Exam Day

I have my final clinical evaluation and first final exam today.

My second final is tomorrow.

Tonight I'm hanging out with the house church gang to eat Chinese and drink wine.

It's just that kind of day.

Where it's about doing and not so much about writing.

But I'm hopeful that as I head into a month of time off, from rest will spring writing.  Hooray for that!

Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 352

1. a lazy, restful day
2. watching the show "Parenthood" on Netflix
3. a good olympic medal day for Canada
4. spending the afternoon cooking with a good friend
5. baby cuddles and little boy cuddles

Whimsical Wednesday, August 8, 2012

Per usual, it's a truly random and eclectic mixture here today.  Things that made me laugh or smile.  Things filled with whimsy.  Words of wisdom or truth.

As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts on these images!
