Gratitude thread!

My manager offered me a shift this morning which was great. I wasn't going to be working at all otherwise.

Also grateful for my aunt's puppy that I saw briefly today.

I appreciate all the wonderful people who spend time contributing to OpenStreetMap. Especially grateful for those who leave notes with photos that allow more technical users to improve the map. The quality of OSM is at times better than Google Maps which makes me really happy to see.

If anybody wants to help - download StreetComplete. Contributing is so much fun!

Thanks for the iOS link. Wasn't sure what the equivalent version was

I have a promising job interview lined up for Monday.

And I'm grateful for my heating. And warm socks. Chilly this morning.

Renewing my license seems like it may not be as difficult as I'd worried. Will find out tomorrow morning!

They've almost finished rebuying all of my stolen/damaged property. We're down to the 3DS and an old phone (both were out of stock and I need to find elsewhere), as well as a power board, my canvas poster, bike seat, and aroma diffuser which they haven't yet bought. Although there's now a second list of things I've noticed missing since the first list that I'll need to send soon as well.

I have the next two days off work. I just checked the weather forecast and both days are predicted to be sunny 🙂
