DAY 18 - Tuesday, October 11, 2016: Today's Good Things, But No Anxiety Win

1. This morning, on the way to dropping the kids off at the babysitter's we were listening to their kids' CD (at Carter's request). Carter was singing along to "Five Little Monkeys". His little voice singing away made me happy. I love how sweet our boy is.

2. At work today, I completed what was left of the writing I had to do for the alumni magazine at the University where I work. I really loved the articles. There's something magical about the process of writing. It's addicting really. There are few feelings better than producing something you love. Also, it feels SO FREAKING GOOD to be done the articles. More work will come as we prepare to publish, but it's a huge weight off that my big part in the publication is done.

3. Tonight, I asked Jeff, "why do you love me?" We play this game often. He gives me his typical list: I'm sexy, I'm smart, I'm a good mom, blah, blah, blah (tricked him right good, huh?!) and then tonight adds, "and you laugh uncontrollably at things that are only sort of funny." That made me laugh. Hurmph. Laughing at that probably didn't help my case.

4. Eating veggie tempura at supper from Wasabi. YUM.

I seriously can't think of an anxiety win today. I felt anxious today. As Jeff's week out of the country approaches, I feel myself getting more and more nervous. I don't think I've been bad or anything -- in terms of engaging in OCD behaviours, but I just can't think of a battle I won today.
