Yesterday was a terrible day. I spent the day dealing with an issue at my son's high school which still isn't resolved. I went to bed feeling disappointed with the teacher in question, upset with the kids at the school, fearful for my son. I came home from work feeling like the world was weighing me down. I had even placed a frantic call to a friend saying I thought I was having a damn heart attack. I never want to have a day like that again. Coming from work, exhausted and stressed out, I snapped on Hunter's leash and we took our three mile walk through rural country. We saw cows, horses, ducks in ponds, hardly any people. I came home and went into the barn. While I was climbing up to the rafters to get hay I felt two hooves in my back. I turned to see who it was and there was Brie, my beloved goat. It made me smile. I'm counting my blessings that I have my barn and my animal friends to make me feel whole again.
I hope things get resolved at school. It is great having those animals to cheer us up when reality sucks. Hope today is better.
