Todays Challenge:
Write about something you feel grateful for in your life today.
It appears as if the people putting this calendar together got a bit bored today – isn’t this what I have been doing the last 17 days!!!!
So what happened that I am grateful for today? As I have been concentrating on this the last couple of days, like 17, it is becoming a bit more obvious to me that there are a fair few things to be grateful for each day – the number one, everyday, is that I am still here – lots aren’t!
I think today the thing that I am most grateful for is that I had to pick up too pieces of furniture and at both warehouses they ‘warehouse guy’ was pleasant, efficient and actually appeared to know what they were doing – and most of all acted like serving me was their job as opposed to an inconvenience. There was this little bonus in that I was worried that both pieces of furniture were too wide for the trailer which would have presented an interesting packing and tie down problem…. but,then slid on with a cigarette paper width to spare… tying them on was a formality as they were packed in perfect and permanent.
I then drove home and unpacked equally as perfectly without damaging anything or dropping anything on myself….
Being grateful during a pretty normal day is hard!!!!
We are trailed by the Merchants of Misery (the Media) to be pissed off or scared about just about everything. We are supposed to mainly be pissed of about the fact that we don’t have whatever it is that they are selling… and scared because that makes us watch more so we can be scared more… bearing in mid that a video I shared the other day actually used facts (something the Merchants of Misery don’t appear to give a shit about…) which indicated that we are living in the SAFEST time in human history!
But, thinking about my day, notwithstanding that I had a pretty good morning, I did get to work in my shed most of the afternoon just doing shit…. I think this is the thing that I am most grateful for, because tomorrow I am going back into the shed to do more shit, and I love doing shit in my shed.
