I suppose it is a tribute to something that we woke up to nasty snow on the deck...a fitting icy morning for the last minute tax return filers (including us). Jim has just now presented me with his stack of papers, seeming quite pleased that we have HOURS to spare on this task - I just can't be real enthusiastic about that. But hopefully it will get out (with lots of our money) before the day is over. *sigh*

On a brighter note, the snow does seem to be melting! Hopefully I will get to some reeds today and maybe even practice (since now we know I am a profitable oboe playing businesswoman).
