A Sign of the Times

Last night, as I filled up the tank on my way to choir practice I glanced over at a huge sign over Exxon saying "Buy Milk here for $2.99 a gallon!" The price of the cheapest gas, (at our area's cheapest gas station) was $3.54 a gallon. That whole moment felt all wrong to me, but I'm sure I'll be living through many more of them as a mother of a "large" family during these crazy economic times.
