Three positive things, day twenty-one

So, Tuesday.

The first positive thing was an accident that could have been nasty. While he was helping to put away the dishes from the dishwasher, our eldest stacked up several glass storage containers inside of each other. While he was lifting a stack of them up into the cupboard, they slipped out of his hands and landed on top of another large one that was on the counter, smashing it and throwing chunks of glass all over the kitchen. We shooed the kids out of the kitchen, locked the cats in various rooms, and spent ages cleaning it all up. I had to stop the cleanup efforts after a while because of a call for work, so my #awesomewife had to continue working on it. So, in the end we've lost almost of our glass storage dishes. The good part of all that? There wasn't a scratch on our eldest, even though he was right in front of the glass explosion, and nobody else was injured. Phew!

The second positive thing was realizing just how much of an awesome job our kids have been doing to keep the house clean. They've taken on (given) a number of chores each week, and as a result the house has been looking better than ever.

The third positive thing was resolving a rather problematic bug in a project at work - it took almost all day, but a bug that has been bothering us on-and-off for about two weeks is finally fixed. Phew, again!
