It's 19deg outside...and I just can't do it (go hunting)
....lol.

I keep telling myself I might see a piebald....or an albono doe.....black belly sheep....chupacabra....but it isn't working (mentally).

I even tried to tell myself I might get a peek at a big buck. That's all it took for me to roll back over.[8D]

I'll go in the afternoon.....when I don't have to put the Michelin Man suit on.

SISSY!!!!
Actually, I felt the same way Sunday Morning, plus, I only slept about 3.5 - 4 hours in the last 48, which also helped sway my opinion towards staying in my nice comfortable bed!!!!

LOL.....I knew I'd get some of this....but really....

I've filled 6 tags.....and I couldn't shoot a buck if he was gnawing my tree down. I kinda figured the reluctance to freeze my nads off would be understandable.

I'll go out this afternoon.....no issues.

Snow sissy. It was minus 8 with a foot of new snow on the ground when I woke this morning. Our high is going to be 19. Here's while it was snowing yesterday off my back porch.

Closer than that. I just opened the back door yesterday and stepped out onto the porch and snapped the thing. Maybe 10 to the kitchen. LOL Besides that, I've been sick, I have an excuse for cabin lock down.

Jeff, I got in a little spell like that. My motivation drops after I've killed. Usually though, it doesn't take all that much to get me motivated again. I want to hunt so bad right now, I can't stand it but the season is closed right now. I can put one more in the freezer in Tennessee before I have to call it a year. Whether I do that or not, it's been my most successful year to date. I'm pleased.
