DAY 23 - Sunday, October 16, 2016: Today's Good Things & Anxiety Win

Well, we made it through our first day Dadless. I had a good day with my mini men. Here are our highlights:

1. The boys played so well together and were such happy, well-behaved good, little guys. As a parent, you appreciate those days like no other. #IKnowYallFeelMe

2. When Gray napped this afternoon, I laid on the couch and "rested" my eyes, while Carter sat in the crook of my legs and played a game on my tablet. It was nice to have him right there, cuddled under the blanket with me. #MySweetBoy

3. Tonight we went for supper with my parents, and brother/Uncle Joel and sister (in-law)/Auntie Sarah and the food was delish and the boys were pretty good. Thank god, though, for my Dad and Joel, who were the ones who kept the boys occupied and ran around with them basically the entire time. It was nice to not have to cook anything and not have a kitchen and dining room to clean up.

And those were three of my highlights. It was really nice just hiding out in the house today, with my boys, staying warm from the cold weather.

I feel like these posts are so boring lately -- so un-full of personality. I feel like I'm either really sappy or really sassy. Sometimes, I do manage to merge the two in the same post, but lately I'm missing a lot of my sass. It is what it is. I can't force it. People, I can't possibly be funny all the time!

My anxiety win today:
These, too -- I don't know that I should keep putting these on here. They are kind of "boring" sometimes, especially because they will start to get repetitive. Either way, I'll list today's. At supper tonight, we were at a buffet and I HATE touching all of the same scoops and spoons that hundreds of people before me touched and then going to my table, picking up a spring roll with my hands, and eating. I also JUST realized as I was writing this, that I opened the door to the restaurant with my hand and then didn't wash with actual soap and water before eating. Eeeeee! That makes me both excited and proud and totally horrified. I did use hand sanitizer at one point, but I don't feel that that's good enough (I don't 100% trust it to be honest) and always prefer to actually wash my hands with soap and water, so it still definitely feels like a win. I can't determine if it's a win though or if it's just plain stupid of me. So there we are. #winningIthink
