holy shit
Right so Monday afternoon I get a message from Mitch telling me there was a fire at Zoe's. Mitch likes pulling my leg so I didn't believe him. 5 mins later it's on the radio that a barn at Rohirrim Farm had burnt down! It was true as true could get. Thankfully they only lost one barn, no horses or animals were hurt, just scared. and no one was seriously injured beyond smoke inhailation.
Mom talked to Zoe yesterday and she said the barn basically blew up. No one knows what happened, one minute the kids were coming up the yard for lessons after school and the next her barn went. The fire blew windows out of the new barn and the house, melted window blinds and all that. It was still smoldering yesterday I guess.
We were up Tuesday night to drop off feed and stuff, since they lost everything that was in that barn. It was such a mess and a really sad sight. Last night I went down to the racetrack (they have 6 horses being kept there, the rest are scattered around the city at other barns) and poor Q was such a case of nerves. She's just so stressed out!
It's been in the paper here all week. It's gotten pretty big. A lot of people from the area are donating things like crazy for them. Which is really good and helpful. I may go back down to the track tomorrow and help out since I have nothing else to do. I spent 4 hours down there last night just mucking stalls, feeding, grooming and talking to the horses. I would have went today, but like every one else I'm a case of nerves too. It hit pretty hard when I heard it, I didn't know whether to cry or call and make sure everyone was ok. Instead I started hitting locals up for donations :D
I stayed home from school today, after seeing the ruins and the poor horses I just let things play on my mind and the more I stressed over it, the worse it got. Now I'm a ball of nerves with an upset stomach. Great!
I called the school this morning to tell them I was sick, with the program I'm in we're only allowed to take 5 days off. My 5 days are up. But there was no way I could have went today. I would have just sat there and did nothing anyway. So they told mom to call the education board. They'll decide if I get to go back to school on Monday or not. How stupid is that?! I think reguardless if it's 6 or 60 days as long as you're serious about your education they should let you back. Kids miss more than 5 days all the time, one girl missed 2 weeks and when the teacher asked her she said the first few days she was hung over- HUNG OVER! then the rest she just didn't want to go. She'll still in the program. Dumbasses. Meh if they tell me I can't go back come Monday. I'll just got over their heads with the case. I'm good like that.
I think that's all i have to say. I'm hungry, I haven't really wanted to eat since I heard the news Monday afternoon. So it's time to try and find something. Maybe sleep, I haven't done much of rthat either this week.
