I first completed this meme a WHILE ago… and at that time it was lists of eight things.  But my partner in crime this month, the fabulous Alison from Writing, Wishing and I decided that five was enough. 😉  We are firm believers in simplifying our lives…

So, here are a few lists of five for you to share with us and your readers too!

We sure hope you’ll join us for Old School blogging. Don’t forget to tweet with us (@elainea and @AlisonSWLee) and use the hashtag #OSBlog.
