    and I'm thankful that there will be more hours of daylight in just over a week!

    I'm thankful that I can be amused by the fact that the squirrels are eating my crocus bulbs. It's STILL spring, you little piggies! And yet more amused that they seem to have a preference for "blue".

    I am ever so thankful that I live in a climate where spring starts in February and goes through May-June. I love it here.

    Thursday grateful---

    --For landing in an assignment where I can laugh again (doesn't laughing make you feel better & have a better attitude?)

    --For a boss and coworkers who make me laugh

    --For a boss and coworkers who don't mind my LOUD trademark laugh and my unique sense of humor

    --For being able to ride outside every morning this work week (in above freezing temps)

    --For my husband, who is going to get me some Mounds & Almond Joy "mini" foil eggs for Easter

    I am thrilled that I was able to do a bicycle fit assessment at work today, and a motorcycle fit assessment, AND scheduled another bike fit assessment for next week.

    I love my job, I love my boss, I love the field I work in.

    A motorcycle fit assessment? Do tell! (but... please make sure that the suspension work is done by a qualified race shop - this stuff is calculus-heavy and not for the shadetree mechanic, there's a lot more to it than bolting in doglegs and dropping the forks in the triple tree - )



    I'm grateful for the fish who gave its life for my dinner tonight.

    I'm grateful for a reasonably safe day for everyone at the racetrack.

    I'm grateful for everyone who spends their time putting on the show.

    Oooh, no, I don't do any wrenching! I look at the muscle recruitment and the posture and skeletal positioning, then say "Hmm, here's what's happening now, here's what would likely happen if your mechanic moved this piece." and then I send the rider to their mechanic with my suggestions.

    I know biomechanics, but not bike mechanisms!
