The Five W's

April 30's 10 Things to Be Happy About

1. Dry Wood for Kindling - If I can find it, it makes me really happy but when it's always damp like in the Poconos it makes it really hard to find any dry kindling. We have to bring it into the house to dry for a week before we can even think about trying to use it to burn a fire. It's very frustrating sometimes.

2. A Day for Sports - We haven't had many of those this Spring as it has been raining most of April which sucked. I think we had the most rain that I ever remember having in this month. I love playing sports when it is not too hot but not too cold either...that is the perfect sports day.

3. So Few Weeks 'til Summer - One week from today I will be relaxing on my back patio and not having a care in the world about school. It will be nice to relax and not be freaking out about school and finals.

4. Pink and Yellow Carnations - Carnations have so many colors why do pink and yellow get chosen out of all of those colors. Oh well...still pretty.

5. A Window Jungle of Plants - It's really funny how many people fill their window sills with all kinds of different plants in the winter to make the room seem a little more colorful.

6. Baptisia Plants - These are very pretty plants and I enjoy seeing them throughout the many gardens that surround my home and others homes.

7. Walks Through Tiny Downtowns - You never know what you'll find in a tiny downtown because there usually are not chain stores which makes going through the stores that much more fun. I love going to visit Lewisburg because they have a bunch of interesting shops in town that you can't find anywhere else.

8. The Five W's - Who? What? Where? When? Why? and you can't forget the one H...How? I think that these are the best thing you can learn when you're a little kid because using the questions to ask different things about subjects you don't know is a good tool.

9. Becoming a Student Pilot - I could never fly a plane but kudos to those who can. That kind of stuff scares the crap out of me and I'm glad that I've never had to even try to do it. Planes have scared me ever since 9/11 along with the fact that my least favorite part of plane rides is the take off and landing.

10. Sturdy Furniture - Who doesn't like sturdy furniture...it's the kind that doesn't fall apart when you sit in it. My boyfriends father has to have very sturdy furniture or else it may break beneath him because of his balance.
