at the advice of someone I respect (not a dwellar) I've been reading 1,000 gifts or something like that; written by a stay at home mom (on a fucking farm, of course) with six damn children and SHE HOME SCHOOL'S THEM and home-makes all their food and has time to write this book on gratitude even though she saw her little sister killed by a semi.


I hate this fucking bitch. Plus, there's a lot more about washing dishes than I expected.

example: today she's grateful for how the sun makes a rainbow on the soap bubble as she's washing dishes.

Yuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

I'd rather have a book that had gratitude like: Today I'm grateful that I escaped from prison and so far, no drop bears. You know. REAL stuff.
