2 nights ago I made a genius discovery. Finally, after 2 years of patiently waiting, I found a Jimmy John's less than 45 minutes away from my house. In fact, it is less than 4 minutes away from my place of employment. I went there for lunch today and declared myself as "perfectly content" for the rest of the day. Really, I haven't had a complaint yet. I did make on observation as I was walking out to my car today. I take so many things for granted.
*2 years ago I moved here absolutely thrilled by the mountains. I realized today that it has been weeks since I actually looked at them.
*Central Air and Heat. I will forever be grateful for my water heater. Chile cured me of that. I have to keep reminding myself that the AC is a blessing as I shiver in my 50 degree windowless office.
*My cell phone. I can talk to anyone, anytime I want.(As long as they answer.)
*The plan of salvation. Wow. Life is literally less painful with a knowledge that death is a temporary separation-nothing more.
*I have good friends in half of the fifty states and on a few continents. That gives me make-shift beds on floors in lots of locations in the case that I catch cabin fever.
*Speaking of cabin fever (or not at all), I hear we've had some fabulous weather as of late. I'd like to appreciate it more.
*I can stand up, sit down, walk, run, climb stairs, and sleep on concrete without feeling pain. My body really doesn't hate me.
I am so blessed and now resolve to NOT take it all for granted.
