Didn't get a chance to ride yesterday - my dad came early in the morning and brought me new (to me) furniture (actually, it's my parents' furniture from when the first got married 36 years ago... still in beautiful condition and I love it!). So I figure for Saturday, my workout was hauling those huge heavy dressers and all the empty boxes for moving up the steep hill from the road to my house.

This morning I got out early before the wind sped up to 30mph again. Went on my ~16 mile route and loved every minute of this beautiful day. It was already in the 80s at 8 a.m. so it was quite warm, but overall an incredibly satisfying ride. The hills that use to kill me and make me think I was going to have a stroke going up them are easy for me now and I love love love the feeling of being so strong! All the wind we've had this spring may be annoying, but it sure has made me stronger. I'm on call today so the rest of the day will be spent in luxurious relaxation doing laundry and preparing food for the rest of the week in anticipation of being called in to place a pacemaker or pull worms from a doggy's heart.

I hope everyone enjoys their Easter and they have as beautiful a day as we are having (heat and wind and all)!!
