Today I finished these pieces, and photographed them and then went to the barn and rode the lovely blonde Haflinger pony in a long lesson and then through the woods and helped out in the afternoon, enjoying the sun and the mud before it turns to snow and other vile weather.

Our neighbors were having a game night so Alice and I went over and were sociable. We taught them the water buffalo song, and took over Quirkle and the triangular version of Blokus. I think everyone had a pretty good time. Aerin was in town being sound techie at a Northamptones concert. Al was working, and came home and flopped – he couldn’t face people.

I am SO PLEASED February is done. I always come into it thinking maybe it won’t be so bad this year, and I always get whiny and sick of it a week before it ends. I think it feels like an entire month of Mondays. I am looking forward to March.

I actually have a couple thoughts about February’s project, but I am so tired I am about to tip over, so I’ll have them tomorrow instead.

Friday was also busy – I went to a Owaji Island (also known as Bunraku) puppet demonstration, which was very cool, and then participated in the Parent, Student and Teacher Talent Show to benefit the band. I was in the music stand drill team. We were very silly.

Thursday was busy. I did ride, and I did well in circus, but failed to accomplish any computer thing. I was whiny about February still happening.
