Sometimes, life gets a little overwhelming. This isn't to say that it's bad or things are going wrong, just that sometimes there's a lot that seems to be pressing. So, sometimes, I have to make lists to make my head go on straight(er). Such as this list of accomplishments to make me feel better.

Things I am proud of:

• Keeping up on the dishes and keeping the kitchen wiped down/floors clean
• Keeping up on the laundry
• Making dinner most nights
• Going to work every day, even when I don't feel super great
• Cleaning out the fridge and wiping it down
• Cleaning the microwave
• Cleaning the windows
• Signing up for and attending yoga classes
• Finishing a box of spinach before it went bad

Also, side note: I am not confident the people who lived here prior to us did much cleaning... The grimy places that I have been cleaning since we moved in have had multiple years of grime underneath it. So, at least I'm doing better than that.

Happy January!
