There were HIGHS, then there were lows.
Friday: a high- my Sunshine came home from college for a week.
Friday: a low- eldest step-daughter has car accident.
Saturday: a high- birthday shopping for Sunshine.
Saturday: a low- Joey Oreo-y, one of our boomerang cats that found his way home from the farm, is noticeably sick and is not eating or drinking.
Sunday: a high- worshipping at church with all 3 of our girls.
Sunday: a low- Joey goes to the Great Litterbox in the Sky.
Sunday: a high- we four women attend a bridal shower for my niece.
Sunday: a low- Hubs had to dig the grave for poor Joey... in frozen ground.
Sunday: a high- we all went out to dinner for Sunshine's b-day.
Sunday: a low- eldest step-daughter had to return to college (with her father's car!).
Sunday: a high- 3 of Sunshine's guy friends came over for ice cream cake (like we needed that after eating at a shower and a Mexican restaurant).
Monday: a low- Sunshine needs an appliance for her TMJ and locked jaw and insurance won't pay a red cent. Drats.
Monday: a high- Sunshine needs new tires on her car, and Hubs realizes that the junk car he bought for parts has 4 new tires that just "happen" to fit her car (God is good!)
And then Tuesday: another high- I got to teach all my beloved kidlets at school that I hadn't seen since Friday. And dang it, I love those kids and I love my job!
Thank you, Lord, for the bumps and trials that make us appreciate the calm and peaceful.

you wear dentures? ha ha. Did you find them?
Actually, I don't wear dentures... yet. But I've had so much dental work that I tell Hubs, "When I die, pull all my teeth. There's a lot of money in them!"
Condolences on the loss of Joey. Was he the cat with the tilted noggin?
You know, after riding on some of those roads in PA, I think those potholes could cause one to need dentures! And spinal surgery, and treatment for a concussion, and post-traumatic stress syndrome... Not to mention a new transmission...
Well said.
