![]() Tonight is my final night in a hotel for my work conference. I've relished these nights off of parenting - particularly after 10 days of solo parenting. I even lucked in to staying a hotel with decently firm mattresses. My back is a fan of the support. Here's what else was good this week:

![]() Currently, I am sitting in a big comfy chair, by a fire, watching some friends play the weirdest video game I've ever seen. I'm only able to do this because my husband, family, and friends handled my not so elegant melt down this morning after 10 days of solo parenting and abrupt, unexpected plan changes. You know you have a good support system when so many people rush to help (some from several states away). Thank you! Here are the other things that helped me get through the week:
![]() After almost a week of solo parenting, I expected to be more tired. The kiddo even had a 1:30AM wake up this week! Somehow, I'm doing okay. My brain is all scattershot but it could have been worse. I'll take it! Here's what else was good this week:
![]() I keep a candy bowl on my desk. It's there for anyone who needs a little sweet treat. I've noticed that the supply has been dwindling faster than my sole intake. I'm not sure who is having nibbles, but I'm glad they are. It makes me happy to know that others are getting enjoyment out of something so simple. Here's what else made me happy this week:
![]() My colleagues and I had a grand time on our internal chat this week. The conversation was witty and hilarious. One bit included someone sharing an image of rubber duckies with evil mustaches. What did this have to do with work? Not a thing! But that's what made it fun. I work with a great bunch of people. Here's what made me happy this week.
![]() The husband has been away for work this week. He just texted that he was able to change to an earlier flight home and will be back for kiddo's dinner and bedtime. She's going to be so happy to see him! (I am also going to be happy to see him, obviously.) Here's what else made me smile this week:
![]() I just finished a packet of cream cheese and chive sandwich crackers. I know the filling is entirely fake, processed cheese but I don't care. I love the salty crunch. They make a great desk snack. Here's what else made me smile this week:
![]() Our kiddo's daycare is closed today. Right now, I am forever grateful that she loves watching Daniel Tiger. This is a rare day with no screen time limits because it means I can actually get some work done. She's happy, I'm productive. That's what matters. Here's what was good this week:
![]() We've got some cucumber slices in the fridge that need to be eaten. I'm very much looking forward to breaking out some dip and enjoying them as an afternoon snack in a few minutes. Here's what else made me happy this week:
![]() When I woke up, it was gray and raining. Gradually, the sun has overtaken the day. While it may be chilly and breezy out, the sky is a brilliant blue with not a cloud in sight. Not bad for a winter day. Here's what was good in my week.
