this week was good because...

 ...we survived the first couple of exhausting, delightful weeks with our adorable puppy.

...I received encouraging, supportive feedback from my supervisor during my end-of-year review.

...a friend offered caring, loving and necessary words in the midst of a difficult moment.

...I am officially on winter break for two weeks.

...of thoughtful, engaging conversation with colleagues about authenticity in the workplace.

What made your week good?
