My 5 on Friday list for today:
1. I miss-placed my wallet the other day and didn't freak out about it. I'm either maturing in my older age or realized I don't need a wallet to shop online (thank you, Paypal) even though I'm not doing that Shane.
2. Working with your husband on a project has nothing to do with being married. All the usual niceties can go out the window. You might as well be a paid day laborer, because "it's not personal, it's business."
3. I've lost 5 pounds in a week by following the Paleo diet concept.
4. I love me some Cuties. Yum.
5. Retiring two blog memes is giving me the time to read and connect more with your blogs, which I'm enjoying.
According to our lovely meme hosts, Kim and Xanthe,
"To play 5 on Friday, simply write a blog post sharing your 5 on Friday. Pop back and link up below using the inlinkz gadget... If you'd rather just post a photo with 5 on flickr or IG...that's cool too. Link away sweet friends. Oh and no panic.... the link up will be open all week....not just on friday...."
Please join us for 5 on Friday to reveal something interesting facts about yourself and meet other bloggers who are doing the same.
If this is your first time visiting A Rural Journal, I'd like to invite you to subscribe via email for the latest updates. You can also connect with me on Facebook, Pinterest and Flickr.
I think I found your 5 dang pounds and I'd like to send it back!
ReplyDeleteDon't you realize the two leading causes of marital discord are joint home reno projects and the Christmas tree? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI do hope you have found your wallet.
ReplyDeleteWorking with your husband can be (not necessarily is) grounds for divorce. It works out better if one of you reads the dimensions right...
I lost my cell phone... I really am sad about that, now I have to learn how to use the new one.
Good on you with the diet! I lost a couple too, according to my doctor's scale. Our scale however is lying to me.
Um, I found five too - and I'd really like them to disappear! Two days of eating healthy are encouraging the hope they will be gone before Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOh Mrs A sure started something with her comment:)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you have time for you Nancy and I love your working with Hubby yup it is business, my BOSS is kind of cute though so it is a little distracting whoops I am the BOSS:)
Have a nice weekend my friend Hug B
I'm glad you're enjoying having a little more time. It can be so hard to find the time for the things we enjoy, so good for you! Have a nice weekend, Nancy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image!!
ReplyDeleteDon't I know what you mean about projects with hubby .... Sheesh!
I just transferred the majority of my Paypal account into checking to cover bills. It hurt, a little. I'd much rather be shopping online ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 5 pounds! And during December too!
Dont speak to me about losing wallets. I seem to lose mine more than I have it. Some say I do it to get out of paying for stuff.... If only that were true it would be a pretty sweet deal.
ReplyDeleteHave a COOL weekend Nancy

ReplyDeleteI am glad you are no more a slave of your blogs.
ReplyDeleteTJ & I ran a business together for 11 years. There were times we wanted to kill each other, so I know what you mean. Yay for Paleo eating. It is very similar to low carb. I lived low carb for 5 years and never felt better.
ReplyDeleteAh, working with the mate, eh? It's complicated! Congrats on the five pound loss. Pass the Cuties, please!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! I'm glad you're enjoying the extra time you've gained. :-)
