Celebrate The Small Things -- June 12


It's Friday and I'm Celebrating The Small Things!  The brainchild of ViklitCelebrate The Small Things is a weekly celebration where some bloggers have decided to post about something worth celebrating...no matter how big or small it is.  I am thrilled to co-host this wonderful bloghop!


This week I'm celebrating:
  • I made dinner all by myself on Tuesday!  This is a huge big deal considering I haven't really had the energy or strength to do this in many months!  Woot!  On the menu was chicken cutlets, Rice-A-Roni, and some steamed broccoli (it was in a microwaveable bag...so a bit of a cheat, but who cares?!)
  • Got some new makeup, which always makes me a bit cheery
  • My daughter had her first tournament of the season last weekend, and her shoulder did well!  We used this tape that was recommended by the physical therapist, and she said it helped!


This will be my last Friday as co-host.  I've been feeling a bit disconnected from blogging lately, and think it's best to take a break.  I've had a wonderful time helping out, and still plan on celebrating as much as I can.  I hope to see you all around!


What are you celebrating?

  1. Congrats on the new makeup! I'm always happy to get new makeup, too! And that KT tape is awesome! I used to use it on my bad knee after someone recommended it to me. He said the knee brace wasn't helping the muscles around my knee get stronger. It was, in fact, making them weaker and therefore not helping my knee. The KT tape supported the right areas while allowing my muscles to get back to normal. With that and exercise, I don't even need it anymore.

    Thanks for co-hosting for as long as you did. Have a great weekend!

  4. I hope the break does you good. Sometimes we have to step away from extra things to take care of ourselves. I totally get what you're saying. This time 2-years ago I was recovering from acute diverticulitis (following surgery), which wiped me out in a very big way, so I understand how good it feels to do a simple chore. So, hurray for you! Have an amazing summer!

  13. I love the colour of the tape 'rage red'. It' can't just be red, it has to be 'rage red'. Sounds like there's plenty to celebrate in your life. I'm happy for you.
