Car Troubles and Thankfulness

I noticed the other day that my other friends have done a much better job of posting lately. I resolved to no longer be a slacker. Fortunately I have some calamities to share. 

So, my car broke down last week. There was smoke everywhere. Plus, I don't have a cell phone (because I want to stick it to the man), so getting home took forever. A few days later, I got into a fender bender that was my fault. Then I found out that my car was dead. Then I had to buy a new one. Then I didn't remember about car insurance, and it cleaned out my bank account. Then I was overdrawn. Then yesterday, I found out that the fender bender was going to be way more than I was hoping.

It has been pretty stressful. It has been pretty sucky.
I can't say that I haven't been upset and stressed.

But I've been hanging out with people who have less.

But I'm thankful that I had money for a new car.

I'm thankful that I found one so quickly.

I'm thankful that I have a job.

I'm thankful that I could borrow money from my family.

I'm thankful that I am going to get out of debt.

I'm thankful that I have car insurance.

I'm thankful that I have enough to give away.

I'm thankful that I don't have to apply for jobs right now.

I'm thankful that I have hope.
