#5JoysFriday @DebinHawaii this has become my favorite part of Friday, looking back at the little good things from the week ☺️
1. Watching the birds mingle and chirp at our bird feeders 🐦
2. Cat snuggles. The double, the better 😻😻
3. Babysitting my niece at bedtime for the first time (she only had a mini meltdown missing mom 🫠😅💕)
4. Hanging out with my sister's dogs 🐶🐶
5. Finally watching the Eras tour 🎶
💛 La Gata, another pet that provides me joy.
💛 My classes finished state testing this week.
💛 Our JH took a field trip to see a college performance of The Percy Jackson Musical, and a former student had a role as the Minotaur & member of the ensemble.
💛 I hire a high school student who does a great job regularly mowing my yard so I don‘t have to.
💛 One evening this week I enjoyed some lovely hammock time.

My five joys this week:
1. Oakley bear 😻 snuggles to help recover after minor surgery
2. Virtual bookclub discussion with my highschool friends 📖🐈
3. Dancing lessons with my guy 💃🏼
4. Discovering Happy Color - my new favorite audiobook activity 🎨🎧
5. Hitting up so many bookstores for the Greater Charlotte Bookcrawl 📚
It‘s been a bit of a rough week, so I‘m purposefully taking this opportunity to focus on some positives.
💛 It rained yesterday, and now everything is beautifully green.
💛 We finished our first week of state testing & all students were present each day.
💛 My 6th graders were completely engaged in our math activity today.
💛 This beagle makes me happy every single day.
💛 Tonight I‘m having pizza & drinks with great friends.

Happy Wednesday🥰
🌸 It‘s just a great time for Simple Joys...
🌼 as a curious but quiet introspective person who‘s obsessed with books??
🌺 when my 2 youngest daughters were an infant and a preschooler, neither one slept through the night for years—serious sleep deficit
