Five Things

 

If I continue this in the new year, I may turn it into a list of five random things, like I do Thursday 13. Or I may drop it. We'll see.

Last week, I:

1. had the house cleaned.

2. saw the podiatrist.

3. had a haircut.

4. received a wonderful surprise in the mail from an old friend, which I will write about in another post.

5. saw a coyote and a bear!

In solidarity with federal workers, who were tasked in late February 2025 with listing 5 things they did the prior week in order to keep their jobs, I started listing 5 things I did last week every Monday. On August 5, 2025, the federal government decided this was a waste of employees' time (as if we all didn't know that already). I have decided to keep it up, at least for now. I may stop it at any time.
