Success!

I am very bad for giving myself credit for what I accomplish in my life. Raising my 2 kids is definetly rewarding and I love every minute of it. Sometimes I think I should be getting back in the workforce, and I am going to. But just b/c I am not in the workforce does not mean that I am not just as accomplished by staying at home.

So today, I am going to give myself some credit..and I am going to start to do this once a month for the whole year. Seeing as 4 months have passed, I am going to stated what I have accomplished for the past 4 months..but normally it will be for just the month prior. Here goes.....

--joined curves and got on the top ten losers list! (#7)
--painted all of my window sills and ordered new faux wood blinds.
-- planted seeds to start my garden with
--started setting up my pond
-- got a good start in the backyard landscaping
-- stained my little patio
--with Jared's help, painted and put up new doors and trim(still not finished)
--handled Paige's pneumonia with absolute grace. I definetly believe, kids learn to be troopers when they are sick by the example you set for them.
--kept up (most of the time) with the laundry
--decided to be a better friend to all my friends
--got our new whirlpool tub, although not installed, I feel accomplished that we have it!
--organized my computer desk
--sent out wedding invitations
--organized a bunch of other wedding stuff (caterer, dj, etc)
--Subscribed to Canadian Gardening and Today's Parent magazines! And yes I am VERY proud of this, I love being inspired in gardening and parenting by other people's stories.
--Got information about becoming a Tupperware consultant , as well as an Epicure Selections consultant.
--Celebrated Dom's THIRD birthday party and Jared's 24th!
--colored both my sister's hair, and they looked mighty fine!
--applied at a couple salons
--cleaned my basement
--organized all the decorations and centerpieces for the wedding
--apologized to someone that I definetly needed to.

See, 4 mths is WAY too long to catch up on.. It will be better with one month.. b/c I could keep going and going, it feels good to state what I feel that I've accomplished.

Well Kylen is here to play for a bit, so I better go..The tupperware lady is going to be here around 10 to introduce me to everything! Exciting!
