Daily 5 - Day 325

Today's Daily 5:
  1. 325 days of making daily 5 lists.
  2. lots of fun with my family working on a big landscaping project at mom and dad's house this weekend
  3. sleeping at mom and dad's for a couple nights again, and not waking up at the systematically regular and specific hours I wake at grandma's.
  4. laughter
  5. weekend days that are mostly "unplugged" - not hours in front of a computer screen.  no obligation, just checking email on my iphone several times a day (and on my laptop at night) to make sure nothing urgent has arisen.  the rest can usually wait for Monday to be sorted through.

Beautiful Waves

It's been a while since I posted one of these quizzes here, but this one was somewhat irresistible.  A dear friend and I have been talking about waves literally and metaphorically for at least two years now.  It's one of our favorite symbols, or at least one of the ones most talked about between us.  When I saw a quiz titled "What kind of waves do you make?" pop up this morning, I had to take it, and the results made me smile and maybe even giggle a little.


You Make Beautiful Waves




Life would be boring if you just sat back and watched it unfold.

You like to make things happen, but in a very ordered and interesting way.

You don't really like chaos. You tend to plan throughly and execute your plans well.

You are very creative, eloquent, and expressive. You know how to accomplish great things, even if you're just playing around.

Daily 5 - Day 324

Today's Daily 5:
  1. Mom picked me up from grandma's this morning - this was excellent, since I wasn't at mom and dad's yesterday, and had hauled my enormous anatomy textbook home with me on Thursday night.  It was nice to not have to haul that on the bus this morning.
  2. Just hanging out, helping with a number of projects that are going on at Mom and Dad's this weekend
  3. Sitting outside for large portions of the day
  4. more good moments with my brother J.
  5. sleeping over at mom and dad's tonight - makes tomorrow, when I need to be here all day for a variety of commitments so much easier.
