I often remark how the week has flown by, but this one seemed faster than most. I often keep a running list of what to include in each week's Friday's Fave Fives. Somehow I didn't this week, and I am scrambling to remember what actually happened. 🙂 That's one of many things this exercise is good for: encouraging us to stop, consider, remember, and be thankful. I'm grateful for our hostess, Susanne, at Living to Tell the Story.
1. Strands, another once-a-day game from the NY Times in the same family as Wordle and Connections. It's sort of like Boggle or Ruzzle in that you find words in a grid of several letters. But each letter is only used once, and all the words have a common theme. Jesse, my youngest son, introduced me to it. I like these things not only because they're fun, but they're good brain exercise.
2. Taco or pita holders. My husband made these with his 3-D printer. I told him he should make more and sell them on Etsy.
The one on the right holds two, or it can be turned over to hold three.
3. Another quiet week. Some of the spring-break-canceled activities were back this week, but otherwise, there were no events or appointments til this weekend. I enjoy activities once I'm actually there, but I *love* quiet weeks. I've got some medical appointments over the next three weeks and had several earlier this year, so it was nice to have a couple of appointment-free weeks.
4. Our writing critique group. I may have mentioned this before. We meet every other week via Zoom and take turns offering our edits and critiques on one person's work each session. Then we added a fifteen minute free-time extension for those who could stay just to talk about writing or publishing, ask questions, etc. I'm so inspired by the discussions, no matter whose work we're discussing.
5. Prayer. Some in our church are going through rough times. It's such a blessing not only to pray for them, but to hear the care and concern as people ask about them.
And that's a wrap for this week! How was yours?
