i'm thankful i'm able to take a sick day when i don't feel well, as i did yesterday. i'm thankful that i still don't feel great, but i feel better than i did yesterday, and that resting helped some.
i'm thankful for the bitter taste of the xanax as it dissolved under my tongue and for mango sorbet eaten out of the pint while lying in bed.
i'm thankful that a connecting road near our house, which has been closed for months while they rebuilt a bridge, is open again, and cars flow through freely in both direction.
