I am grateful

After moving to Chicago my luck turned upside down. I fell while running and broke my arm, then I lost my job due to the broken arm, then I was billed a heinous amount by the hospital I went to because I wasn't at an "in network" hospital, and then to top that off my car was stolen while I was on vacation in Madison, WI (pictures of our vacation below). However, for every low, there's a high. Which I would definitely say that is accurate, because after I told my parents about my stolen car they felt so bad that they went out and bought me another one the very next day! Talk about truly amazing parents! Later that day, I also called the hospital and it turns out they dropped all charges, so I don't have to pay for the over priced medical bill! Yayay!!! 

Even though I had all this bad luck things definitely could have been worse. So I made a list of all the things I am grateful for...

1. My family and their generosity

2. My boyfriend and him helping me through this tough time

3. My kitten, enough said ;) 

4. My new car


Hopefully my luck will only go up from here!

Here are some pictures from our time in Madison
