a second list.

Items I use every day, but don't really think about or appreciate.

1. Toilet: better than digging a hole.

2. Cups: better than using my hands.

3. Mirror.

4. Pillows and Blankets: I'd be stiff and cold every morning if I didn't have them.

5. Chairs: I love sitting on the floor, but sometimes the floor is too gross for even me.

6. Shoes: have you seen the TOMS videos about foot infections? I get that we have more accessible soap and water in this country, but I care about my foot health. Also, I really like shoes.

7. Trash cans: a great alternative to piles of garbage.

8. Bags, all kinds (purses, grocery bags, back packs, etc.) A person can only carry so much in her hands.

9. Pony tail holders: what else would I use to control my mane? Ribbons don't work well enough, rubber bands only rip my hair out.

10. Glasses/Contact Lenses: I really enjoy being able to see.

I will certainly second #1. Better than digging a hole. Also, better than using a hole that someone has dug for you, and surrounded with corrugated tin and sticks for your privacy and comfort.

A whole lot better.
