9/20/13 Gratitude Journal

I am grateful that it just seemed like a lot of blood and that a crack on the scalp can be glued together without the need for stitches or staples.  (I am grateful I was just a little shook up.)  I am grateful for Desiree who took me to Sharp Grossmont and for Melody who got me back to my car.  I am grateful for the speedy efficient team that got me in and out of ER quickly.  I am grateful for the opportunity to sit back at home and watch the Wavy Gravy documentary, Saint Misbehaving. I am grateful for the leftovers in the fridge and for email, facebook, and Modpo (Coursera poetry class)  time to express my indignation at all those who would cut food stamps for the poor while they eat their $200 dinners and at those who would shut down our government to deprive people of their right to health.  Ok–Bumps on heads can make me even more of a curmudgeon.   I am grateful for understanding readers.
