I also have AC, a computer, a car with AC and enough to eat. My place has two flights of stairs, and I am grateful that I can get up the stairs. I had hip surgery and was disabled for a while, but now I can take long walks in the forest that is a short drive from where I live. I guess being grateful is the only way to go. What else is there to say? (I did forget something) I got to a meeting this morning, and the sharing was very special.
...And about safe drinking water..about 130 years ago in the Chicago area where I live, there was an awful epidemic that caused hundreds of deaths. Why? The drinking water from the lake was not purified. Sometime after that, they started purifying the water in a safe way. Safe, clean drinking water is one of life's necessities that most of us take totally for granted.
