It is time for Random 5...I didn't know if there was going to be one so do not have them prepared. Consequently, I have to come up with them on the spur of the moment.
1. First of all, this makes my 6th time of doing a Random 5 post. I thought I had only did two or three. It is one of my favorite memes.
2. The pretty leaf season is almost entirely gone. Every once in a while we come across a tree that still has some color, sometimes even a lot of color. We wonder how they have survived when everything else is bare. Tuesday when we went to Arthur, IL we even saw a couple or three trees that were still green. We really wondered about that.
3. You can actually see my dining room table for a change. I am not quite sure when we began putting stuff on the dining room table, but it has become a real bad habit. I assume when both girls moved out is when it started. And got worse. Now, there is usually coloring books and crayons sitting on it. Add a book or two or three of mine, and the sales ad from the local grocery store. So I cleaned it off yesterday and really want to stop using it as a catch all.
4. The mouse I use is really aggravating....it is so heavy that I will set it aside and be in the middle of something, and it will click where ever the cursor is. Or the page will close down. On its own, or sometimes I just bump it from the side and it does it. So aggravating. Yet it has the back button and the forward button on the side by the thumb that I use so much and was the one most comfortable to my hand. I do not like using the touchpad unless it is the only option available.
5. Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. I didn't make that up, but it always makes me chuckle; also a bit of truth in it. It always amazes me how I can be sitting sewing, and lose my scissors or thimble or thread or something. Times when I have not gotten up for anything...not moved from my chair. Yet will completely lose something. And will have to spend 15 or 20 minutes to find the item.
Random 5 Friday
