The Sweet & the Sour

Have you heard?  My life is insane.

Sweet:  I got to go to Chicago last weekend and see a good friend.

Sour:  I couldn't afford it but did it anyway.

Sweet: I got to spend a full day in front of the tv watching some movies with Kate.

Sour:  I didn't pack as a result of the tv, movie watching day and forgot my taxes, dads birthday gift and medicine in my apartment.

Sweet:  I got to go home for the rest of the week!

Sour:  My grandma and my mom live together..... ha, enough said.

Sweet:  My mom, after she was diagnosed with breast cancer, spoke at an event 5 years ago and a woman who was affiliated with Harvest Food Bank heard her story and felt compelled to give my mom a free pass at any time to the food bank.  This past weekend I told my mom how I was barely affording food at my apartment and she decided to take me to the food bank.  I got so much free food!  I felt so blessed that an opportunity and a resource so awesome was available to me and that it has provided for my mom throughout these years.  We are truly blessed.

Sour:  It was exhausting to be overwhelmed with so much great food (which is really not a bad thing at all...)

Sweet:  David is coming home in one month!!

Sour:  David is coming home in one month.... (ha, it seems so far away)
