  3. still going strong with the green smoothies, even though the challenge ended 3 days ago
  4. a delivery of flowers - sent from my best friend on the other side of the planet to cheer me on in the homestretch of studying for my nursing boards this week - totally made me ugly cry
  5. a bubble bath to study, and then chill out with a novel
