dark and snowy day

Large group music ensamble continued today. My favorite choir to watch was a middle school from up north. There was a little boy on the very end who had bright red hair. He was one of two boys in the choir. I'm guessing he was in about 6th grade. All the girls standing in that row towered over him.
Grass and snow. I cut the front lawn the other day. Then I went around the perimeter of the back yard once and decided to fill up the tank with more gas. As I was screwing the lid of the gas can back on, I noticed a handwritten sharpie note "40:1 mix - Trimmer Only." Oops. I'm glad it snowed. Now I have another excuse not to cut the lawn.
"How's your life?"
"Ehh, today was a bit boring. I can't wait until the end of the school year."
"Hmm. My leg fell asleep."
"Didn't that happen the other day, too?"
"Sure did."

I was quite happy when I got home. After school is the best time of the day.
But at home everyone is stressed out and upset. Yelling.
I tried being upset and sad along with them, but it didn't work. I even tried crying.

I'm still smiling.
