Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 95

Today's Daily 5:

  1. Thankful that I didn't have any plans today, and could simply rest in bed when illness settled in overnight
  2. Naps.  I think I took at least three today, and all were lovely.
  3. Skyping with L.  So much fun, always, to connect with one of my favorite people, even with some technical glitches today.
  4. The refreshment of a shower.
  5. foods that taste good when you're sick - applesauce, pancakes made from scratch.  Soft, gentle stuff for my aching throat and tired body.

Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 94

Today's (well yesterday's really) Daily 5:

  1. Friday
  2. finishing work early
  3. managing to accomplish an errand
  4. Korean BBQ with a good friend
  5. the laughter and conversation that comes while sharing a meal with a long time friend

Friday!

Y'all, I'm so glad it's Friday.

This week has been full of lots of good things, but it's been busy, and I haven't had much quiet, or much rest.

That whole routine I had going of having time to wind-down at night, away from my computer? Out the window this week.  And inspite of giving up that extra hour or more each night, my email inbox still looks somewhat overwhelming to me. 

I have almost no formal plans this weekend, and I can't wait.

I'm going out for Korean food with one of my oldest friends tonight (she spent some time teaching in Korea and knows just what to order).  I'm skyping tomorrow with a very dear friend living on another continent - one of my favorite people.  But other than that, nothing set in stone.  I have a (growing) list of tasks and reading and writing to accomplish, but they're all things that can be done at a gentle pace, and from the comfort of a couch, with my laptop.  A couple of key things are already off that list, as I made some phone calls this morning that were actually productive.

So, a weekend enjoying just a bit of time with friends, and lots of time to rest and/or accomplish.

Can't wait!

Ask Me Anything

I'd love to have some more questions for another set of You Ask, I Answer posts.

So, ask me anything!  It can be totally random.  It can be political or spiritual or intellectual.

Today is your day - ask anything, and if you leave questions, I'll make a list and answer them in their own set of posts!
