Today’s Gratitude Item: Finding $10.90 on my walk today. This is a new record (and a surreal experience). The 90c was found on the way down to the ferry – someone had dropped two 20c coins and a 50c coin. I spotted the $10.00 note literally blowing in the wind on my way back home. This qualifies as a strange end to an otherwise ordinary day.
