Rockin in Small Ways

July 22nd, 2010 · 6 Comments · Small Successes

It’s been a while since I’ve done a Small Successes post, though not for lack of thinking of those moments in my life when I have a tiny triumph. Over the last two weeks, though, almost everything has been small (or huge). Sometimes a little does of Small Successes makes it all come into focus…

1. No washer. Since the middle of last week. And look…not only am I still alive, but the back-up plan has been working just fine. (I also have not been mentioning it or complaining. Because…the decision process may take a bit longer. And I will live.)

2. I asked for feedback on a huge project this week. Not only will it help me make my project waaaay better than it was to begin with, I swallowed that nugget of pride that made me hesitate. And you know what? The feedback was oh-so charitable and oh-so insightful. I’m better for it.

3. We’ve had non-takeout dinner every night this week so far. (Granted, I didn’t have to cook one of those nights, because of the way the laundry worked out, but still. I claim this as a success.)

Don’t forget to check out the Small Successes post over at Faith & Family Live today.

    When my washer broke down, I did have to tell God, when I said I never wanted to do laundry again, this isn’t what I meant.

    Love my Bosch
