Celebrate the Small Things (1)



Today I'm enjoying in with yet another meme (I know, I know, I'm an addict). Celebrate the Small Things is a new meme hosted by Scribblings of an Aspiring Author. It takes place every Friday and the idea is to celebrate something you have achieved or done that week. It doesn't have to be writing or reading about it-it can be about anything positive aspect of your life, however small or mundane. Then we can hop over to the other blogs on the linky and offer them some encouragement and a virtual pat on the back. I think this will be fun, and learning to appreciate the little victories in life definitely makes you feel better. So let's give it a go.



This week I'm pleased with myself for:

  • Managing to post to my blog a few times
  • Sticking to my new Zumba class routine
  • Investigating a few new career opportunities
  • Walking 30 mins into work most days
  • Helping my Dad set up his new phone
  • Eating a healthy lunch at work each day
What small achievements would you like to celebrate?

  1. Sounds like you've had a good week. Congratulations on all your small things. Someone in my zumba class clocked up 4,000 steps on her pedometer in an hour's class recently - keep dancing!

    1. It's a type of dance/fitness class that includes moves from salsa, samba, merengue, mambo and belly dancing as well as others. It's quite energetic and there's a lot of jiggling and rolling your hips involved!

  8. Helping to set a parent's cell phone can be a major accomplishment! Good stuff.

    1. Yeah I thought it would take longer but I surprised myself. Dad is totally in awe of the phone, his first touch screen smart phone :)
