Day sixty-seven.

This morning all of our water made its way downstairs to the bathroom floor. A problem with the pipes, maybe. I wanted to complain and grumble to myself while using the shop-vac to soak up my shower water. But I quickly realized that I'm fortunate to have such a problem.

Later on my car battery died while at the public library. So, I walked to class through a light mix of snow & rain. I wanted to complain some more. Somehow I made it to my class only a little late.

My parents came later in the evening to revive my car. It started on its own! strangely enough. Can cars do that?

Today was a wacky day, but I learned some things--aside from remembering to turn my headlights off after parking. Maybe my few unfortunate events were God's way of reminding me to give thanks in all circumstances, as Paul said one time.

I'm especially thankful for

-not being on crutches

-clean water

-a car

-my parents willingness to help me out

-my dad's positive attitude when it comes to fixing our plumbing

-and many other things.
