I have a lot to be thankful for. It's easy to forget

When we have been invited to a banquet, we take what is set before us: but if a guest should ask the host to set before him fish or sweet cakes, he would be considered to be an unreasonable fellow. But in the world we ask the Gods for what they do not give; and we do this though the things are many which they have given.
-Epictetus

My New Chair

After a little over 20 years with the same office chair, I finally bought a brand new GT Racing gaming chair. No, I'm not a gamer, but I looked around, priced all kinds of chairs and watched review videos. I couldn't get over the fact that these gaming chairs look so cool as opposed to the mundane looking regular office chairs. So, I made my choice and here it is. YES!

I'm very exited and so far I'm enjoying my new chair. However, it remains in the test phase. Time will tell if this chair is going to survive the test of time. 

My last chair was a great work horse. The only thing that was "wrong" with it was that the back started to bend back and the cushions on the seat were almost gone. I got through that by sitting on a throw pillow. I'm keeping my old chair around for guests and because I hate throwing away a (still) perfectly good  chair - and because I'm emotionally attached to it. I know, I'm weird. You're right.
