Questions for February

[pattrose]

What are three great things that happened yesterday?

Let's see. I got six hours of sleep, which was very good. I haven't been sleeping too much. When I do it, it's a luxury. I made homemade vegetable soup with ground turkey. I prefer that over hamburger. And third, I watched a movie called McFarlane, USA. It was on Disney. Kevin Costner was in it, but I don't care for him at all. Well, I loved him in it. It was such a heartwarming film. I just loved it so much. Maria Bella played his wife. She was great too. I love feel-good movies. I know what you're thinking about right now. (those are great things?)
When you get as old as I am, you're thankful for more laid back things.

If anyone wants 60 questions for journal use, let me know. I'll send the list.
Have a wonderful day, everyone.

Those are great things! Good sleep, good food, good entertainment? What could be better. I hope you have a wonderful day today too.

Also I would love the list of 60 questions for journal use. My daily Chinese journal too often goes like this: "So it's night time again and I don't know what to write, but I have to write 500 words so let's see how long it takes me to reach my goal. The dog is already asleep. I should be too. This is a very boring journal entry." Ha ha. So I collect and very much appreciate any prompts.
