Another day

...in the life of this Weeble. Family meeting today. It's important to be united. I know my Dad is worried about how things are going in his life and at his age and state of health. Yet the fact that he organized a meeting to discuss it is just one more piece of evidence that he is still a strong and capable man who is just traveling through unfamiliar territory. What he needs to know is that we are here for him, and for Mom. We are, and there is no question that we can take care of them when needed.
I got quite a lot of homework done today. I have quite a bit more to do. But I don't feel the futility that I felt last semester. Tomorrow I will plug away at more of it.
The "thing" about school is I have to miss time at work. I do enjoy being at work, especially because when I am at work I get paid for that time! Beside that, I like the people I work with, and enjoy spending time with them. I am beginning to get to know some of the people in the program I'm in at school and suggested we have a night out to have some fun & get to know each other better. The suggestion was well received by one or two - we'll see what happens.
I miss Biff. I miss grooming him & petting on him. I miss the whole barn experience. Riding was only a small part of what I enjoy about having a horse. I miss the whole Stacey/Biff/Barn experience. Hangin out with other people there & watching them ride & take lessons; watching Stacey work horses. I'm missing it a lot.
