Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
11/18: being remembered
By a childhood friend. We're not in frequent contact, but she does send me a birthday card every year. This year's card was waiting for me in the mail when I got home after work. Just seeing her handwriting made me smile.
We found and got home and locked up 4 of the missing cattle this afternoon. I went out again this afternoon hoping to get more searching done but the weather was closing in fast, then by chance I ran into a hunter that had just been through all the area I wanted to look at and he assured me no cattle or tracks were up there. Being in the right place at the right time saved me a long cold afternoon, I think I'll curl up with a book instead. :)
I'm sorry you've had cattle gone missing, April, but what great timing that the hunter was able to tell you he hadn't seen anything. I hope you enjoyed your afternoon with a book!
