The blossom in the front garden is out and looks really beautiful.
The ironing pile has been tackled and waiting to be put away.
Ah, a lovely cup of tea. Small pleasures.

Awww sorry to hear that OP, one positive thing would be that nothing negative happened today. All in the normal course of life for me

My daughter and I stood outside and she said I love days like this. It's not too cold or too hot , its not windy, it's just still and calm. Listen to the birds singing. They love it too.

Today I'm going to watch the great British sewing bee with a family sized pack of peanut M&Ms.

My life is uneventful Grin

Last night I went to help my parents out with their paperwork. I managed to resolve a lot and discovered I have about £5k in shares that they forgot to tell me about :)

I collected tickets for a comedy/drama at our local theatre tonight. DD is doing GCSE's this year and stressed, so I'm taking her along and we're going to forget our worries for a few hours Grin
Lovely thread x

Our lovely new rescue dog met six unfamiliar dogs on our walk this morning (four of them all in one go) and was lovely and friendly and relaxed with them all. He's an absolute joy to walk and getting out in the mornings is doing my physical and mental health the world of good.

Was a very challenging day yesterday and today,but despite today's issues I spent some time really enjoying my drive home in the good weather and stopped for an excursion into woods with my ddogs, and stopped to 'talk' to Indian runner duck, goats, sheep, and a couple of others ddogs.
Only one ddog had a quick 'shout' at one of the goats who tried to head butt! It was all good fun and an absorbing digression from the day.

Absolutely nothing, this whole entire day has been a sac of shite, like most stuff in my life right now and most of it cause by "d"p. I am currently lying in the bath crying.

@Moonflower12 - get a lid on that tank! Don't be that teacher who is running around on a Monday morning trying to catch frogs from all over the classroom Grin

@EastMidsGPs

I have a dd who was born without a hand. I know people that have been in the same position as your dh that a few years down the line are doing everything and more they were doing before.
If he's interested in sports have a look at Limbpower and the people there are amazing. Even if he only goes to watch this year (it's coming up shortly) it's very inspirational.

I heard you drogosnextwife. Not much I can say but wanted to let you know someone is listening and I hope you can find a way forward to something better.

My daughter performed on stage, which makes her very scared, but she did it and I'm proud of her. And I was able to tell a new member of staff that she's doing a very good job, which made her smile a lot.

I signed up for a 10k.
Had my nails done for my niece’s wedding tomorrow.
Oldest DS is home for said wedding, with his lovely gf, and I’ve had a really nice dinner with them and my younger DS and my DP, all laughing around the table.

A good day Smile

Ooh, I’ve thought of some more!

I forgot to bring any lunch to work, so a colleague made me beans on toast and washed up for me afterwards. I thought that was so kind.

This is a lovely thread.

EastMidsGPs I'm so pleased for you and your DH. Not quite the same, but my dad had a bad fall in January and broke 4 vertebrae (no cord damage, miraculously). It's really taken it's toll and I can't imagine ever seeing him pottering about independently again at the moment, so reading about someone else moving on from an (arguably worse) trauma is encouraging.

Otherwise...had a month's food shopping delivered so can avoid the supermarket for the next few weeks, lots of cat cuddles and made a cracking chicken korma for dinner.
