I'm not talking about what the heat is doing to my temperment.
Though in Texas, we're regularly seeing the thermoment top 100. In fact as we drove through Cuero, Texas last week, we saw a mind-numbing 107 flash on the bank sign.
I want to talk about a different kind of summer madness.
Our "deer herd" has had their fawns.
All are a joy to watch--especially the tiniest who WAS limping on 3 legs, but is now scampering about quite well on all 4. What I wanted to share though was the following video. What a precious baby. Reminded me of my own child at times.
You know the drill. Parents are standing there watching. Everything is going fine. SUDDENLY, child runs off, headlong, straight into a tree. Notice--no one moved for a moment. "Mom and dad" seem to watch, make sure baby is okay, which I'm happy to report she was.
Yes, I remember those moments with my child.
I also have those same moments with my manuscript--where it spins off, top speed, then bumps into something and richochets into a different direction. It's part of what makes writing an exciting job.
Deer, children, books - - - all a part of SUMMER MADNESS.
I hope you are enjoying yours as much as I'm enjoying mine.
