Some days, I can easily let things go. Other days, I brew.
Unfortunately - for some reason - this week I am brewing and stewing and letting something get to me (that likely shouldn't).
So, for Christmas, I got a "book of AWESOME." It's a really cool book that has the "positive" attitude that I try to maintain. As an extra bonus, it seems like it should be a highly bloggable book. On a day like today, it seems appropriate to pull it out since I need a pick-me-up.
So.... I share with you my first (of many? time will tell..) glimpse of the "AWESOME" book. After the book excerpt... I'll share a personal "awesome" for the day.
From the book: the first page I flipped to: Giving babies high-fives. They never let you down, and they never "psych" you out.
From my day: Easy-breezy bedtimes. I tell Kiddo it's bedtime, and he gets up to head to his room (only turning back, at my request, to give out goodnight hugs and kisses). Then a book, and no tears, and bedtime is done. Yep, AWESOME.
Love: Sweets. Of any kind. But today, pumpkin pie with whipped cream and chocolate/caramel popcorn come to mind.
Hope: I can just "let it go" (that is, the thing I am stewing about...)
Do: Get some shopping in over the next few days (or go crazy... however, I choose shopping!)
