That Happy and the Sad

Isn't amazing the variety of things that life will dish a person?  I just seem to be getting both ends of the spectrum as of late.

Happy:  Loan funded yesterday, FA-UESH.  In fact, Mr Loan even called while I as at Kohls {see below} so I didn't even have to talk to him.  Sa-weet.

Sad:  Part of the downer in my life is that my mom can't come.  My parents plate is pretty full right now.  I wish I could go help them "eat" it... but I can't.  Darn marching band.

Happy:  See size 14 post below {so happy}

Sad:  Drew's gone A. LOT.  And P isn't sleeping.  And she gets out every single book that we own and glances at it and throws it on the floor.  If I clean up another book, I may die.  Just sayin'....

Happy:  Got our property tax bill today and it's over 1k less then last year.  {wow, happy}  I really feel like all these savings lately are leading me to get a smartphone.  Don't you think?  Of course that is all because our house value is quite ugly right now.  But what do I care, I have a new mortgage? :)

Sad:  Maintenance light comes on in the car.  Just that ONE. MORE. THING. I didn't need yesterday.  Luckily, the car is Drew's issue.  How he will deal with it, I don't know.  But it's all him.  Right? :)

Happy:  I am LOVING the fall TV.  I feel so happy when there are lots of shows I want to watch on my DVR.

Sad: Did I mention my mom can't come?  I really look forward to that visit during marching band.  So nice to see other adults.  Also, I haven't worked in a while thanks to my finger injury.  I did an online class, but it's not the same as seeing my work peeps.  Hoping to see them tomorrow. :)

Anyway, I think God dishes so many blessings our way.  If only he'd teach P how to clean up books... although I guess that may be my job...
