Thankful Thursday

[mdlbear]

Today, and specifically this evening, I am grateful for:

• Batteries. We're having a power outage. Hardly notice. I wonder how long the UPS will keep my CPAP up.
• A backup drive that doesn't require a separate power supply. That may be what killed the last one.
• An electric car with lots of range. (It does significantly better in warm weather.) But what in blazes were we thinking?
• Colleen's scooter -- likewise.
• Electric toothbrushes. Teethbrush? The dental tech said that my teeth were a lot cleaner than last time. I have no idea what I'm doing differently.
• Always having something new to learn.
• My family's health and safety. That's not something we can take for granted anymore. If we ever could.
• Being far enough north that twilight lasts a long time.
