{Ups and downs}

The last few days have sort of felt like a jumble of mixed emotions. Bear with me as I sort some of them out here.

We had a great time with friends at Celebration Northwest, which made me happy, but then we had to leave and have a 9 hour drive, an overnight stay and another 2 1/2 hours the next day, which made me sad, but we got to have dinner at Panda Express with some great friends who we also hung out with later that night, which made me very happy.

Someone rudely informed me that bread makes you fat (not skinny), which made me sad, but then I made a marvelous bruschetta (eaten on BREAD!!!), which made me very happy, but then my mouth reacted to the tomatoes and vinegar which made (and is still making) me sad.

I took the kids back to school shopping and got two free lunchboxes and had a coupon for $15.00 off, which made me happy, plus it was shopping, which made me happy, but we still have shoes and supplies to buy, which makes me sad.

We still have shoes and supplies to buy, which makes me happy. :-)

(Are you following me so far?)

Summer is almost over, which makes me sad, but we've been having a great time milking every drop of summer that is left, which makes me happy.

It is Fair Week in Missoula, which makes me happy.

We ran into my gramma's sister at the mall today, which made me happy and sad.

In short, it's been ups and downs around here, which makes me so thankful that when I feel like I am on a seesaw, God is faithful to me all the time!

'Til next time,

Mrs. Meek
