Oh Deer!

So this morning I hit a deer. Thank heavens I was driving the Expedition. Deer frequent our small Wyoming town, especially in the fall. Well, I was driving through town and was, luckily, going slow. Two big dogs chased the deer into the road and right into my path. It was pretty freaky! I really was lucky I was going slow 'cause my airbag did not go off, nor was there major damge to the vehicle. It killed the deer though and really shook me up! I called Rob at the fire station and he came in the engine to calm me down and waited with me until the police came. It was quite the spectacle I am sure! Rob try to make light of the situation by saying that at least I hit a buck and that it was during hunting season. He probably would've gutted the thing and taken it home if given the chance.

Yikes! Sorry about the deer! Happy to hear about your great day! Is there anything better than the giggles of your own child? It is something that can brighten even the darkest days!

Hi Juli...you certainly have some challenges. It is interesting how all of us have circumstances in our lives that sometimes overwhelm and try us. Even though the challenges may be different, I think that we can learn from each other's experiences to aid us with our own trials. Great blogging idea!
