5 ON FRIDAY


Kim and Xanthe have returned with their revamped 5 ON FRIDAY, so I am hoping to get back into sharing five interesting things from the week.


1. Glen and I have been doing an on-line writing class together, the main activity each day is to think and write on the daily word prompt for 5 minutes. We are having a great time doing this together and it has become my favorite 5 minutes of the day.

2. I really need a rainy day so I won't be tempted to go out exploring each afternoon. I need to get a few things done around the house, including laundry and ironing. Yuck! No wonder I would rather go explore.


3. So proud of my girl today as she wings her way to New Mexico, all by herself, for a conference on Native Americans. You are an amazing young woman Mallory Huizenga!

4. I bought some things to hang on the walls this week, we will see how long it is before they get hung up. It took almost two months from the time of purchase until it was on the wall for the last picture.


5. My favorite shot of the week... so far...

My hubby wanted to take the class too, but I knew as soon as he read the first couple lessons he'd change his mind. I didn't even mention it again. LOL great pic of Mallory. Have you done any selfies this week?

The writing class sounds like fun! Ironing? I use rainy days to be lazy - but that's probably not a good thing. #5 is very cool - I love the one yellow seed and the blue sky - terrific!

Your daughter sounds like an amazing person - like her Mom! Such a great list for the 5 - your 5 minutes a day sound so sweet!

Dotti said...

Have to agree with others - The writing course sounds awesome and it looks like there is good reason for you to be proud of your beautiful daughter. Isn't being a mom great?

A class together sounds wonderful and fun...how proud you must be to witness your daughter growing up into an independent, young woman. It's a good feeling as a parent, isn't it? And that last photo with the lone yellow berry (it is a berry, right?) is fantastic! Thanks for sharing with us. :)

I can't even begin to imagine doing the writing course with my husband!I just asked him what he thought of this and he replied " well if you need any help..." - no I think he's missing my point! And I don't need any help! lol!

That writing class sounds great. I could use something like that. And how proud you must be of your daughter!!

Beautiful imagery! Perfect for 5 on Friday! Why does housework and laundry never seem to end? No matter how busy you are, it doesn't seem to care. It's still there waiting...

Stephanie said...

My housework has suffered terribly since i discovered blogging. It's a lot more fun to go out exploring.

CarolAnn said...

Great list! I love the last photo. Very creative! Exploring is always better than laundry and ironing!
