No creature was stirring, not even a mouse

There is currently a mouse under one of our living room sofa chairs. Don't know where it came from, but hopefully I can get at it before the cats do so I can put it outside.

To continue the phenomenon of wildlife that is my life, mum and I almost ran into a deer while coming home tonight. Luckily mum had slowed down to look at a store to see if it were open or not and then all of a sudden about 20 feet in front of the car a deer/doe ran out onto the road to cross it. The area where my mum and I have moved to have a lot of deer, so there's signs up along the road warning people about them.

This is what my mum said just as the deer ran in front of the car (she did not plan on saying this beforehand):

Me: *screams*
Mum: Oh, deer.

We now have a Christmas tree up and decorated. Mum and I had to go grocery shopping this afternoon and the place we went to had small potted pine trees with some baubles on them, so now I have a real Christmas tree this year! I haven't had a real one in years, so I'm pretty happy with it.

Yay real tree! They are better for the environment anywho. Smaller carbon footprint (usually, provided it's localish) than the plastic kind. And they smell good :D

We've had the artificial one for years, so it is refreshing to have the real one. :)

Honestly, if I could tape some of those moments I would post them for everyone.

I want to come hang out with you and your mom sometime...you guys crack me up!

I was driving home in the snow the other night and I rounded this corner by my house and there were SIX deer standing in the road. They ran off into the trees, but it was really surprising, because I basically live in a city. They do still show up from time to time though. I love it when that happens!
