I decided to walk to work this morning. I met a mother walking with her toddler who randomly started hugging my leg and kept saying pretty to me. Her mother told me that normally she cries when strangers talk to her. Made me smile all day

My youngest daughter came back from a long trip yesterday and my son came back from this two week work thing, so last night I had an unexpected dinner and a chat with the two of them. Right now I am planning a dinner with all three my kids for the weekend. My heart is as full as can be and I am almost crying from happiness.

"Our" hedgehog has also been showing off her hoglets and I've spotted bats again for the first time in about 5 years.

So refreshing to see a positive thread. We've had our mortgage offer though today for our dream house. Chuffed.

Amazing news x

About 4:00 this afternoon, we realised that the main sewage drain that runs down our (newly laid) drive was over flowing. We called the Water board to be told they'd be here within three days. The smell was awful, and we had plans for the weekend but we're told they work weekends, and could arrive up to 10:00pm, so we were thinking of other options that wouldn't scupper our plans.

Yay 😁😁😁. They've arrived sorted it, and gone. Result.

My very speech delayed son got a glowing report from his nursery today about how his language is coming along so well and at bedtime tonight he put his arms around my husband and went ‘I love you Daddy’. He’s never said I love you before 😭😭❤️❤️❤️ my heart!!

I've been invited to exhibit my art work in a local community gallery in November 😊

A young girl I work with had a massive and sudden breakthrough with maths. When she smiled because she understood it, it was like the sun coming out after a storm 🤗

I had my dry socket treated today and it's the first time I haven't been in pain for a week.

Toothache is the worst! Happy you got it sorted!

I ordered a dress not in my usual style and it fits so well and is so flattering compared to anything else I own it looks like it was tailored for me

The hedgehog that visits our garden brought her babies along last night. You can't make the world right, but you can cultivate your own garden.

Love this! We have a hedgehog visitor too but no babies, yet anyway :)

I have had very bad news today too and also a headache as a result of the shock, but DH had has a lovely, surprise bottle of champagne delivered.

Hope you are ok. My good news is the carpet we ordered and paid for last week was out of stock as of this week but the guy in the store offered us another nicer one at no additional cost despite it being almost double the cost of the original one which was in the sale, yayy win!

It took a very little time for a cat-lover to fight back with a "Dogs Are Everywhere" thread. That's all I have because my day's been a nightmare, butu I didn't want to read and run, and also thought I'd highlight that little things can help. :)
