Thankful Thursday

[mdlbear]

Today I am not feeling particularly grateful, given what's going on in my former homeland. But I'll try. Today I am grateful for...

• Having gotten out of the US in time.
• Having enough drugs to continue treating my cancer for another five months or so even if I can't manage to connect with an oncologist before then. NO thanks for the twistiness of the Dutch health care system.
• Having opened enough boxes to have finally found most of the things I've been worried about. Most of the recording gear was in a large box labeled "AV" -- we just had to unpack enough other boxes to uncover it.
• The stepdown transformer I got for N's fancy sewing machine, which wants 110V with a polarized plug. NO thanks to idiot manufacturers that don't internationalize their products.

Ha! That's a great saying. (Why didn't my Markdown work?)

I wish I'd had Grady and Practical Engineering to watch when I was a kid.
