FIVE days till graduation?

I'm going to summarize this week, because as it turns out, I didn't do much. I started a novel this week about a trio of sisters, called "True Colors," but I only got about 50 pages into it at the pool. I might read a bit more if I lay out again this week.

I had a GREAT week with my plant -- it bloomed! That's right, I mothered a plant to bloom. I terrified my roommate one morning this past week because I shrieked in glee when I noticed it had two buds growing. Apparently, my "water whenever you remember" philosophy has been working out better for me & the plant recently.

I've also been around to a few tag sales the past few weekends, and I found the most wonderful chair on Saturday. So I'm upping my furniture count, although my mother is becoming somewhat exasperated that I keep buying seating and not other important things, like lamps or a dining room table.

I did exercise this week too. We had distribution Monday through Wednesday, so I lifted the fun, 70-pound boxes for five or six hours each day. It's amazing what you can push your body to do, actually. Then Thursday I walked home. It's also amazing how OK I can be about not exercising for the latter half of this past week and justify it by saying I "exercised" a lot early in the week.

-- Till next time.
