My week days are still pretty quiet and not a lot going on. I'm having flashbacks to a few months ago where I was writing that things were quiet. So nothing has changed, really.
I did work on my crafty projects.
Crochet Suzette Scarf from Hooked by Robin. If you crochet, I recommend this pattern. It's good television crochet.
I am *almost* done with a cross stitch.
Oh, trust me, I'm *this* close to being done with it.

The weekends, though ... when hunting season started up my weekends became more busy. My weekends are almost always more busy than the week days. I'm sure that's how it is for everyone.
This time of year, though, usually it's a very full plate of activities. Hunting activities, preserving the harvest, ripping out the garden and getting things ready for when the snow flies.
Even though I don't have the usual full bounty of preserving I usually have, there are still a lot of things going on.
On Friday I started ripping out the garden. It was a bit bittersweet. I thought I took photos after I had put in a few hours of work. Nope.
Did I take photos on Saturday? Nuh uh.
I did take a quick photo of some of the chickens peeking in the front door.
Almost like the one dared the other one to go peeking in the door.
Sunday hubby and I "played" out in the woods. We were scoping out a new spot.
I forgot that I took a photo (well, a few actually) while we were out there.
Both weekend days were gorgeous days. Windy, but beautiful.
Have you ever wondered just how good blaze orange shows up?
It was youth hunt this past weekend, so we were wearing blaze orange while we were out and about.
Sunday my hubby and I did another big project. Nothing very exciting or thrilling. Just one of those things that inevitably needs to be done and we'd been ignoring it for a long time. Once we were done with it I felt inspired to go in to the craft room and do some work: cleaning out, purging and tidying up. Fun times.
It looks like the weather for most of the upcoming week is going to be somewhat decent. Which is great, because I still have a decent amount of outside work to do before snow flies. Knowing my luck, I will get everything taken care of and then the family will harvest a second deer and things will get untidy and then it will snow and freeze. That has happened to me in the past. Let it stay decent enough, weather-wise, until every thing is taken care of. Is that too much to ask for? Maybe. *grin*
Oh, and before I forget, I put out a flosstube last week. Did you watch it yet? If not, I highly recommend you do so. You might win something.

That little cross stitch is too cute! I like quiet weekends, and good luck getting a second deer. I haven't had venison since the cousin retired and moved back to Texas. I'd hunt them myself, but don't want to fool with anything that big.
Thanks! 😊
Two people definitely makes the whole endeavor so much easier.
