We hope everyone had a good holiday season. We had a simple and relaxing one staying in, eating our favorite foods (as we had only finished our Thanksgiving turkey a few days before Christmas, we decided to have fish and chips for Christmas), watching our favorite movies (Holiday themed movies on Christmas Eve and Day), and pedaling on our exercise bikes in the days following to burn off those fish and chips.
Now the holidays are over, the days are getting longer, and we must go back to the hustle and bustle of daily life, which I’m not quite ready to do just yet. But I’ll start with a couple of news items for Pecunarities.
