The Cabbage Patch

Small Successes (11)

 

1.  I knit and finished a baby hat for Brother's ABA therapist.  I've been having difficulty finishing projects of late.  Actually, I've not had the desire to knit in a long time.

2.  I went to 3 doctor's appointments this week.  I've been neglecting my health since having children.  I'm taking charge.

3.  We had home cooked meals all week.  Now, granted last night we had a potluck dinner with our homeschool group after stations of the cross, but we didn't spend any money for dinner.

Small Successes (10)

 

1.  The front area where our bushes sit has been looking terrible for a long time.  The mulch keeps getting washed down in those few days when it rained.  We purchased some border to contain the mulch and planted some flowering perennials.  Honey's comment when we finished was "Now our house looks pretty."

2.  I started washing all the winter comforters.  It's a small success but one that's not satisfying because, well, the weather is turning colder again.  Have I learned nothing in the past few years living in this state?  ;)

3.  Loaded several talks and music on my iPod.  I've had it for a while now but haven't listened to a thing on it.  My computer is soooo slow that it's been taking me forever to load things on it.  I need some more RAM.  Maybe I'll be able to put that on my small successes next week.

Small Successes (7)

 

1.  I exercised twice this week (and twice last week).  I would've tonight but we had what is number 2.

2.  Stations of the Cross.  Our homeschool group did a children's stations of the cross.  It was nice.  We even had a couple of dads.

3.  Three days of school without fuss.  It's been nice.  Brother has even finished in a timely manner.

Small Successes (5)

 

1.  Started plans for Lent.  It's only mental plans but it's a start.

2.  Ben and I went out on a date for Valentine's Day.  We just went to the bookstore after the children were in bed, but it's a biggie. 

3.  Continuing to read aloud to children during lunch.

Small Successes Week 4

 

I didn't get around to doing this last week.  I'm going to try to do this each week because I really need to focus on the positive. 

1.  I finished a couple of baby hats for presents.  Needless to say, I had not been able to pick these knitting projects up.

2.  I started our tax return.

3.  I cleaned the upstairs bathroom. 

Not a lot of stuff; just enough.  Go to Faith and Family for more. 

Small Successes

 

1.  Getting up every morning, taking a shower and tackling the day.  This is good because my inclination is to hide in bed all day.  I'm fighting that desire every single day.  I don't want to do anything so instead I've been working hard to clean, de-clutter, and do the every day things necessary to run the house.

2.  Read aloud to children during lunch.

3.  I haven't cried today.
