Five Things

 


Last week I;

1. Got the house all nice and clean.

2. Wrote a couple of poems.

3. Worked on my secret project with Chad and Sage.

4. Read two books. (My Friends by Fredrik Bachman - excellent! and Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes - excellent!)

5. Saw the chiropractor.


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 since it's a quick way to get something on the blog for Monday. Since I don't have a regular job, it's a fairly mundane list.

  1. I believe I read the book at some point. My parents had lots of books and that was one of them. It was sad. I hate when people are taken advantage of. There are so many mean people in the world. Now you have me wondering about your secret passage.

  2. Flowers for Algernon! I read that in high school and loved it. I should that pick it up again now. I've reread To Kill a Mockingbird and Gatsby, but not Flowers for Algernon or a Separate Peace. Thanks for the add to my TBR.
