I notice I post here more when I’m stressed than when I’m in a good mood

Thought I’d take a minute to do an update on some of those stressed-out posts:
🥳 I got that albatross of a paper and class finally done. Got an A in the class. 😎. In general, so far school is going well.

🎉 My Kiddo who has ADHD and anxiety is adapting to middle school well. It’s great to see their self-esteem bouncing back after a rough couple of years. They’ve found some friends. They’re steadily getting the hang of the schoolwork. They like the class rotation, their teachers and they’re getting good marks. They even joined a club 💜

💜 Living together for the first time as a couple and as a family has all come together pretty naturally. It’s just kind of wholesome, warm, happy atmosphere. I love that when John gets here from work he’s home and we’re not doing this balancing act anymore of maintaining two separate lives. We’re a good team 💜. I see Kiddo happy in a way I’ve always wanted for them.

🐈‍⬛ 🐕 All things considered, my dog and his cats are getting used to each other. One kittycat is particularly patient when my dog tries to cover her in drool-y kisses. The other kittycat despises GSD, but at least he is learning GSD won’t eat him 😅🤷🏻‍♀️
