I feel like I’m starting to be myself again. Today I had energy, I was being silly with the kids, I didn’t cry once, I didn’t get completely overwhelmed once…I think I may just be back.
Bingo night at my kids’ school was really fun even though it was REALLY loud. Who knew Bingo was so exciting? My kids go to a wonderful school.
Parent teacher conferences were this week and my kids made me so proud. Of course it’s nice to see good grades, but isn’t really wonderful when they tell you that your child is a good person?
Olivia scored a 13/13 on a UNADAPTED pop quiz in Science!!! Isn’t she amazing??
My friend introduced me to Hip2Save and I scored 10 free Christmas cards! Now if I can just figure out how to get the rest that I need for free…
I bought the new Olivia book for Olivia at the book fair. I love those stories. She’s a pill just like my Olivia.
Facebook chats with your Australian friend at 8 a.m. are a great way to start a day, in case you were wondering. Right Hannah? I was cracking her up because I didn’t know how long a “fortnight” was. She said “What do you say?” I’m like…every other week? It’s fun having an Australian friend—she was drinking wine and winding down, I was drinking coffee and winding up.
I noticed freckles on faces, stars in the sky, sparkles in eyes and extra warm hugs this week. I was in it, you know?
All in all, it was a pretty happy week. How was yours? What made you happy this week?

So happy to see you getting back to you! Have a great weekend!
Way to go Olivia!!! She is amazing. Glad you are smiling again! You have a lovely smile and need to use it more often š Good luck with finding a deal for cards! I lucked out and got 10 free and then paid $15 for a groupon and got all of the rest of my cards that way. Can’t really beat that price unless I got them all free! I’ll let you know if I hear of any good deals!
I love that new Olivia book! She – and you – and your Olivia – are the best!
I’m glad you’re feeling better. Yay for new books and chats with friends. Always great Picker-Uppers.
Yay!!! Sounds like a good day.
A good WEEK. I meant.
