I rode home in freezing rain last night–I'd like to say I'm surprised but I'm not. It's just been that kind of "Spring".

Three reasons to be thankful:

  1. By the world's standards today, a little freezing ain't much in terms of local excitement.
  2. A tailwind in the morning and a tailwind at night, once in a while I do win one.
  3. Things at my day are getting more interesting all the time, and things in my volunteer organization have never been better.

Three good things that happened today:

  1. Canada's new $10 bill won an award.
  2. Our friend from Japan is coming over for dinner.
  3. The Boy got a major school assignment done.

Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you do criticize him, you'll be a mile away and have his shoes.
