Life is pretty bleak at the moment. I’ve been trying to notice the good stuff in amongst the news, keeping an eye out for the bright things during my day no matter how minor, in an effort to not get dragged down into a never ending fog of how bloody hard things are.

I have got a second job early morning cleaning and whilst it is a pain in the bum, it has relieved some of my money worries and part of the weight on my shoulders has been lifted.

I have managed to do a good chunk of pre-Christmas clean and tidy of the house.

My children have had really good school reports recently.

Anyone else want to share their gems of positivity? Absolutely not a braggy or “don’t bloody whinge everyone” post because I know how unendingly negative the world seems at the moment, (plus things above aren’t really worth bragging about are they!) but thought it would be nice to have a post about good things. It will be nice to see other peoples small wins.

Ok not life changing but....

The Portuguese cafe near my place makes the most gorgeous home made soup! Well, I have only tried the veggie ones as I do not eat meat. The first time I had it it was mainly broccoli and cabbage. A lovely green color. I nearly did not order it thinking it would be like the diced veg canned monstrosity in the shops. Nope. it was lush!

The second time it was a golden colour and had chunks of potato, sliced carrot and cabbage and some beans. Mmmmm!

I shall be back from work by lunchtime so will check out if they still have it today.

If I can still whinge - I had my purse stolen on 19th November and am still waiting for a bank card!!!
