An Unpleasant Scare and a Very Pleasant Trip

I've been busy and not blogging.

First reason was my lymph nodes were all swollen and the oncologist thought my cancer had returned. I had Melanoma 6 years ago. So I was busy getting scans and going to doctors. Even when the PET/CT came back clear she assumed they were missing something and wanted a conference with the radiologist and a biopsy done. She also told me that there was a spot on the bone on the CT of my brain. But finally it was decided that the spot is not cancerous and there was nothing on the full body scan. Halle-lulu!!! Thank You, Lord!

Second reason was a nice visit in New Braunfels. That's always fun and relaxing. It was definitely HOT there though! Already 100 degrees with a very hot wind. Here are some photos of about half of the deer that show up when they feed them. There are several there all the time.This fellow was walking across their back porch and my brother said that he must be after our scorpions. WHAT??!! It seems they have found several lately, inside and out! Sure enough, there was one on the window screen that must have been the reason for the Road Runner's visit. I'm glad to report that we didn't see any others while we were there. Some people freak out over snakes or mice...for me it's scorpions!

This is what you see in the yard when you wake up in the morning. My sweetie said it reminded him of shoppers who camp out at stores to be the first in line for a sale. These deer want to be first in line to be fed.Meet Doris. She is the boldest. She will come right into the garage and doesn't mind eating out of the bucket. Right now she's eating for two or three.
