AIBU to ask about your life *today*?

I always hear how the 'future', the here and now, is so bad. I think it's pretty amazing, and practicing gratitude is really helping me appreciate that. (The leaves have started to fall so maybe I'm feeling a bit soppy!)

What is the number one thing in your life, that if your great-grandparents were alive today to see, their jaw would drop?

For me I'm thinking about housework just because I'm quickly sorting that right now, but I suppose I mean in any area.

My great granny's jaw would drop at my steam cleaner... they had an outside loo for all their life, so the idea that the loo is not only inside, but some crazy machine could blast steam and clean it to sparkle in 90 seconds would no doubt blow her mind!

My great pops jaw would drop that I run a business, and that my husband and I run the house and parent as a very joint affair.

I'd love to hear what you are grateful for or are amazed by in your life today!

I thought of some more....
The choice of food in the shops, the amount of clothes we have, also the amount of toys, they seem to breed overnight in my household!
Women allowed to vote and open a bank account, one of my older ex colleages told me she had to have her husband's permisionShock
