It's the little things

Obviously, if you read my last post you know I'm not exactly having a good week already. Our failed attempt at baby making affects all aspects of my life. I tried not to let it get to me at work today, but I kind of felt blase about the whole work thing when I got up today. I didn't really interact with the kids that much today, I made them do silent work. That's always nice....=)

So when things feel bad like this, all of the nice little things that people say or do start to add up and make me feel better. I'm going to make a list here to appreciate them all.

1. Last night we made ribs, twice baked mashed potatos, and strawberry shortcake. It was a great meal and it made me think of summer.
2. Then this morning Kendall packed my lunch.
3. The kids weren't total monsters for once.
4. At the staff meeting after school the school psychologist brought a bunch of cookies that were delicious, including one of my favorites- peanutbutter kiss.
5. When I got home today there was a card from Viki in the the mailbox with fun pictures inside. I look fat in all the shots, but there's a super cute one of Kendall. (See picture)
6. My friends left me some nice notes. Even if they don't understand what I'm going through, at least they're supportive.
6. My dogs gave me kisses.

A Classic Kendall "Look"- the official one I fell for.

And that's just through 4PM! I now plan on going to read my trashy romance novel. That always makes me feel better.
