Avery spent the night last night.  This morning we had breakfast at my gym.  After breakfast we spent a little bit of time in the meditation tower and then doing laps on the jogging track.  After our usual Friday stops at the gas station/car wash and the Post Office we went out to Gale Woods Farm.  The barns were closed, as it seems they usually are.  We were able to see chickens and sheep in outdoor pens.  I’m not sure which Avery liked best; the mud puddles or the big sink.  While we were there, we picked up our Easter hams and some other meat for the freezer.  We also signed up for Chicken, Beef and Pork shares!  Since Avery loves the farm so much, she won’t mind adding a stop there on Fridays to pick up our meat shares.  We will consume meat that has never ever been more than 20 miles from my house! 

At this point, I’m as ready as I’m going to be for tomorrow night.

TechnoGym Wave:  45 minutes, 9.68 miles, HR=131.  I have been anticipating my 2009 Notice of Valuation from Hennepin County in hopes I would get some tax relief in the year 2010.  Nope.  My home valuation is down a mere .5%. 

Early Mass.  If I accomplish nothing else today, I must gather the documents our Accountant needs to do my taxes.  Thanks to my AeroGarden, I had home grown lettuce on my sandwich this afternoon!

I think iced coffee with a little bit of agave nectar is going to be an acceptable alternative to Diet Coke.  I decided to be a wimp about today’s snow storm and left my office after lunch to work from home in the afternoon.  Someone cashed a forged business check at Walmart.  Wells Fargo’s fraud department caught it because the check number was out of sequence and returned it unpaid to Walmart.  I still have the hassle of closing that account, reordering checks, etc.  This is my first check fraud experience in my 35+ year career!

Hello Lent, good bye Diet Coke

Early Mass.  I just agreed to play the piano for a Mass on March 4.  Me.  My own family hasn’t heard me play the piano.  In an effort toward personal growth, every year I try to do something that scares me.  This is it!
