sereneToday was full of things that made my life harder, chief among them expensive and painful dental work. I need to not focus on that, though (and really, I'm in a fairly good mood, even if I do feel ouchy and swollen and worn out), so here's a list of things that made my life easier and better today:
1) Having dental insurance at all, so that my dental work is expensive rather than non-existant. Thank you, TRIO Program! (Also, thanks, TRIO Program, for a job that lets me stay home with no penalty if I have an ouchy face.)
2) The borrowed car, so that when I got too cold/tired/ouchy to deal with yet another bus ride today, I had the car as an option. Thank you,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

3) My mp3 player. Dental work is more pleasant if one can listen to Bløf and Wait Wait while it's happening. Thanks,someotherguy! (And while I'm at it, thanks for the extension cord for my headphones, so I can watch Stardust without bothering the teenager.)
4) Public transit. I didn't have to worry about parking or driving-while-ouchy today. This is a very good thing.
5) Overdraft protection. See "expensive dental work" above.
6) A high pain tolerance. See "painful dental work" above.
