It was cold today, but clear, and the sun was incredibly brilliant! We still have some snow, and the sunlight on the snow made my eyes water. We have a few more days of light snow coming this way, but nothing like what the eastern U.S. has been getting. I love the sunlight in the morning when it makes my quilt studio glow, but afternoon sunlight is starting to talk to me of SPRING!!! Have you noticed our days are longer?
I went to exercise this morning. We did our warm-up and about 25 minutes of cardio, and then we were introduced to a guest teacher. Regina is going to start a class next week on “Zoomba.” She took us through three simple, warm-up style pieces. The footwork is very similar to what we do in my present class, with a bit more dancing involved. I have a bad knee, so I’m not thrilled by steps that require very quick shifts of weight, but I was able to substitute simpler steps and keep up the pace. I don’t think I will be signing up for Zoomba, but I enjoyed the chance to sample it.
Okay, tomorrow the Christmas tree comes down. I heard on the news yesterday that the town in which I live requires that your Christmas decorations be down, or you will be fined!! What right do they have to legislate how I decorate my house??? I hope that my evergreen wreath with the red bow in the entryway near my front door is allowable, or I’ll be writing about the fine next week! Actually, I’m going to go check out the law, so that I know how it reads! lol
Taxes are almost ready to go to the CPA (She’ll FAINT!!!) Usually I get them to her by April 1st. I’ll have to drop them off on Monday, just for the fun of it. New insurance is just about ready to be locked in. You can see the top of my desk. Amazing, isn’t it??
Have a great weekend!
Arrrgh!!!
It's just my state of mind!
Gotta keep the accountant on her toes by being ready early every once in a while!
Glad you’r getting the sun and little snow – WS wants to hog it all for New England so he can sled longer (then of course, he wants it all to go away at once, without flooding, and turn 70 degrees so he can go right to riding the bike).
Apparently your politicians don’t have more important things to do–like ours. We have a homeowner on the southside who the city has utterly harrased. They should be ashamed of themselves. Whatever happened to our freedom?
Bogie, WS has pretty high expectations! Doesn’t winter hang around until July in New Hampshire? Bike season must be very short!
Frankie, our politicians need to be thinking about how to lower taxes AND provide more services instead of frittering their time away legislating how we do or don’t decorate our homes. People really have the wrong idea about what government should be. Can you imagine what would have happened if Dad had called the cops every time the horses across the street broke out and crossed our lawn to get to the compost pile?? Whatever happened to the era when we spoke to our neighbors and resolved issues like adults?
