That's the way I felt Monday. We had company and didn't hear them come in.
My kitchen window must be magic because I never know what I'm going to see and never know how long a critter will be with us. As I was pouring my cup of coffee and watching the dawn, I thought I was seeing things in the field across our road. My first thought was, "Oh my gosh there must be a pack of coyotes in the field". As I watched, a little more light focused my eyes on Antelope, lots of Antelope. I was excited that it was not coyotes and twice as excited to watch the herd.
Our company was with us from dawn until dusk. For once, I kept finding things to do in the kitchen just so I could look out the window and watch these amazing things. I was so happy when they decided to lay down in early afternoon because that gave my legs a rest, along with my eyes. At first count there were 18, later on the number was 25 and the last count I took was just before dark and there were over 32 milling around. (Hard to count them because sometimes 2 would almost look like one).
I felt some what sad the next morning when I looked out my window and seen "nothing". Our company had left just as quiet as they had arrived.
