    Friday Five!

    Found over at Friday 5! When did you last have to ‘MacGyver’ something? In what way were you spontaneous this week? What have you recently completed at the last minute? How good are you at thinking up a quick lie? What’s your personal time organizer system like? A couple weeks ago. I have two cats. One of them I have to stuff into the carrier with much fight. But, once he is in there, he just chills out. The other? Good LORD. If put into a carrier, she will puke, pee, and shit. By the time we get to the vet, it is a real mess. So, I saw this…

    Friday Five!

    Found over at Friday Five! Among people you know, who seems to be a natural leader? When have you had leadership thrust upon you? Are you most effective as the person at the front of the line motivating others to come along, the behind-the-scenes-make-sure-everything-gets-done second-in-command, the enthusiastic follower, or the devil’s advocate? Where did you learn most of your leadership skills? What is a most underrated leadership skill? My friend Ann. She is seriously the most kick-ass woman I have ever met. She not only talks the talk, but she walks the walk. She is currently pursuing her Ph.D (at almost age 50!) She is extremely vocal, unapologetic, and fierce.…

And now, I am taking the steps needed to do just that! The new business venture!! That I wail fail at said business venture! Aside from my hubby? Hmm.. no one that I can think of…

    Friday Five!

    Found over at Friday 5! When did you most recently experience the beginning of a beautiful friendship? For whom did you last stick your neck out? What matters more to you, and what matters less as time goes by? What have you been shocked-shocked!-to learn this week? Who’s looking at you, kid? It has been awhile. I really thought that I had struck up a friendship with someone at work. But, no. She is a snake, apparently. I used to go to bat for my boss a lot. Now that she has let me go and ceased talking to me, I won’t do that anymore. My peace of mind matters…

    FRIDAY FIVE!

    ON SATURDAY. Found over at Friday 5! How did you spend this 21st night of September? When did you last hear bells ringing (real bells, not something electronic)? What have you done in recent months to chase the clouds away for someone else? What are some good songs sung in falsetto? Of earth, wind, and fire, which is likeliest to have a positive influence on your weekend? I made dinner, and then the hubby and I settled in to watch Survivor and The Amazing Race. Survivor premiered just after we started dating, and we have never missed it! It is our ‘thing” … 🙂 Hm. I really cannot recall the…
