    31 Days of Happy!

    For the next 31 days I am inviting everyone to join me in being positive and posting about it in the positive thread. Even the smallest thing from your day. Maybe post it at the end of the day, so you can look back and see what all happened that was good!

    I am doing this personally to see if my outlook can change. I have had a rough couple of months and was really loosing my love for my job. I think by getting all the positive out and written about will help me tremendously. I'm also going to try and not post anything negative for that entire month!

    Hope you'll join me and I'll see you over in the positive thread!
    Each day is a fresh start
    Never look back on regrets
    Live life to the fullest
    We only get one shot at this!!

    Im on it!!! I think that this is great.....the good must out-way the bad, or we will continue to focus on those things that are negative.

    I just posted a positive thread about my exciting news about DCB and his excellent grades.....

    I'm so on board with you about finding the love in our jobs again....

      31 Days of Happy!

      Okay, as Country Mom asked...I am jumping in on the Positive thread for 31 days - fingers crossed it will help to lift all our spirits.

      Today, I had a very easy day with only 2 children and my DH was home all day to help. He also 'Smoked 45lbs of pulled pork for all our upcoming pot lucks --- really saves me so much time thinking of what to make and preparing it all. Also, I have been really sick with my pregnancy so this is a huge help.

            By request, and since I need a little positivity...

            I had a GREAT interview yesterday, I loved the child and the Mom and I really hope that it works out!

                Neat idea! I'm game.

                I almost think we should make it it's own sticky thread: 31 Days of Happy or something like that. Michael? What do you think? Can we? Can we?
                Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!

                  I totally backed off of dcb, 5 who is a super picky eater. He would often not touch a single item on his lunch plate.

                  Over the past few weeks with the encouragement of his friends, he is trying everything and liking new things and eating healthy foods.

                  I'm so very pleased and so is his mama.

                    My 4 yo has not watched one minute of tv today.

                    We did some cutting work this morning, discussed transportation some more, did a couple of worksheets, took a long scooter ride, and he's been playing with his pumpkin pie spice playdough for hours.

                      Last minute change of napping plans (was going home for nap but needed to stay here instead) for a 2 year old and she didn't complain at all (she usually does)!

                        My last dcb was picked up at 4:30 (instead of 4:45), so I was able to get everything put away, the floors vacuumed, last dishes done, etc., before 5:00. It's amazing what a mere 15 minutes does to lengthen my evenings .

                        Oh, and I had a house full today and they all behaved wonderfully and played nicely all day.

                          Actually I was thinking the same thing, PLEASE Michael-

                          I was actually thinking of a different theme we could do each month!!!!

                          OK with these kids sleeping I have way to much brain time to think-::

                            I only had 3 kids today. Everyone was good. The dcb that I am transitioning from a pack n play to a cot did really well today (this is the 3rd day) and I got an awsome text from a dcd today : "We could not ask for a better sitter for "K" than we have in you. I am so glad we made the switch over to you (from another provider) he has improved with communication n learning by leaps and bounds".....thats a good text to get
