Grateful

I'm grateful that playtex donated a milk crate full of tampons to our students, even though I had to unbox them 2 at a time out of approximately 600 boxes. The ones Peter bought them are almost gone.

I'm grateful to work with some lovely people who like saying fuck.

I'm grateful for the laugh today when the fire alarm went off unexpectedly at school and the fire department couldn't find us. I kind of wish it had been a real fire because the place would have burned down while they were looking for us. Then maybe they would raze the place and start from scratch. When they finally got there, they determined that it was the sensor in the annex that tripped, which is another old building behind the school which we occasionally use. Then no one could find the key for it! I'm grateful that we had to stand out in the sunshine the whole time this comedy of errors was happening!

I'm grateful for grandsons and granddaughters who all have beautiful hair, beautiful smiles, and bad attitudes! I'm grateful for the kind of parents they all have.

I'm especially grateful today for siblings and all the gifts they have brought into my life for so many years.

I'm truly blessed. Love, elly
