You know what I'm thankful for?
This may sound odd, but I am thankful for reaching the out of pocket maximum for our health insurance. For two reasons. Not that I like paying medical bills (which we are still doing), but anything is worth it when I look at our little guy who is starting to smile these days. So, reason #1, it reminds me how glad I am to have him - somethings are priceless. And #2, I like getting those EOB's that now read "Patient Responsibility: $00.00" since we've hit the maximum!
Maybe not what you expected to read. Just some thoughts that have gone through my head recently.
And yes, I am also thankful for our Aldi pumpkin, pictured above :)
I need to read up on how to make sure it lasts awhile without going bad.

Yes, reaching the maximum is wonderful.
We would have owed over $40,000 with our second son's extended stay (that's just the insurances part of it- total was close to $100,000!) How in the world would anyone every pay a bill like that off?!? My husband didn't even make that much in a year back then! It would have taken 30 years to pay that back. I too am thankful for max out of pocket.
Reaching your max is a great feeling. My best friend is always thankful to reach her max. She's epileptic and her scripts costs over $400 every month. Reaching her max means she can do more for her family. I, too, am thankful for her because I know what a strain it is on her.
If you do find out how to make the pumpkin last longer, I hope you share.
