In the garden

Dom the troubled foal is with us at the moment. He is better than he was the last time he was here. There are glimmers of his old self. But he still spends most of his time on his computer, locked in his own world. What he is doing there is anyone's guess. He claims he is applying for jobs. But most of the time he seems to be playing online games or watching movies and TV shows.

Sheba is helpful in engaging him. She helped me wake him up this morning. He complained about her being on his bed but I think he liked it. He got up soon after, a lot earlier than he normally does.

In the afternoon we worked in the garden. He did not demure when I asked him to help me. He did a good job. So much potential in that boy. He is such a sweet child. Perhaps this is the way forward. The weather was sunny and warm. The garden is slowly coming back to life after the coldest part of the winter.
