November 16 - What I'm Thankful for Today

Well, it isn't maintenance who promised to be here at 1 to show me how to use my new kitchen sink. That's okay. I'll figure it all out. I'm thankful I got to the pool this morning and wasn't rushed to get out of there. I enjoyed more time in the pool and hot tub. I also had a great workout in the fitness center with another personal best on the stationary bike. I'm thankful I remembered to go to Walgreens this morning and get gas on the way home. I had an eighth of a tank left. I'm thankful gas prices are coming down. I'm thankful for therapy this morning. It was a good session. My next is Friday morning. Okay, that's my day. I still have a lot of notifications. However, I need to write. The book won't write itself. I'm also going to take a hot shower to warm up. As for the water situation yesterday? They never came back to turn it on. I figured it out with the valves under the sink. It was tricky because I can't kneel. I used a footstool to get under those sinks and find the valves and turn them on and hope that would turn on the water. I called the emergency maintenance number last night because I didn't have water. It was after that that I figured out everything but the kitchen sink. She called back after I was in bed and told me how to get water with that faucet. She said she would be back today to show me how to use it. She's a no-show. Okay, that's my day. I need to get a couple of thousand words done today. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

Best of luck to you with the book, I am going to enter a fiction contest but have no idea if I can pull off a short story, Can it just be written with no one saying any dialogue? Thankful I am feeling better and now I am working on a list of sites to try for writing jobs so it will keep me occupied,

Thank you. I have a book I wrote many years ago without dialogue. I wrote it diary style. It turned out well. So, yes, you can write a short story without dialogue.

You've been there for a while, has the water not worked since then?

I got it on myself when I realized they just didn't turn the valves on. I thought they needed to turn it on from outside the apartment.

Hoping the maintenance arrived and taught you how to operate the sink. I'm glad if you had gone to pool. I'm thankful for my good health and the foods and the ordeal that was resolved. Amen

@just4him I guess when maintenance isn't up to par, we need to learn new skills!
