RandomLand 1: Because… NUMBER5
Hey there Sweeties…
It’s Friday and I’ve decided to embrace some new RANDOM fun by hopping aboard Random 5 Friday over at A Rural Journal. 
Because…
- A. the picture above is so darned cute I simply HAD to play and…
- B. I’m working towards noticing and celebrating what one of my characters calls the Sacred Random when it shows up in my life and…
- C. FIVES are also incredibly important to some characters I am playing with … and to me these days – Five elements, Five senses… five five five five five. This is the year of FIVE.
The idea is to post 5 random facts about… pretty much anything…. and then to share the link over on the Rural Journal site. Tis fun, n’est pas? Here goes…
~~o~~
1. Gigglefest confession
I cannot say “A Rural Journal” without bringing to mind Tina Fey and the hilarious episode of 30 Rock where Jenna is in a movie whose title no one can understand…. Can you name the movie? anyone? anyone?
2. Look what I won!
Just found out this morning that I am the proud winner of a fabulous pendant featuring one of my all time sHeroines – the rootenest-tootenest sharp-shootenest gal of the west – Annie Oakley! Born Phoebe Ann Moses (or Mosey) in Darke County Ohio, it’s been said that Annie could shoot the head off a running quail when she was twelve years old. My kinda gal!

Much thanks to Tanya for the fabulous give-away and to Vicki over at 2 Bags Full for hosting the 2014 Grow Your Blog party which is how I met Vicki and entered to WIN.
3. Rising Early actually feels pretty good.
Lately I have been rising at 5am.
My body underwent a crazy shift a few years back from night-owl to strangely wakeful morning woman.
I’m still learning to embrace the change and enjoy the sunrise from THIS side.
It helps with the “getting things done” too.
4. Numbers
I apparently have a deep seated NEED to NUMBER things. I number the Shake n Bakes, and now I number this post…. in the hopes, no doubt, that by NUMBERING them I will feel a wee push to… keep on doing it weekly.
Ah the games I play with mySelf.
5. Did you know…
FIVE is the holy number of Discordianism, as dictated by the Law of Fives.
Is this a “real” religion? Dunno, man – but it sure tickles my RANDOMbone.
~~o~~
There you have it – our first official visit to RandomLand. May there be many adventures to follow.
Have a great weekend ~p

Quite interesting Randoms!! I love that Annie Oakley pendant. I’m a little jealous that you won that 🙂
I am totally going to Swan About in my new pendant.

Love that you say you are “way too happy” lately in your latest Random…. Made me smile.
What a cute pendant that is, and how amazing that annie oakley fact. Looks like you are doing well on the year of fives so far!
Hey Jeanne…it’s true… I AM doing well, aren’t I? Doesn’t always feel that way – but tis true, tis true.
And I am grateful for it, too.
Lucky you, that pendent seems perfect for you. I have always been a morning person yet 2 of my 3 sons are night owls…go figure!
