Thankful

Today I am extremely grateful for distractions....was distracted by a towel that had fallen off the clothes line so went to hang it back up.  Came inside to hear the toilet making a gurgling noise - (clean) water everywhere - up the walls, all over the floor and toilet!!  The council are flushing the pipes.  Why am I grateful for the towel?!?!  I was heading to the toilet when i spotted it out the window.  If I had of ignored it.....
