Anyone else feel like the work challenges keep coming? Esp stuff you can’t plan for.
Today’s strategy:
1- take a step back
2-focus on the positive
3- appreciate those around you

Bachelorettes, bachelors, and bourbon.

Caught up with old friends, made some new friends and ate some great food. Later, Louisville!

What grown woman doesn’t need this? Loved this surprise at the end of a long day. Another year around the sun and thankful for the people in my life.

8/ this is a definite change. There were definitely times people showed up to work sick- for a variety of reasons. Didn’t think they could afford to take the time. Not wanting to inconvenience anyone. Not wanting to ask for help.

Anyone else feel like they’re winning after
- all loads of laundry are done&folded
- aside from the clothes that are on, all clothing in the house is clean
- the sock monster (aka- pile of unmatched socks on top of the dryer) coughed up 7 pairs of socks

Just me?

That’s cool.

Hubs & I grew up where it wasn’t said much, but we knew we were loved. We intentionally said it a lot to our kids when they were little & now as adults. It’s become common to text our family thread when we travel even when we aren’t together.
