I swapped my old bike in at a local charity /coop. My old one was too large and wasn't getting used because of it. The new one came second hand and fits much better. I've been riding almost every day since and have replaced a decent number of trips I would usually make by car.

My wife rescued an old limanted faux antique table from the curb this summer and we've been having a good time restoring it over the holidays. We've been learning to work with vaneer and how to do patches and the like. It's been a lot of fun.

I'm looking forward to some gardening this spring. I was able to convince my landlord to let us take out a large section of lawn and replace it with a native xeroscaped garden. My wife and I have been working on it for a couple of years now and it's really starting to fill in. My cat seems to appreciate it as well. When we moved in our back yard was basically critter free, now we have tons of birds, squirrels, possums, and the odd skunk.
