Small Successes

FaithButton
Celebrating the little things in life that add up.

1. I managed to wake up (and stay up) at 6AM this morning. This is no small feat when you have a husband who is away on a business trip. Why have I done such a crazy thing? I'm helping out a neighbor and watching her school aged kids this morning until school starts since she has to go in for surgery this morning. I hope a nap is in my future this afternoon.

2. I am caught up on all of the laundry. I'm happy that the small mountain has vanished.

3. The main level of the house is dusted.

Bonus 1: On a holiday note, I got more of the presents wrapped. I have just a few things left to wrap and then I'll be able to say that every gift I've purchased so far is wrapped. I also officially done shopping for my kids since I picked up stocking stuffers earlier this week.

Bonus 2: I only spent one day bummed out about my less than stellar new hair-do. Now I've moved on to hoping it will just grow a bit by Christmas.

  1. ... and you were the first to post your successes at F&F! :)

    I haven't wrapped anything yet... good for you! That cuts down on the peeking, doesn't it?

    I enjoyed your successes and your blog is charming.
