I forgot about the deer ticks, but now that I will be outside more, I have to be aware of them. For some reason, they love me -- I don't think I look like a deer, but the ticks must have poor eyesight! Several years ago, each day after I had been working out in the yard before I took my shower, DH would do a tick check on my back. Then I have to endure the chiggers, which I haven't forgotten about! They love me, too!
