Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 200

Today's Daily 5:

1. text messages that made me laugh
2. sphygmomanometer - such a fun word to say
3. school ending a bit early today
4. my brand new laptop arriving
5. a super long skype chat with my bestest friend

Whimsical Wednesday, March 7, 2012

My sense of humor came into play as I picked images for Whimsical Wednesday this week.  After a tough week last week, the need to laugh was forefront in my mind, and a number of today's images reflect that.  As always, I'd love to hear if one of these made you chuckle, or stood out to you more than the others.

Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 199

Today's Daily 5:

1. Making it to school on time this morning despite some fairly major delays in traffic thanks to an overnight snow storm
2. That this wasn't one of the days in which it was key to make it to school on time - no paper or exam first thing
3. Getting back both grades from last week's crazyness, the one I was confident in, and the one I wasn't, and feeling very happy with both results
4. finally getting caught up on email
5. an evening with a decent amount of time in which to enjoy quiet and rest

Tuesday Anticipations, March 6, 2012

This week I'm anticipating:

• a "wee natter" as she would say, with my bestest friend, via skype
• my first actual experience with patients, doing immunizations at an elementary school
• hanging out with another dear friend and catching up in the truly random and unlikely venue of a hockey game
• a trip to the zoo with my favorite little guy and his mom who is a good friend
• handing in a paper that had been hanging over my head for several weeks
• enjoying some missionaries who are coming to share with our house church
• making plans to eat Indian food with a friend from school
• finding moments to laugh
• looking for places where God is working
• a mostly quiet weekend

What are you anticipating in the week ahead?

Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 198

Today's Daily 5:

1. a wonderful spiritual direction session
2. finishing up a paper that's been hanging over my head for a couple weeks
3. peanut butter and jelly sandwich
4. spending the afternoon with a friend who is a midwife, getting some help with some of my nursing skills, talking life overseas, and laughing, laughing, laughing together (not to mention collecting a couple of hugs)
5. a surprise phone call from another friend - catching up, laughing, and chatting - it was a day with the kind of connections that feed my soul instead of drain it, and that was so needed after the week I had last week.
