Gratitude Day 3

Today I am sick.

Still battling the flu's leftover fever, sore throat, sinus congestion, and ear infection.  Praying it doesn't turn into my regular November pneumonia.

You'd think that today I would be grateful for modern medicine, but I'm a mom, so I'm grateful for something much more practical.


PBSKids, how I love thee.

I don't feel too guilty gluing Kembry to the t.v. for 6 or so hours if I know it's educational cartoons.  

I'm grateful for the publicly funded station, and plan on donating every cent that's fallen between the couches, since it's the only money not already designated for my shock therapy treatments.

I'm grateful that someone somewhere is keeping this station running.  Grateful for the writers of such clever shows as Word World and Super Why and Sid the Science Kid.  Not so grateful for the songs that get stuck in my head however...

Speaking of Sid the Science Kid, I learned about inertia yesterday.  This old dog can learn new tricks.

Thank you PBS for giving me a much needed time to rest.  And thank you Duct Tape for providing me with ample restraining abilities to keep Kembry in her chair.  Kidding, kidding!

I'm grateful for PBS as well. We currently don't have TV, but I know well enough that often I HATE other cartoon shows and can trust PBS to have something worthwhile and educational on.
