Oh My Forgetful Self!!!

Um, so what happened to Five Random Things Thursday? I guess I was just so excited that I finished a book and could review that for my post that I totally omitted my random list. And I suppose, according the title of this little blog deal-io of mine, that is probably the purpose.

So here we go with a random list...Saturday style.

1. I love it when my team wins. I have actually been known to cry during March Madness when my Blue Devils lost. Actually, that night I was also screaming at the television. Screaming and crying. It was a tad over the top. But tonight there was no screaming or crying. At the television, that is. Because the Cougars took down Old Miss! Pretty happy to report it, too. I thought they would get their trash kicked. I'm happy to be wrong when my team comes out with the W!

2. I played some Monopoly today with my nephew. And I think I don't remember the rules. I sort of made things up as we went along. I am pretty sure the last time I played was sometime in the eighties.

3. My friend, Jen, married a guy who is almost eight years younger. Love it. But I especially love how hard we laughed when we...that is Jen, J. Phil, and I...realized that her hubbers probably doesn't really know too much about Ronald Reagan. Reagan is the first presidential that I remember, although I was alive for the Carter years. Wow...just starting to feel a little aged!

4. I've been walking a lot. I mean...A LOT! Boy howdy have I missed the cool mornings and evenings. I've logged over fifteen miles of walking this week alone. I just cannot get enough of the great out of doors around these parts! I've especially been enjoying some walking and talking. I take the telephone along and chat with the friends. It's stupendous.

5. Things in my life aren't perfect. And I am scared. Really and truly. I am up and then I am down. But I am learning that despite all the fear and anxiety, I can also believe. I don't have to turn into a doubter just because in a week's time I'm not steadily employed with my true love by my side. You know? I can be terrified, but I can still have faith that everything will work out for the best.

Well, that's it. Good night!
