    I'm grateful for my friend D (calling her my boss just seems weird), who stocks the freezer with Annie's frozen entrees so I don't have to carry my lunch when I commute. She also washes the clothes I leave there. She makes it much easier for me to ride.

    I am BOYOBOY! thankful that our local ballet company has a jazzy new ball of fire for a director, and that we got to go see the Director's Choice performance last night. Thank you!! For livening up the dance scene and bringing exciting new works to the company. Yeeha. Good stuff.

    I'm grateful for Wahine. Because of her amazing virtual PT abilities (and some of my determination) I astounded my friend when she saw me today.

    I am thankful for a beautiful spring day with the sun shining and a few amazing flakes of snow in the air and the daffodils and tulips bringing cheering shades of yellow and pink to my garden....even though I have this stupid report to write.

    I'm grateful I haven't snapped at the woman who is obsesessed with me. From her behaviour it appears she has a crush on me, but she expresses it in very negative ways.

    I'm grateful I can remember what it was like to be living in denial of my orientation, and can scrape up some pity for her and her actions. (but lawrd, it's tough to stay calm)

    I'm grateful to the car drivers who didn't flatten me when I had a little tip-over today in a very bad spot. And I'm grateful that neither self nor bike got more than scuffed.

    I'm grateful for the pierogis I made yesterday, but boy, I feel tired today. There are carbs, and there are CARBS, and they're definitely the latter type.

    I'm glad Oakleaf wasn't smushed by that car.

    I'm so grateful that our beloved 15+ year-old German Shorthaired Pointer is enjoying another springtime and walked over a mile with DH today. It's exactly 8 months since we brought her home from doggie ICU and surgery for a malignant insulinoma, and we almost lost her then. Although we recognize that she's on borrowed time, today was a very good day.

    I'm grateful for new found strength on hills. Not sure if it's from winter riding (which I hope) or that massive cassette I put on in the fall . Either way, yay!
