A Little Bounce

I was feeling a little bit down, because we'd invited a bunch of people for shabbos dinner, having forgotten that there was a shul dinner this week, and no one could make it, because of the aforementioned. (We haven't gone to one yet, because it's $20 a person, and it feels wasteful- I could make dinner for 6 on the money it would take for us both to go. Maybe we should try it? I don't know.) We were going to then try inviting folks for lunch, but we were busy, forgot to send the emails, and then it was already bedtime on Wednesday.

H called home briefly- one of our guests from last week (the nicest of the bunch, whom we'd actually invited, versus the people we said "ok" to when they asked because they needed a meal) has just invited us for dinner. It's amazing how a little thing like that provides a little bounce to one's morning.
