Random 5 Friday: Nonnie's Five


1. The Colorado Blue Spruce I received 
from Lowe's has grown an inch and a half 
since before Christmas.  Color me excited!
2. I spent a lot of time today sorting through stacks
of papers and photos on my computer.  It's rather
a thankless job because there's nothing to show for it,
meaning the papers have been shredded and the photos
are gone from the digital albums.
3. During my sorting of papers, 
I happened upon an incomplete journal entry 
that I had begun three years ago.  
I culled through my memory bank to finish the anecdote .
4. I enjoyed scrapbooking at my sister-in-law's
yesterday.  It had been more than a month since
we last met for that activity.  It is so much more fun 
scrapbooking in a group than doing it solo.
5. I seem to be on a see-saw concerning 
exercise and writing on a regular basis.  I hope that
I vow to myself to try harder to be more consistent.

do you know where the saying "color me excited" came from? i need to look it up & see. i love that it has grown up for you ... are you getting lots of light? water? need feeding that tree. ( :

no, I never thought about the phrase. I use 'color me' with about any emotion! the tree sits in the east window just over my sink, so yes, the tree gets lots of light, and water is available! thanks for caring. am I getting enough light? probably not, with the bone-chilling temperatures, I rush to my car and rush into wherever I'm going.

It has grown nicely and I like the glass in the window.
I will always make scrapbooking, but I find no real beginning ... have no one who participates with me -
Clear digital photos is strange - they disappear into nothingness -
Have a nice weekend

I'm just cycled in the sunshine...

As far as writing, I find this time of year particularly difficult to come up with new things to write about -- so you are not alone. I hope to be more prolific in the weeks to come as well. :)
Will you be able to plant it outside?

I'm amazed that a tree would grow this time of year!

I have struggled to find time to write anything this winter. It's killing me as I'm trying to write the second novel in my fantasy series.

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
