Today I am grateful for:

Good sleep.

My Sweetie being in the house when I woke up.

He headed off to the climbing gym in the afternoon.

I briefly spoke with Sister E, who was "letting me know that TW seems to be sorry about what she said" and blah blah.

This isn't about TW being sorry, and at this point it doesn't matter to me that she apparently was going to try to go for a walk today.

This is now about me, and my needs, not for people to try to smooth things over for her so I can just go back to things the way they were.

I did chores, and it wasn't horribly cold. About -17 C. It's supposed to be colder again tonight, so the goats can stay in the garage still.

I went to the barn and worked with River.

He did well with our ground work, but got horribly distracted when K and L were moving horses from the corral to the barn (they bring in a few at night when it's very cold).

It annoys me that he gets so distracted, and it's hard to get his attention back enough to work with him.

I do think that tonight, part of the issue is that it was cold, he knew it was also feeding time, and he was probably hungry.

I did chat with L for a while, and she told me how much she likes the mug I made for her. She is fun to joke around with, and it's so nice for a change to talk with someone about something FUN.

I miss fun. I don't get enough of it.

Then I came home, and my Sweetie got home shortly after. He had a good night of climbing.

We ate, and chatted for awhile before he headed to bed.

I agree that FUN is in short supply these days. A fun evening with friends turned sombre when one of them predicted she'd be fired from her much-loved job on Thursday. We were not able to inject much fun into the party.

Turns out she was right; she was fired on Thursday due to "restructuring and finances".
