My Top Ten List of Things I Have Recently Taken For Granted
10. A nice, long fall
9. Someone to "car pool" kids to school with
8. A good metabolism
7. A really good elementary school with a really good special ed program
6. Not having to pay rent
5. Sleep
4. Living near family and friends and having plenty of babysitters
3. Having a grocery store in town
2. My mom
1. Clean, clear city water
Lesson learned: Be grateful for what you have...things can always get worse!
This move is going to be hard on me. I am losing a lot of helpers, I'm not sure how Matty's education will be affected, I am going to have to think ahead and plan meals and be careful not to forget anything at the grocery store (since the nearest one is 30 miles away). I am going to have to deal with a lot of snow and mud...and worst of all, well water. In. My. Home. Well water that has been sitting in the tank and pipes for years. Brown, stinky well water.
But...it can always be worse. I know someone who will have to move to China soon. China is worse than Meeteetse...right??
P.S. I will be making a list of positive things about my move just as soon as I get settled. And as soon as I think of some. :)
