The Friday Five for February 16, 2024

[spacefem]

Hello friends, it's nice to be back on the admin schedule!

It's presidents' day in the US, so in honor of the long weekend...


1. Have you ever been the president of anything?

2. What do you think is the most important leadership trait?

3. What time period did you find the most interesting to learn about in history class?

4. What's something you think about doing, but you haven't gotten back into in several years?

5. If you could add one more random holiday to February, what would it be?

1. Have you ever been the president of anything?
Good god no, no one has ever been silly to put me in charge of anything, and that is the way I like it :)I'm neither a leader nor a follower, just a standing-by-the-size-vaguely-puzzled type...

2. What do you think is the most important leadership trait?
To listen and carefully consider advice, even if it's what you don't want to hear.

3. What time period did you find the most interesting to learn about in history class?
Oh, a lot of different periods and places, too many to list, and they shift and change every time I find a new one :) At the minute I am reading Plantagenet history (due to a book I got for Christmas) and some on retro Australia. Next month, who knows?

4. What's something you think about doing, but you haven't gotten back into in several years?
I started up knitting again when I retired, then got sidetracked by other stuff, I must pull out my knitting bag again soon. Maybe make some mitts for people for winter :)

5. If you could add one more random holiday to February, what would it be?
I don't work so holidays aren't that different any more (and here in Australia we do have a lot, comparatively speaking) so... umm, how about Let's Just Vegetate Day? Doing nothing and not feeling even slightly guilty...
