Small Successes and Thankful Thursday! Still around Edition

Well - still here! My energy seems to be returning, so maybe I will too! Also, our company is gone, and though it was a FUN visit, getting some more sleep and everyday routine will be nice as well. I can't wait for them to come back though - its truly having family visit. I wish I had more pics of their visit (I have some) but it was a busy stay for them especially, so not as much time to take shots.

With that though, comes a week with some successes! YAY!!!




1. Last night I made myself go to bed by 9pm, and when my alarm went off this morning at 6:30am - I felt like a MILLION dollars!!!!

2. Because of feeling SO good, I have already started all the laundry that piled up during the last few days, emptied and put out the trash, and straightened (not cleaned though) the downstairs, all before my goddaughter arrived at 8:30am!!!!!!!

3. I cooked dinners again this week! I had fallen away from cooking the past few weeks from illness, but I came back strong!

Empower Yourself....what have you done awesome??

Thankful Thursday
This week I'm most thankful for...

1. 34 year old b-days where the person can say as their "birthday wisdom" to keep on being playful in life....we'll all age, but having fun as we do it and living the life given to us is the way to go!
2. Goddaughter babies who sit in my lap cooing as I type, while 15 month old daughters snack in their high chair across from me and both giggle at each other.
3. 6 year old daughters who are not crabby in the morning (finally!!). I missed her smile and jokes!
4. weekend girl escapes - Lovely and I get to travel this weekend for bonding - YAY!!
5. incredible family.
6. my hubby. Love you!!!

And...love to you.....
