little things that go a long way

What nice little things have happened to you lately? You know, the kind of stuff you wouldn't write home about, but that make your day better.

I just got an email from a colleague that said "Wow, you're awesome!" in reference to a small, quick thing I did. After dragging myself through another thankless day at work, it really cheered me up to see that email.

J memorized my coffee order and has surprised me with coffee a few times lately. The other night she got In N Out for dinner and she got me animal style fries even though I's said regular fries, I guess she saw the indecision when I asked for regular.

Wow, I sound like a pig... Food does make me happy though.

One of the docs at work told me that I was awesome. Kinda helped since the rest of my day was craptastic.

Travis is bringing me home a Blizzard right now. :-)

I have A LOT of anxiety about school and have been super stressed lately with that and my field placement (which I love) so she keeps leaving me little notes and gets me cards telling me how proud of me she is and how confidents she is in me.

A co-worker really advocated for me to keep my job/get the n merged position. She is someone whose opinion matters dearly to me so her actions were very heartwarming.

I had a package waiting for me when I got home from work yesterday, it was a glass jar hand-etched with a flower and filled with chocolate hugs and kisses from a friend in PA along with a really sweet card. It was part of a Secret Sister gift exchange, but I didn't know who it was going to be from or when I would get it, obviously. I've been really stressed out and having kind of a rough go of things (almost all work-related, home life is good just busy), so it was so awesome and just a perfect start to my weekend. It really cheered me up.

A had to work all weekend long, it's just bat shit crazy there right now and she's been putting in 10-12 hour days for over a week straight. Last night she called me out of the blue from work. She said she needed a break and she'd walked outside to see the sun setting over the mountains and wanted to hear my voice. We chatted, she vented a bit about work, and I was so glad we got to talk. It was the perfect end to my weekend.

I was feeling really upset/guilty about trying to accommodate my vegan diet, and C and her friend's sorta pickiness while we were trying to figure out where to eating out together this weekend. C could tell I was struggling with it and when I explained she was so sweet and reassuring.
