And sometimes there are good days!

My guy got discharged from probation and out of jail. He had (only) been waiting for a hearing for 2 months. I *don't* have 2 trials set for the same day. (Thursday). Certain internal office difficulties got ironed out in a very good way. The prairie-dogs and horses that live behind the office were in very good moods. I think it's the weather: cold in the morning and still getting up to 75 in the afternoon.

The prairie dogs are so cute getting all fat and happy in preparation for hibernation. They look happy anyway. They're definitely getting fat. I think prairie dogs hibernate, anyway. I'll have to google it. We have probably 20 of them making a village behind the office since spring. There are also horses and cows in the adjoining field. There's a colt and a filly as well. They're getting almost grown-up size. They were very frolic-y today. It looks like so much fun to eat grass and roll around without a care in the world. I figure if prairie-dogs and horses and cows can all co-exist like this, people will figure it out eventually. Or, if not, watching the prairie-dogs and horses and cows is definitely a happy diversion from life and the law.

All and all, a very positive day.

Gee, it's like I'm there looking out the window with you. Hope the long-legged beasts stay out of the rodents' holes! Yes, we peoples should all get along as pastorally...
