Today I am thankful for the very honest boy in my period 5 class that realized during the test on genetics that I had accidentally copied the answer key with the test. Duh....Everybody had the answers!
Thanks P for bringing it to my attention...
We got a good laugh out of it
I'm glad I kept the dog who I originally said was "not the dog for me". She looks so cute in her little Woolrich coat she makes me smile.
And for her buddy Gingervitis :)
Today I am grateful for my best friend back east, who is funny, wise, cares a lot about others, and is a grown-up.
I am grateful that my physiotherapist said I should work through the problem so I don't have to stop running again!!!!
Today I am thankful ---
--That I could get a ride in -- outside -- on dry pavement before the winter weather sets in and means I'll be Spinerval Queen for awhile;
--Decently warm feet & hands during said ride;
--Another day off;
--A trio of SLEEPING Golden Retrievers (when puppy [the Holy Terror] wakes up and is ready to rock, look out---stitches? what stitches in me sweet belly? mama, me want to play and wrestle Maeve & Maud, me not want to be calm!)
Last night I wanted hot chocolate, which keeps me awake all night, and turns me into my evile doppleganger. I'm glad I discovered hot milk with sugar and vanilla is really good, without the side effects of chocolate!
I'm so happy today because my mom came and stayed with us last night and will stay over again tonight!! She was so relaxed and happy, we had some wine and had a nice talk, she said she loved being with us. I love my mom!
I'm thankful today for the pain in my knees, which is my reminder that I have been working hard helping my son get his house ready to sell, which means I have raised someone so responsible so young that he has a house to sell in the first place.
I'm thankful for my bike, which I will go pedal around the block a few times before the rain comes, to help my knees feel better.
I'm thankful for the sunshine streaming in my window, because I know it's not going to last.

Thursday, I am grateful for---
Our year-round sun room, where I work out with Coach Troy. Warm & dry when it's nasty outside;
My fluffy Patagonia fleece cardigan, which I'm wearing to work today. Its good vibes will hopefully serve as a "anti-Strega shield" during the big meeting I have scheduled today. May it allow me to deflect all of La Strega's backstabbing, nasty ways and prevail over her machinations;
Only six more days, counting today, in this assignment from hell. The light at the end of this tunnel is getting brighter
Yesterday's, really:
I'm grateful for Thai food, and for being able to watch the moon come out of the eclipse.
I'm grateful for the bike racks on our busses, and that so far the weather looks good for multimodal commuting today.
I'm so thankful for a warm home to shelter us from the bitter cold.
I'm thankful for the support and encouragement of the TE'ers.
I'm thankful for my health and that I can enjoy the simple pleasures of life.
I am thankful for Peanut starting rehab and starting to become her old self again.
I am thankful for things freezing over last night so the commute to work was easy because I know the way home is going to be sloppy and wet. I'm also thankful for studded tires.
I am thankful for my boyfriend helping me through some hard times.
I am grateful that my Surly and I managed our first multi-modal commute of 2008. And she didn't fall out of the bus's bike rack!
And I'm also VERY grateful that the evening bus driver managed to avoid t-boning the truck who ran the red light in front of us... cuz my bike would've been splattered!
I liked that the driver joked about my bike and the truck over the PA, and that the other bus riders laughed. (and that I had enough composure to joke back... despite my pounding heart and dry mouth and sweaty palms!)
I am infinitely grateful that my mother seems to be getting better and that today she had enough confidence to go to the mall and do a little shopping with my sister. Thank you universe.:D
