Willy came home tonight. He says nothing is wrong, but I know different. He has been doing so many unusual things, but I suppose he is under so much stress from his job. They aren’t treating him right, and it’s not fair. He is a good man, why can’t they see that. He works so hard for his family, and they are treating him like he has nothing to offer. Thirty seven years he has given them. So terrible. The boys are acting so rudely to their father. I don’t understand why they can’t get their lives together. They are both so smart and handsome. They really should be getting great jobs, and having a family. We can’t support them forever.

Willy is on the road again. I am so proud of him! He works so hard for the family, but I am sure he is getting exhausted. I miss him so much. The house just isn’t the same without him. The boys miss him too. They adore their dad. He is such a great role model for them. Biff is doing so well in school. He is the football star! Willy and I are so proud of him, he is going to be someone great! Even Happy is excited for Biff. Hopefully Happy will find his own talent, and do great things too.
