So yesterday was not a great day....If you read my post from yesterday then you will know that I had a pretty emotional day! I could not seem to hold it together yesterday...this Super Woman's cape was not flying in the wind, it was wrapped around her like a security blanket! LOL
Now today I decided was going to be a better day....so I got out of bed, put my big girl panties on, and decided "Let's Do This!" I began cleaning and hanging pictures....making this house a home! The kids seem to be fairing well with this whole situation so I should too!
After cleaning I made a list of items I needed from the store, and manned with my trusty map app on my phone, the boys and I set out for a drive. I got slightly lost on my first attempt in the direction I wanted to go, but I realized my mistake before I had gone too far and I was able to correct my mistake. I didn't get flustered...I kept my cool! Then once we were close to our destination, we once again realized we weren't exactly where we needed to be. I could see the store I wanted to go to but I was not on the right road. Yes, I was having all of these troubles even with the map app, but that is ok. I was navigating on my own and with the app. We made it to the store and picked up the item that Clint needed. Then it was time to head home. I called Clint and we decided to meet at one of the many malls here in Abu Dhabi for dinner, so instead of going home, I now needed to find my way to the mall. Plugged the destination into the app and then set off.... The boys and I thought at first that the app had gone crazy...we thought we were about to do some off road driving, but I ignored the apps direction, made it recalculate, and we pressed on! We successfully made it to the mall and then I successfully made it home after dinner!
So as the title says...take successes any way you can! No matter how small they may be, they are still to be considered a success! At least that is how I look at it! Until next time my friends....
