Solena D. had a bad dream

Book fair 6 minutes ago

AGW, I’m going to a book fair this Saturday (largest one I can reach).
At the same time, I’m going nowhere with this goal :(

I know I’ll spend the whole week looking for books to buy on sale come Saturday, and while I know I shouldn’t be looking for suggestions, I can’t help it….

Go whitewater rafting

In response to CharityAK's entry, "Untitled"…
So, did you do this? — 3 minutes ago

I haven’t done it in several years but I always enjoy it when I do. Do you have any experience with it? I don’t know what class rivers you have where you are but if you have no experience, I would not reccommend any river above class 3, i.e. only class 3 or 2. Actually class 3 is a good place to start. Class 2, even for a beginner, is a bit ho hum.
As you may know, as you go up the scale in river rafting (i.e. class 3, 4, 5, 6) the biggest difference isn’t necessarily in the situations you encounrter on the river, but there are many more of them and they happen one right after another. When I first did a class 4 river, I had done class 3’s for maybe 4 times and decided I was ready to try it. There weren’t any different kinds of turns, twists, rapids, etc. but they came one after another after another after another. I found it difficult to catch my breath. It takes way more stamina to do. I have never done a class 5 and probably won’t unless I get lots more experience with class 4. Class 6, is only for people with a death wish.

Good job, getting up early in the morning can be really difficult. But once you get used to it, it becomes easier and easier.

Good job! It is said that happiness is a journey not a destination. I’m sure that if you ‘force’ yourself to enjoy your mundane tasks then your life will be a whole lot happier.
