oh no

I just went out to fill the hummingbird feeder and looked over at the road and there was a dead deer. It probably has been there all night. I wondered why the chickens went into their coop all by themselves last evening. Usually I have to shuffle (push or lift them) them into the safety of the inner coop cause they want to sleep on the roost in the outside run instead. I thought it odd that they were inside already. They did that when Wings got killed by the hawk last winter too. Now I bet that they saw the deer get killed and it scared them. A reminder of the dangers of life "out there".

I've been worrying about my knees lately - they both hurt when I do things like try to squat. They were pretty much fine till last winter. Especially my left knee hurts a lot, even just laying certain ways in bed. I talked to a friend who is dealing with knee pain and she reassured me that it is normal - maybe I'm just starting arthritis. I decided that I am going to try and stretch it more. Maybe it's something similar to the heel spur I had last year. A case of my body getting tight. No reason for it - just something that happens to people. Now before I get out of bed in the morning, and as often as I can remember to do it I bend my knee as far is it'll go and hold it there. In addition to doing my heel spur stretches. I seem to have a body that wants to be tight and tense. I can feel the tension in my neck and shoulders all the time.

A holiday. Candy is doing family things so no outing with her today. Sebby says he is willing to go somewhere and do an outdoorsy thing with me but he wants to sleep in till 11. I haven't decided yet where would be a good place to go. Biking or hiking - need to find out what he wants to do...
