I am grateful that:
1195. I have not have a major reason to see the doctor for the last five and a half months.
1196. That I have had a Health Savings Account to float me between insurances.
1197. That I can still utilize my glasses.
1198. Finding out that the contacts on hold at the optometrist were already paid in full.
1199. Having affordable health insurance (this isn't Obamacare, so that isn't a bridge I wanted to cross).
1200. How this has made me acutely aware of the need of health insurance.
My parents' washer broke this week. They just go a new one today that sings when it is done. High efficiency, high fluent. As weird as it sounds, I am grateful that this all happened. I have more than enough clothes to go a week and a half without washing them (1201), it causes me to avoid thinking about what I just wore (1202--this apparently seems to be a thing I forget frequently nowadays. I probably would wear the same clothes everyday if it wasn't for the hamper), and this gave me time to focus on things other than laundry (1203). The last one may sound funny, until you realize that I seriously don't have a great capability of balancing several things at once and enjoyed not having to put laundry on the list of things I should be doing right this second. I am also very happy that my parent's washer and dryer lasted as long as it did (1204), they had their old ones taken away for $10, they got their new ones on sale (1205), and that they had the means to replace them quickly (1206). My dad was able to have a job that was flexible enough to let him off in the middle of the day (1207), and they hooked up the new equipment for practically nothing (1208). I am grateful that we no longer have to use a washboard for our clothes (1209) and for high efficiency units (1210).
I am grateful for snow crystals (1211) and a slow recovery (1212). Again, I think that my injury has been well timed in needing balance in my life with other sports (1213). I am forced to swim and do yoga and stretch lots, which has been a good way to make me feel a little less scattered (1214).
While sometimes things seem so bad, there is a silver lining to it all.
