Daily 5 - Year 2, Day 305

Today's Daily 5:

1. a day mostly without rain, a blessing given rain is in the forecast and I remain worried about returning to Grandma's and finding my space wet and flooded again
2. a helpful person to talk with at the university
3. a long chance to catch up via skype with my former roommate L.
4. finding reasons to laugh with a friend, even one far away
5. the smell of cookies baking in the oven
6. news that friends welcomed a baby daughter into their lives early this morning
7. day dreaming about travel
8. smiling over the book "Positively Pooh" by A.A. Milne and Ernest H. Shepard
9. watching the series finale of M*A*S*H* on my yearly trip through all 11 seasons
10. a day that was mostly joyful, despite some painful challenges
