It started out ok, but the last half of it has been kind of crazy.
I had to work in the field today. Job was scheduled 8-4. We were about 15 minutes late getting there because of traffic. Halfway through the afternoon, one of the guys had to take our trailer to get a tire fixed because we noticed it was deflating during the day. So we lost some productivity and ended up leaving at 5:15. Get back to the warehouse, finish up what I had to, and got in my car to go home.
Had a message on my voicemail - one of the dogs got out, the microchip people left a message with the name and phone [HASH] of the person who called them. I called him, found out he lives around the corner and said I'd come get my dog.
DS had band practice at 7:00. DH fed him and got him to band. I got the dog, dropped her at home, and went up to school for a band chaperone meeting at 7:15. Meeting takes until 8:45 (yawn). DS gets done at 9:00, so I just waited for him.
While I was in the work truck on the way home (I'm not driving), I catch up on Facebook and find that a friend of ours (someone we've know through his business for close to 20 years) lost his son to suicide overnight. So shocked I was speechless. This young man was 18, supposed to be starting college this semester. Not sure why he felt he needed to take this step, but he did.
I am sitting here at 10:15 eating chips and queso because I didn't have dinner, so physically and mentally tired that I just don't know what to do with myself. Guess I need to finish my chips and go to bed.

There is just not explaining. My sons Best friend committed suicide also. He was an Honor student at the college he was in. Seemed like a happy kid. We have know him since he was five years old. It is so hard and there is just no making sense of it.
