Finally able to rest.

This horse is amazing. What a spirit. This sounds kind of silly but we could learn a lesson here. Barbarino really had a good attitude during his trials of the last eight months.
I admire that in people and critters. Why not? Some critters have better attitudes than some people I know. Yes, I know the whole animals don't have feelings but you what? I don't buy it. God gave them their own kind of souls, not in His image of coarse, but a soul nonetheless. Just have to look in their eyes.
So Good-Bye Barbarino. Thanks for your example of courage.

Living somewhere in a fog


Yup that is so right. I am living in a fog.
It is a fog called 17 credits. Many would think that shouldn't be difficult, and you would be right. It isn't difficult, or it wouldn't be if is wasn't 17 credits of busywork. I am positive that one class along has caused the deaths of many cottonwoods. This class will also cause me to kill many cottonwoods. Not to mention the ink cartridges I will have to buy. Out of all those credits there are only 3 credits that's difficult and that is Applied Business English. I can write just fine (you would never it). I passed English 101 just fine. But this. This. Is. Grammar. Apparently I forgot more that I knew. What makes me mad is it that I can write with out knowing what an indirect object or an object of the preposition are. I ask you, WHO CARES, other than an English teacher.

I have just enjoyed 4 days off thanks to the snow and ice we have had. Yes I know it was only 3 inches. I will take what I can get. Back to school tomorrow. We were supposed to have a test on Wednesday and one tomorrow. I wonder if they will give us till Monday? hmmm. I guess I better study.

I have read a few good books since me last post. I may get around to telling you about them sometime.
