Sitting here in my house, in my chair, at my computer, listening my stereo – which just happens to be blaring out Cindi Lauper’s Girl’s Just Wanna Have Fun. I posted my Thankful post on Facebook:

November FB challenge….post something every day this month that you are thankful for……Today I am thankful for my house, even if it needs work. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1326187/Las-Vegas-tunnel-people-How-1-000-people-live-shimmering-strip.html

I saw that article on FB yesterday and I knew that I wanted to post it today. The story is like out of a movie. People living underground, people who lost everything due to one reason or another. People who flocked to the shimmering city because they thought they would have a better life. And yes, some due to drugs. They live on our off casts. And I wonder if there are others like this in other cities or even in my own. I just can’t imagine how one could stay sane. And I am so so thankful that I still have my house, no matter how hard it is to keep it.
