Oh and here is my Friday Five
When was the last time you...
1. ...sent a handwritten letter? I recently sent out all of my thank you notes for all of the lovely gifts I received for my bachelorette party, does that count? Oh, and a few months ago I sent a letter to Sandy, my best friend since 8th grade who doesn't have email and lives in Wyoming.
2. ...baked something from scratch or made something by hand?I think Christmas was the last time I baked something from scratch when the kids and I baked tons of cookies, the rest of the time I am lazy and bake stuff out of a box.
3. ...camped in a tent? Wow, it's been awhile. I would guess not since '93, Brittany was only a couple of years old and Jorge (exhusband) and I went camping with my dad for Father's Day. We were in Colorado and it was one of the best Father's Days I can remember, we really should do the camping thing more often but when we go to the lakes here we stay in John's family's lake cabin so there is no need for a tent because there we have a nice comfy bed to sleep in.
4. ...volunteered your time to church, school, or community? I co-lead Danielle's Brownie troop, so I spend every other Tuesday at her school with fourteen energetic 2nd and 3rd graders. I am also always there for school parties and although I don't make it as often as I would like, I do attend occasional PTO meetings. Once in a while I am a "Monday Morning" mom, which is a group of mom's who hang out together in the gym and do whatever projects the teachers leave for us like bulletin boards, making booklets, little projects they don't have time for. I seem to spend a lot of time coloring there. It's actually quite fun. :-)
5. ...helped a stranger? Last week an older woman pulled into my driveway driving a mini van and asked if I could help her figure out her air conditioner. I showed her how to work it and she went happily on her way.
