Thankful Thursday

[mdlbear]

Today I am grateful for...

• All of the human members of the Schildhaven household are HOME! G and m landed yesterday morning and were here before noon.
• The household felines are on the continent -- they landed in Frankfurt this morning, and will be here tomorrow. My stress level has been a lot lower since they and their paperwork got checked in yesterday.
• Phones with local numbers and unlimited internet, because the house line doesn't get switched on until the Fifth of November.
• Closely related, my old phone being able to stay connected in airplane mode with WiFi. NO thanks for the fact that SMS cannot be delivered over WiFi. It's quieter, but every once in a while I need to turn it on for a verification text. Blarg.
• Finally getting the utilities signed up for, which involved a phone call because the website was weirdly broken for me.
