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?<br \/>\nI 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 &#8220;Zoomba.&#8221;  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&#8217;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&#8217;t think I will be signing up for Zoomba, but I enjoyed the chance to sample it.<br \/>\nOkay, 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&#8217;ll be writing about the fine next week!  Actually, I&#8217;m going to go check out the law, so that I know how it reads! lol<br \/>\nTaxes are almost ready to go to the CPA (She&#8217;ll FAINT!!!) Usually I get them to her by April 1st.  I&#8217;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&#8217;t it??<br \/>\nHave a great weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was cold today, but clear, and the sun was incredibly brilliant!
