I am thankful ... that my mother is moving on, that she got busted out of the hospital today and that my sister was there for her this week to help.
... for all the beautiful trees we saw today.
... for nature's infinite layers of texture, colour and density.Living life like there's no tomorrow.

Thankful that I didn't get hit on the road today by the reckless (and they think drunk) kid who crashed his car just a way down the road.
Thankful to the nice fireman who took pity on me after over an hour of standing there, sweat-drenched and freezing in the cold, darkening afternoon.
The Staters were letting a lot of people walk around, including some locals who lived there, but they wouldn't let me through, even after the ambulances were gone, and after a bunch of people had walked around all over the site.
That fireman said, "Don't look around, just follow me, then disappear." I was freezing cold, and he helped me get on my way, only 20 minutes back to my car. It was the very end of my ride."The best rides are the ones where you bite off much more than you can chew, and live through it." ~ Doug Bradbury

I am thankful that I finally found my driver's licence yesterday while on my way to the DMV to get a new one! It's been missing since last fall....

I am thankful I have a sweetie who understands bike love, and even enables it!
(and doesn't think I'm a nut for spending $XX for a pair of bike shorts, but get hives at the thought of spending anywhere near that for a pair of pants to wear to work)
I'm also thankful for the beautiful quiet ride I had this morning in the soft gray light, and thankful for the bike lanes my neighborhood put on the low-traffic side streets. (encouraging bikes to avoid the high-traffic main streets altogether)Last edited by KnottedYet; 02-24-2008 at 08:01 AM.
