Thankful Thursday

[jenk]

Relatively painless blood draw in advance of annual physical. It was a fasting  draw, but I have discovered it's easier to get up without an immediate need for caffeine and food if you're not sleep deprived in general.  (WHO KNEW???) 

Fun with Woobles. I've got a cactus smiling at me from across the room.

Plants that keep surprising me. Two volunteer rosebushes, mint seeds sprouting ages after I gave up and replanted with other seeds....

Vanessa the plug-in hybrid. The vast majority of my trips are within electric range, we have a charger at home, so unless we do a road trip we don't need to bother with gas. (I realized today I don't remember which side has the opening for the gas tank. I do know where the electric charging port is.) 

Finding a "Get Out The Vote" job I can do. In my case it's postcards reminding people to vote. I was sent nice postcards with reminder to vote on Nov 5, some tested-out messages, and addresses. I'm providing stamps and labor (addressing and writing a "Thank you for being a voter!" message).  I went through https://turnoutpac.org/postcards/ but there are others.

Tillamook medium cheddar

Glad I got a few extra ebooks from the library during the DNC

Nice to see your pixels! I love Tillamook medium cheddar, it's a basic in my fridge. For luxury purposes I also like their extra sharp white cheddar. Thanks for sending postcards!

Thanks! I also like their garlic white cheddar and black pepper cheddar, but they're not always available up here. :)
