I got up early to run a few errands before work and ended up with a flat tire while I was out. I don't get what the deal is, between Steve and I we've had 3 flat tires in the last 3 weeks.
What's ironic is that I was feeling pretty bummed out this morning and for some ridiculous reason I couldn't help but laugh at my car troubles.
Steve and I talked last night and we're both kind of in a place of wondering what we're doing here. We know that Madison is where were supposed to be and we really like it here, but so many times we just feel kind of useless and can't help but wonder why we're here. I think what's the hardest is that we both just feel kind of lonely. We miss having close friends in our lives that we know love us - the type of friends that we know we could call in the middle of the night if we needed to and they would be there for us. We have made quite a few friends here, but not friends like that. We miss having those kind of friends in our lives.
For some reason it's especially hard for me to know that Steve is feeling the same way that I do. I hate knowing that the person I love the most is feeling kinda lonely and there's nothing I can do about it. I'm so glad that we have each other, but I also know that we both need others in our lives as well. It leaves me feeling kind of helpless and I wish there was something I could do to make this season of life easier on Steve.
In the meantime all I can do is keep my chin up and remind myself of all the blessings in my life. Despite feeling a little bummed I know that I really do have a good life.
This weekend we're off to Minneapolis for yet another wedding. I will be so happy once August 8th comes and we're done with our summer wedding tour!
