Little nuggets of joy

In these crappy times it is good to remember the positive things in life when you can. They can be small and seemingly insignificant, but they really can help.
Mine are a kiss from my lovely dog and a large vodka later 😉

Feel free to keep the list going.

I've just made the perfect cup of tea - really hot, really strong, in my favourite mug. I feel invincible now!

Now I have just had a perfect cup of tea too! I nipped out to the garage while it was brewing then got distracted digging up some bulbs coming through the lawn so thought I might have to write it off, but it was perfect. Am going to try and recreate another one now!

Every time I kiss my baby on the cheek he does the biggest smile.

When I walk down the stairs in the morning Ddog walks next to me and holds my hand. He's a very strange (but wonderful) boy.

My cat has settled down on my lap for a cuddle and is now fast asleep. He very rarely stays this long so it's a real honour when he does 🥰

WindyAtthebeach. Your puppy is adorable.❤️

Posted this on another thread but though it's a little thing it made my day.

Today I had to get a few bits from Tesco and popped into a charity shop. I got dvds of all 9 series of As Time Goes By plus the reunion specials. Series 1 and 2 of Being Human. Still Game series 6(I own 1-5), One Foot In The Grave series 3(I own 1 and 2). and the film My Fair Lady all for just £3.

The tuna & cheese toastie I just bought from Frankie's Toasties, was absolutely delicious - gave me immense joy

Some lovely and simple nuggets of joy. I’ve also been enjoying watching some of my favourite TV. Currently watching Star Trek DS9.

Feeling my baby wriggling in my belly 🥰

Lovely beach ride on Heather this morning, followed by cuddling some week old lambs at our livery yard. Then an evening curled up reading with the cat purring away on my knee.

Today's was that my mum figured out Skype so we could all video chat!

sunshineandshowers21 · 19/03/2020 23:44

mine was my 12 year old doing bedtime tonight for his little brother and sister so that i could have a long hot soak in the bath. i heard him over the baby monitor reading them a story then giving them both a kiss and telling them he loved them. then i got out the bath and he’d put my pyjamas on the radiator to warm and made me a cuppa. after a rough day it brought tears to my eyes.

We have made a family plan to all be home for 6pm tomorrow to listen to a storyteller from a festival we saw last summer doing an online story. I have got hot choc for the occasion and am really looking forwards to it.

DeRigueurMortis · 20/03/2020 02:10

This made me chuckle.

@sunshineandshowers21 your son sounds like a wonderful little guy..
you must be so proud of him.

My nugget is being off work with my DS and DD and being able to enjoy the hugs without rushing around and looking at a clock..

TeaAndDarkToast · 20/03/2020 02:29

the cat and a good cuppa

I got free parking by a lovely lady at our multi story car park at work.

Small victory in my parking war

DinosApple · 20/03/2020 05:24

As I'm awake early I'm going to have a cup of tea, watch the sunrise and listen to the birds.

I've had a flu like virus for the last week and finally feel a bit better too.

That is so sweet.

blindmusicmum · 20/03/2020 06:22

Birds out side our window and a nice suny day.

OhWhatFuckeryIsThisNow · 20/03/2020 06:55

Walking the dog yesterday on an empty field in the sunshine. Not a soul in sight, so let rip with show tunes, loudly and probably out of tune. Good for the soul.
