My daughters best friends father is very sick. He has been in the ER 3 times in 2 weeks. Awful undiagnosed auto-immune disorder that is attacking his liver. Its bad.
6:45am the phone rings, its the kids mother. Dad needs to go to the ER, she is too scared to leave him alone. I pop up, go get the kid. I make my daughter and her friend breakfast, take them to school. Kids dad is admitted at hospital, she is staying with us tonight. Today, god (Buddha, The Force, Allah....pick your power) gave me the opportunity to help. That was the best part of my day.

No one has figured out that the OP is a spambot?

Wife got up to give me a hug, kiss, and tell me she loved me. Good start to the day!

I just woke up from an erotic dream. Was sort of a bummer to find it was just a dream, but also a relief.

My back stopped hurting and I also woke up. Both very good things.

Just got off a 24 hour shift and did not have any patients. Always a good thing.

I did not get chosen for jury duty. Enjoyed the day in downtown Houston. Downside, to pass the time, I played "who would you do" and there was only two borderline winners in the entire 300 person group of potential jurors.

I woke up. In a house. Next to the woman I love. Got to work without getting into an accident or stopped by the highway patrol. I have a job. The checks don't bounce. I have food for lunch.
Spambot or not, I need these reminders. My first thought was "still waiting for that good thing" but I need to see how many good things I have.

The system worked. Cooler heads prevailed and a dangerous obstruction was moved (this is on my morning commute, and this was my pleasant surprise today.)
