These days have flown by.

 

No deer yesterday.  The guys got home pretty early to watch football and bone out the deer that was hanging.  

 

As usual, I putzed around in the kitchen.  Had enough breakfast burritos left that I didn't have to make any breakfast for this morning.

 

The guys wanted venison steaks for dinner so I decided to get the backstraps and tenderloins out of the fridge and get them cut up.

The cats LOVE venison.  I can hardly keep them out of it.  I cut off little bits for them and they purr very loudly.

 

Cut into nice thick steaks

I had a package of doves in the freezer from September, so they grilled some of those up too.

Sooooooo, Christmas is coming early for Shelby.  My existing dishwasher is disgusting.  It's too embarrassing to even post a picture.  I've tried cleaning it with citric acid....etc.  it's just simply time for a new one.  I asked for one for Christmas, not really expecting it to happen.  But, the guys pulled in with one yesterday!  They are now trying to install it.  Of course, we are missing a key part so they are off to the big city.  Nothing is ever easy around here . I will be majorly cleaning my kitchen after this ordeal is done lol.  I so appreciate it.  It's so shiny and pretty I don't even want to use it.  Our friend also raised a cabinet in my laundry room so I can actually open the washer and put clothes in without having to hold the lid with one hand.  I won't know what to do with myself after all of this :) 

 

Anyway, hopefully they will be done with this chore in a couple of hours and then they are going out to deer hunt late afternoon and evening.

 

I'm pondering dinner.  Mexican sounds good.  I'll think on it longer.....

 

I gotta do some cleaning real quick while the coast is clear ;)
