Pause frequently today and take some time to reflect.

Friendships
Warm a heart today
CAREGIVER NOTE:
Allow space. Some days they just need the room to process whatever it is that is going on inside. It may not be easy to watch, but as long as they are safe let the processing move forward. And don’t forget to BREATHE!
Day 30 – closing out the month
Be the difference in someone’s day!
Day 29 – find the switch
Share a little “light” with a friend today.
CAREGIVER NOTE:
Once again it was a “Find something good in every day” kind of day. Things can derail quickly at times. What is going well — have them put a name to it if they can. As a caregiver you need to do the same – and vocalize it. Shifting the dynamics in the moment can put a different spin on the entire direction things were headed and where the day goes from that moment. Repeat as needed.
Day 28
Cherish friendships….
Day 27
Gratitude is a practice – make it a priority.
Day 26
…learning to enjoy today has benefits: offering moments of happiness now and good memories for the future.
CAREGIVER NOTES:
Unsettled — for a myriad of reasons yesterday. Carried that unsettling through the night. Hoping for a better day today and maybe he’ll find a smile or two when he’s showered, shaved and goes for a haircut later this morning.
Day 25
Be your unique YOU!
Day 24 – Another day of Thanksgiving
Let every day be a day of gratitude and greatitude.
CAREGIVER NOTE:
Be grateful for each day…. don’t lose sight of who they really are.
Day 23
Gratitude infuses hope for tomorrow
Greatitudes
