One Positive Thing About Today

Start the week off right! My positive is that I am still managing to resist the chocolate stash! I WILL wait until Easter! 🤣 Although those pesky mini eggs are calling pretty loudly……..

The sun is shining, that improves my mood no end.

My dentist appointment went well.

Just packing to go off and stay in a spa hotel with my husband and for 2 nights while the kids are at my in-laws! Best Monday of the year so far!

I really enjoyed Greek yogurt with strawberries and blackberries for breakfast this morning!

Managed to pursued dc to take him for a fresh haircut. Our appointment is at 12:40. Fingers crossed it goes well for him and he doesn’t hate it…

Today I was up at the crack of dawn to deal with my rubbish on bin day. This time I managed to beat the unknown bastard person who keeps filling my bin with their rubbish, so a massive success today!!

I managed to complete Run 1, Week 5 of Couch 2 5k, against the wind!

My 9 year old playing and singing Bruno Mars loudly and tunelessly and my 13 year old coming back from rugby and telling me that on the way home he’d dropped down a steep slope on his bike and a group of old ladies had stopped and clapped him!

I was on the early shift at work. It was a tough shift & really busy, but my colleagues & I all supported each other & helped each other out, so we got through it in fine style.

I’m now relaxing in the sun room until DS gets home from work

First day of the holidays so no alarm was my best thing about today, and I slept the best I have in 2 weeks because my stupid cough didn't keep me awake.
Closely followed by giving the fridge a really good clear out.
Small wins!

BloodyHellBob · 14/04/2025 18:14

I woke at 4am, couldn’t get back to sleep so got up and went for a run, my first run in months because of an injury. It was slow but it felt great to be out. Made smoothies for breakfast with my DS(10), prepped dinner for tonight and all before 9am when I started work. My day flew by! I’m absolutely shattered now though!

Bfmamma · 14/04/2025 18:18

Just come back from a lovely holiday - boo
Get to sleep in my own bed - heaven

Wineinbathtub · 14/04/2025 18:19

Great thread! I gave a load of books and toys to a charity shop this morning and so we have a little but of extra space!!

My first day at my new job went really well!

largeprintagathachristie · 14/04/2025 18:20

Spotted (and smelt) my first wisteria of the Spring. Heavenly

TheNightingalesStarling · 14/04/2025 18:27

I completed 12 orders in my Etsy shop. Which means we are well ahead of our "getting ahead" schedule so we can have a guilt free weekend away.

NoviceVillager · 14/04/2025 20:12

I had a lovely day out with my youngest kid. He’s often quiet because his brother talks SO much, but today he had space to be the centre of attention.

Maitri108 · 14/04/2025 20:13

I used my lifetime guarantee to get a new wok. I'm delighted.

pearbottomjeans · 14/04/2025 20:14

Only 1?! 😁 I get to go downstairs now and play my gorgeous new piano.

(Let’s not mention that it’s 8:15 and the 3 year old has only just fallen asleep 😄). DH away, nursery day tomorrow and older 2 kids out with a friend all day then a sleepover!! 🥳

My mum spoke to her consultant today who has confirmed she is cancer-free. Best day ever 🎉

Dog sitting and house hunting. Taken dog on two walks. Lovely.

That's wonderful @bubbletubble!

bubbletubble · 14/04/2025 20:26

Thank you - we’ve both been a bawling mess for the past few hours and hasn’t really sunk in yet ❤️
