- Finding out that a rather problematic scheduling issue with one of my final exams would be fairly easily resolved, AND dealing with a very pleasant woman on the phone who promised to ensure that it is resolved.
- Lazy Tuesday mornings
- Mom made me a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch when I was in a big hurry while at their house briefly this morning, and was wondering out loud what on earth I'd eat since I didn't have time to throw something together. I love grilled cheese. I love that my mom knows that, and suggested it, and then offered to make it when I said it sounded good, but I didn't have time. It was SO tasty.
- spending an hour with L. this afternoon. Seriously can't say enough about how great it is to have her in the same city as me for a few days.
- I came home tonight and glanced up at my smile wall, and well, smile. I love this wall with a map of the world and great quotes and photos of the people I love pinned to it.
- I hung palm trees that arrived in the mail yesterday on the wall beside my bed tonight. There are two little palm beaches there, in my line of vision. Essential on days like today when the weather, with the windchill was sitting around a warm and cozy -35 C (That's -31 F for you Americans)
- got a few things marked off my to do list for the week
- still loving my iphone. I particularly like using Google Reader on it for catching up on blog reading while on the bus
- sliding my feet into my new slippers from New Zealand was like a little bit of heaven when I got home tonight and my toes were frozen.
- trading emails and facebook comments tonight with friends

Daily 5 - Year 2, Day 197
Today's Daily 5:
Most Read Posts February 2011
It's a new month. More on that later or in the days to come. In the meantime, here are the most read posts on my blog for the month of February.
Shifting Perspective - This post is one of my favorites that I've written recently. I talk about the moment in which I truly noticed a shift in my inner dialogue, beginning to recognize the fruit of all the time I've spent making Daily 5 lists over the last year and a half.
Coming Into Herself - Reflecting again on Grey's Anatomy and how God has so often spoken to me through a show that most write off as a trashy prime-time soap opera.
Resting - A placeholder, declaring quiet, while I headed off for a week's vacation.
Mini Reviews (Part 3) - Reviewing two different books. One not so recommended, and one that profoundly shaped my thoughts and life over the last six months.
Facebook Status Updates that Will Never Make It - the post that will not go away, and still garners regular search results, written after a particularly trying day during the time period where I was still employed by the job that my roommates fondly referred to as "The Soap Opera", asking for updates on the latest drama each night when I arrived home.
The Age of the Personal - a brilliant excerpt from Robert Benson's book "In Constant Prayer"
Discerning Voices - February was the month for talking about the voices and influences on my life, about what and who was shaping my thinking, and this post reflects that in its discussion of discerning which voices are helpful and which are harmful.
I am Learning - One of those rare posts where the words simply flowed, pecked out letter by letter on my iPhone as I waited at a bus stop. Again, the shifting perspective that showed up in February.
Comfort Zone - a moment of lightness, courtesy of The Big Bang Theory
Homeward Bound - the end of my time away, sitting in an airport, with plans to come home and steal one last weekend of rest.
