I don't know why I plan any meals during airshow week. We always end up with leftovers from volunteer meals or events in the evening or other things like that and don't really eat at home. I shouldn't even buy groceries for that week. Even this week is laden with leftovers from last week that can either last in our fridge or are in our freezer for later this week.

Aside from the exhaustion and busy-ness of airshow this week, we also had some other important events. Unfortunately, they didn't go as we would have wished, and so that was disappointing and exhausting in its own right. Rich's birthday is this week, and we were hoping for good news for his birthday. Please keep praying for our family.

Our parish family has been coming through for us in amazing ways. Tonight's dinner is provided by them, we are only bringing some melons I picked up on my unnecessary grocery trip last week.
