Tuesday, February 1, 2011 - Bookkeeping Day

Had a good night's sleep after taking some ibuprofen before going to bed (Hubby took Tylenol). Spent the day working on my bookkeeping, finishing off last year's books and moving everything to a new bookkeeping program, and preparing to do the taxes. I'm waiting for a few more weeks before having mail forwarded, to make sure we have all the tax info. I suspect that some will be late because of the tardiness of the extension of the Bush tax rates in December. I trust they won't mind if I send in my taxes late, too (yeah, right!). It was warm, and rained most of the day, so it was the perfect day for office work. Hubby watched the news most of the day (the Egyptian uprising), then took a nap in the afternoon. On the ride yesterday, a branch swung and hit him in the face, and making a small cut on his eye, which is small but painful, so I bandaged up his eye to keep him from rubbing it and making it worse. Although we had originally planned to leave tomorrow, there's a cold front coming our way (one of the worst storm's of the century, according to most news reports), so there's only a few degrees difference between where we are and where we're going. Since here we are paying zero to camp, and will have to pay $20/night at the next place, we'd rather not do that when the weather is cold and rainy and we won't be able to ride anyway. The added incentive of Hubby suffering, and possibly not even able to drive if his eye doesn't get well enough, we've decided to stay here, even though it's going to be getting really cold in the next few days. We can always throw the horses into the trailer if it gets too cold. With that decided, we went to bed snuggling, using body heat to fend off the cold (whoo-hoo!).
