Um, okay, I didn’t really realize how expensive skiing is… I had wanted to do a lesson rather than just trying to stay upright while careening down a mountain, and it was certainly more than I was willing to spend this past winter (what with having just bought a house and all…)
Maybe next year it will be more of a consideration.

Well, a long time has passed since my last entry on this and I guess a few things have certainly changed… I now have a house with a little yard, and have done a whole lot of prep work this year to add more soil (organic no less), and some fertilizer (all natural mushroom manure), and have planted a few things – just a couple of hostas which are doing well, and some lily of the valley which is not doing well at all.
I also put a few perennials in the side flower bed – daffs and crocuses and a few other spring things (will need to add some later bloomers as well or it will be a very seasonal flowerbed that’s for sure).
Then, dare I dream… cherry tomatoes?

Over the summer Daniel and I both got new bikes. We didn’t have a lot of time to enjoy them, as a rainy winter has been less than inspiring, but since spring is upon us we’ve already gone on a few rides so far this season.
While my office is being renovated, I’ll be working from a different building and my hope is that I’ll be able to ride to and from work. I’ve done one trial run and it was taking a lot out of me, but I’ll try it a few more times so that hopefully by the time we’ve moved locations I’ll have the stamina to do it without a problem. I’m looking forward to it!
