    Dear Allergy Fairies,
    Could you please ignore SadieKate's request to send Ms. Coughy to my area? See, the Tater-cube is nice and quiet now and I would really rather it stay that way!
    Thanks so much,

    Dear New Programable Thermostat,

    Thank you for working (as in turning the AC on!) after I installed you. I was worried because one wire didn't match up, and one slot was left empty, and I didn't know if I had a "heat pump" or not. I do not know what a heat pump is. But all seems to be well, at least until I need the furnace!

    Dear God,

    I had this idea. Wouldn't it be cool if we could move trees around just by pushing them? I could move the huge ones to where they could shade my house better. I could move the really pretty ones in the back 40 closer. I could move them all away when a hurricane came through, instead of sleeping in the part of the house that wouldn't get crushed if one fell. I could fill out the bare sections of fence line, so I wouldn't have to look at the neighbors or the road. Just an idea, please take it into consideration.

    Thanks,

    Nanci

    Dear weather gods,
    Here is your weather schedule for the week beginning Monday, June 12th:

    Monday June 12 - you may choose to rain this day. Rain yourself dry.
    Tuesday June 13- if you're still feeling a little soggy, go ahead. Rain. Surely you'll be fully wrung out by midnight.
    Wednesday June 14- Sunny. And Hot. Like +25 (celsius)
    Thursday - June 15 Sunny. And hot. Like +25 (celsius)
    Friday June 16- Sunny. And hot. Like +25 (celsius)
    Saturday June 17- preferably overcast, maybe some sun. Not a chance of rain. Even a cold front would be acceptable. Please don't go any hotter than 25 (celsius). Or cooler than 5 celsius. Oh, and if you could keep the mosquitos and wind at bay, that'd be greatly appreciated too.
    Sunday - I don't care what you do because I and 799 other riders will be done our race. You can even snow if you feel you need to let off some steam.

    Yours in racing the ride of my life,

    Rider 596.

    Dear Nanci,

    What I had in mind when I placed the trees where they are is that you put the *house* where the huge ones are so they can shade you better. And you could put the *house* 40' closer to the pretty ones in the back.

    Sorry about the hurricanes. Could you prune the big branches? Don't prune the fig though oops.

    Or how about this: for all that you do for my animals, I'll just try to keep the branches off you when you sleep

    Feel free to fill out the bare sections of fence line though. I don't like to look at your neighbors or the road either.

    Thanks,

    Dear "Everything Happens For a Reason",

    Last week was truly awful and this week is feeling just as difficult. I understand that time and patience reveals all, but I would really appreciate things getting better soon, especially if I don't get to know the reason just yet. Thank you.

    Dear legs,

    I'm sorry that I told lungs to get over themselves because I was going to work out whether they liked it or not,but please go easy on me.

    Dear ex co-worker,

    Well, I guess you got your way anyway by quiting so that you could have Saturday off, but I to have a life. By the way, you can not get through life without having any stress, so suck it up!

    Dear Mr. technology guy on the phone,

    Please stop bragging about your accomplishments and talk to me about what we're supposed to be talking about - developing technology. Please pardon the noise - even though it sounds like I'm whapping the phone on the desk, it's construction outside. Yeah yeah... construction.

    Sincerely,
    A person in need of riding a longggggg ride today to relieve stress.

    dear beloved husband

    thank you for supporting me in all the ways that you do.
    Thanks for buying me the great b67 saddle and installing it
    onto our tandem even though the rest of the bike club continues to make snide comments about it being too springy and large.
    Thanks for bidding on a bike on ebay for me because i liked it.
    Thanks for axing YOUR bike ride thursday night (all right, there was a deluge but who's checking) and occupying your entire evening working on the new Veloce bike so that I could ride it.
    Thanks for accompanying me to the school playground (where there were an unusual number of cars and kids playing basketball) so i could get used to
    the new bike on a relatively flat surface with lots of room for turning around.
    Thanks for being patient when it appeared that i'd forgotten everything i used to know about bicycling including shifting and braking.

    Thanks for being patient while I complained about the b17 seat you lovingly installed on my new bike.

    Thanks for being there when in my despair, it looked like i didn't like my new bike at all..

    Thanks for not totally losing it when i went and bought yet another saddle ( a b67, the only kind that seems to work for me) for a bike that we're not even sure i can ride.

    You are an incredibly cool husband and I promise I will never trade you in or make another comment about the 30 + bike Jerseys that you own.
    Thanks again.
    mimi

    Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
