  Didn’t write much of anything all weekend we worked to catch up around the place. Honestly, that seems to be the best therapy of all for me and Chance. It may have been as the quote says.  Hard work is good for the soul, and it keeps you from feeling sorry for yourself because you…

    Turning off my mind is becoming such a problem. It goes so fast. Do I tell Chance? His mom won't be back if I do. How do I explain it? Do I let it ride? Which will hurt him the least. How do I get this under control, raise him and keep this place…

  I dropped Chance off at school, went in, and explained he had a bad night. Headed out to get a load of feed. Thinking I feel so bad for not making him stay home and sleep. My ass is dragging, so he has to be. Got a call from the sheriff’s office. They caught the…

  I'll start this by saying thank you to everyone who helped me learn what I should have already known, and that's on me for not learning when I should have. My last entry offended several people, never my intentions. But it happens and I stand by how. I appreciate every comment and the support for...

  Up early not sure why that keeps happening. Microwave breakfast, Jimmy dean for the save. Chance is up early in a good mood, guess because he gets to see Casey sure it’s not because it’s a school day. Feed horses while Chance got ready well was supposed to get ready. I ask him why Chance:…
