Day 268: swabs

Hello again,
Today I am thankful for swabs. While I try to write about meaningful blessings, every so often I am just thankful for something like swabs or food so I post it. Swabs are commonly used to clean ears whether it is a safe practice or not but they are very useful for other jobs as well. I find them very multi purpose so I am quite thankful for them. The most obvious uses are for cleaning the outside of my ears (not the inside-don't worry) and cleaning cuts. But here are some other uses which may not be so common that I use swabs for. I use swabs for pollunating flowers by hand. I sometimes have to do this myself if the plant is inside or in the greenhouse away from bees. Swabs work wonderful to collect some of the pollen and add to another flower to cross pollunate them. I also use swabs to clean my computer keyboard sometimes if there is something spilled in a hard to reach spot. Yes sometimes I spill stuff on my keyboard-I am not perfect. I have read that they also work great for craft projects and make up removal and to apply it as well. I have used them to apply glue on occasion which works quite nicely. There are many uses for swabs which are useful to me because it makes my life easier which is why I am thankful for them!
