Just Good Things # 19

If my kid was writing this post, I bet the two things on her list would be "snow" and "screen time." She's gotten an abundant amount of both this week.

Normally, we try to limit the kiddo to screen time for an hour or two on weekend days. With needing to quarantine AND work, those rules went out the widow. So, she's watched The Secret Life of Pets and The Secret Life of Pets 2 basically on repeat all week.

You know what - it's fine. She's happy and we can actually do our jobs.

Here's what was good in my week:
  • ​We are unfortunate to have a small stockpile of COVID rapid tests which has made keeping an eye on our quarantine easier.
  • It snowed twice this week. The first storm was rough for our area, but our neighborhood got the pretty snow. The kind that sticks to trees and makes everything look like it's covered in powdered sugar.
  • Quarantine meant that our kiddo got to actually experience her first real snow. We took a brief trip to the park where she walked around, went down the slide, and built (rather, destroyed) a small snowman with her dad.
  • All day online professional development meant I got to listen in to work while playing Legos with my kiddo.
  • Hot showers on cold days.
  • Having a partner in parenting who does his best to balance out hard weeks like this.
  • The smell of freshly baked blueberry muffins.
  • Writing and sending thank you letters.
  • A brand new bullet journal. The pages are so flat and crisp.
  • The new website I designed for work went live and it looks awesome.
