12/8

Arrow went to a family to whose home he kept visiting while we were all gone. They begged and begged to let us keep him and cried etc, so Clark decided that he would probably have a better life there since he and we are gone so often. Lily seems much happier!!! I think it was the right thing to do. Had my "gold beads" encounter this morning w/ Ami in tow as a witness. They were very nice and I am going in in the morning and we will weigh them. I'm praying that I am the one who is wrong and that the difference is the chain. I would really like to know these guys are honest because they seem so nice. Tonight is the A and B 10s team party. Should be fun. M went to a personal trainer today to come up w/ a prog to help his back pain. ( Should last about a week w/ enthusiasm, but maybe I'll be wrong on that too). Tomorrow night is the Meadowood Xmas party for members. About the only thing they ever give us. There is always a HUGE turnout cause all is free. We are going to dinner w/ Rue and John after. Everyone keep trying to hwlp Dad get over his doublt and fear re the :project". I feel the failure he fears is guaranteed w/out at least trying. I know this is so hard on all of you but maybe together we can get through to him. Love to all, Momma
