I Miss My Deer Stand

As I work my way thru my day in my mommy, wife, "real life" world, I constantly feel like I am forgetting something. I go thru the grocery store list in hand, & I feel like I am forgetting something. When I am on my way to soccer, to the office, or where ever or what ever I'm doing I feel like I am missing something important. Then at 3:30 this morning, I awoke from slumber when it dawns on me, I miss my deer stand. I have, due to circumstances beyond my control, missed an entire month of this deer season & have not even loost one arrow at a real target this year. I mean call me crazy but I miss waking up early, putting on my camo, grabbing my Parker Sidekick, all the rest of my gear, a cup of coffee, & heading off to the woods. I miss sneaking thru the darkness to get to my perfect spot, & then just being still. I am talking peace times ten. As the sun starts rising on the horizon & mother nature wakes from her slumber. I become just part of the beautiful scenary. The squirrels start their marathon thru the trees and play tag thru the bottoms of the slough beds & the red birds are fighting to gather as many seeds, twigs, & whatever else they think they can use. I take a minute and listen to everything & the only sounds I hear are the noises the good Lord intends me to hear. NO Technology, no cellphones, no computer, no cars, and even sweeter absolutely nobody or nothing that needs my attention. For just a few hours its like visiting Heavan! Yes, I am there to hunt & trust me I am itching to take a shot, but even when I don't see a shot cross in front of me, I feel my stresses ease & I am able to turn them over to God. So now I understand I miss my deer stand & I need to get back there soon!
Now before I sign off today I must send out a Good Luck today & tomorrow to Amory High Soccer teams, I have faith in both teams & I am looking forward to Playoffs. Speaking of Playoffs, to my beloved NFL Houston Texas, practice, practice, practice, turn on your ipods & jam to your favorite tunes & ignore the experts who have counted you out this weekend against the RaVENS, I know that this game will not be easy but I have faith I still Believe, that my Texans will be victorious. Don't mess with Texans! Good Luck!
