4. Things are going well, except for the sudden appearance of DEER in my back lot

And that back lot is right next to my vegetable garden. They generally are contained in a wooded area on the other side of a busy roadway, about 1/2 mile from my house. Now with little traffic, they are boldly wandering through my suburban neighborhood and, it seems, settling down in the back lot to sleep.

I'm going out to buy some deer deterrent spray, tomorrow, although I doubt it will really work. So, I might also order some coyote urine. I seriously can't believe I'm even considering that!!!

Fortunately, that is my biggest stressor, right now.
