Day 51: Silver Linings

Dang it.  I thought about this post all day long yesterday and then forgot to post it!  Oy.

Today I am grateful for things that happen that, despite the negative circumstances surrounding them, are the silver linings to the clouds of the day or of the week!  Let me explain.  Today my husband went to his car to leave for work and I heard him trying to start the car.  It wasn't starting.  It was dead.  Not the best way to start the day BUT there is a silver lining!  The car died in our garage out of the way of anyone!  It didn't die in the middle of rush hour traffic where people would be honking at him and flipping him off (because of course anyone who has broken down in the middle of traffic plans for it to happen then because they like being honked at and flipped off...or not), it didn't die in some out of the way inconvenient place.  It died in our garage.  My friends, that is a silver lining and I am grateful for those.
