January kind of flew by! And now it’s on to February and supposedly another 6 weeks of winter (Thanks to good old Phil-not!).

I’m already dreaming of warmer weather and longer days, although it hasn’t been too cold, I’m pretty much over the whole getting dark right when I get home kind of thing. I want it to stay light outside for longer and I’m ready to not have the air hurt my face when I walk out the damn door every morning.

But enough about the weather.

January was pretty low-key, actually. I didn’t do much exciting for the majority of the month. No races, running, yoga, or much of anything took place. I started doing taxes again. And I’m already waiting for tax season to be over! Not too bad this year, but with the new healthcare stuff that we have to go through with people, it can make even what should be the simplest return easily a nightmare of rejects and mad clients. But I will struggle through I suppose.

At the end of the month, I did make an exciting new purchase-a bow! Not the hair kind but the kind you shoot and use for hunting. So I’ve been practicing with that, and am loving it so far! I can’t wait for hunting season to roll around :).

I also tried out several new recipes last month and almost all of them were hits. There were one or two that could use a little tweaking, but I’m looking forward to trying some of the again. I will definitely have to share here on the blog when I get a chance to make them again.
