two horses (Kaboose and Ruby) all walking, all lateral to forward to lateral again
one physical (healthy, but pudgy)
one flu shot (virtuous is me) (also pained shoulder is me)
one child to circus, and two home (good trick, that)
Plus some of the angst seems to be receding. I was blindsided by the anger in the distress of Bully's owner on Monday, just before I had to hang the show, and I guess I sat on it kind of hard, and by yesterday I was a shaking weeping wreck.
Al talked me down, and I got to visit with one of my oldest riding friends, and she was so sympathetic about Bully (happened to her too, and another one, both awful, and unexpected, and devastating)that I could feel my issues slowly melting. I am better than I have been for weeks. Witness, riding two horses. Which also serves to improve me, and it goes around...
Reception on Saturday, for which I must make tiny fabulous bites of food that will not make crumbs in the library. I am thinking tiny shortbreads, and tiny crackers with cheeses, and then I will rely on the kindness of Nonie's baking people. That is my task for Friday.
