So, yesterday made me a bit whiny. An exercise in thankfulness may be called for: I am thankful that the reason we were at the ER til midnight wasnt because someone fell in a ditch and got poison ivy all the way up to their armpits, or someone got trapped under a Harley...or a John Deere... I never really got clarification on that one, despite hearing the story 23 times over the course of 3 hours . #NotHypothetical I am thankful that eating jalapeños at midnight only gave me heartburn, and not...something worse than heartburn. I am thankful that the wine was on sale. I am thankful that sweeping up the broken wine bottle shrapnel all over my driveway at 2 am led me to discover the half-dozen roofing nails sitting right behind my tire. Im thankful that the freakishly loud clap of thunder that shot me four feet in the air, made the hairs on my arm stand on end, shook the house, set off the alarm panel, and threw the breaker wasnt actually a direct lightning strike that would have possibly caused my house to burst into flames, necessitating a 2:30am evacuation in the rain. Im thankful that after my heart rate slowed to below 100 BPM, I was able to get 2 hours of sleep instead of no hours of sleep.
