Happy Halloween! And Happy Small Success Thursday, where the fans of CatholicMom.com get together and give ourselves a gold star for getting through the week despite whatever challenges life throws our way.
Look! We even have a spiffy new logo! (Dorian, you rock!)
Want to play along? Just trumpet 3 (or more) accomplishments you’ve made this week.
1. It’s Halloween, and I’ve had the candy in the house for 3 weeks now. I didn’t break into it. Those who know me know just how big a deal that is. But once I turn off the porch light tonight, all bets are off and all leftovers are mine.
2. Finally I can sing a whole song without stopping to cough. It only took 4 weeks and a really expensive inhaler. Boy, it feels good to sing out!
3. I haven’t “lost it” yet. I’m hanging in there. Caregiving is not my best subject, but I have managed to get through yet another week without breaking down or taking it out on anyone else. I saw this on Facebook–it really sums me up:
Hook up with us over at CatholicMom.com and celebrate YOUR small successes!
OMGosh, Barb, I LOVE that graphic! It’s awesome!
Congrats on the whole breathing thing, too. And the candy. WILLPOWER! 🙂
The not eating candy is a big success!
Keeping candy in the house for 3 weeks and not eating it deserves its very own Small Success Thursday.
Love #1.
I like that graphic from FB. I am both of those. I am calm for a long time. But eventually, I combust!
Hugs and prayers, Barb.
I’ve been hitting the candy on a regular basis for the past month–I’m just glad that there was still some left for tonight! 🙂
