Noticing

112 ...
You get up every morning you are given the grace of life.  You thank your God for the potentials of existence.  For fifty-two weeks or more on a given calendar year, you tidy up and make the bed.  You wash soiled sheets and then dress the bed mattress with new ones.  You do the task over and over without complaints just the same as you wash dishes several times in a day or load/unload the dishwasher three to four times a week.  To your chores you add bathroom cleanup and total house upkeep, carpet vacuuming and furniture dusting twice or more a week.  Sometimes, very cold mornings, and half asleep, you take out your little critters so they could regulate themselves outdoors, not indoors.  Then, you feed them not once, but three times.  All these you do day in and day out not knowing whether or not other folks in your household notice. They don't verbally thank you, so are they even aware of your contributions to keeping together a home? What does upkeep of a house monetarily cost?  Tell me again, “For what potentials of the day are you thankful?”
