworm meds a few months ago and he is cleared up from them. I was so glad to know that. Dogs die from it and it us such a senseless thing for them to die from with all the help out there. Taking them to the vets for yearly checkups and keeping them up on their checkups for worms are all one has to do.
