I Think I Need a Win

I think I need a win.

Sometimes I come to the end of a long couple of weeks (or day), and think to myself “I need a win… even if it’s just a small win”. 

I find myself thinking this when things just haven’t gone according to plan for awhile.

I’m not talking about things going horribly haywire. We’re blessed with a boring life, and let’s be honest life is good. But sometimes things are just a little bit off: work is busy, kids get sick, you’re caught in the rain without an umbrella, daylight savings happens, the weather changes from summer to winter in 12 hours, dinner is blah, etc.

You know what I mean, we all have those days and weeks when things are just a touch off.

We’re coming to what I hope is the final stretch of one of those periods.

My brain is a little bit fried (as it always is at this point in the semester), and I think a small win is in order.

So I’m looking for it.

This win can be as simple as finding a new favorite song, coconut cookies, free food, grapes on sale, sleeping in past 7am, or everyone eating dinner without complaining.

However small this victory is, I’m on the hunt for it… it’s going to happen. And when it does, you can bet I’m going to do a happy dance.

Cause let’s be honest, it’s the little wins that get us through the rough days.
