I know it’s been done before but not for a while, and I love reading everyone’s little pleasures.
Today mine was hanging lots of brightly coloured towels on the line. Loved just looking at them gently blowing in the breeze. Loved the smell when I brushed past them too. Smile

Had a lovely chat with dd, who told me, I'm not perfect, as I'm shorter than most people Hmm but if she had a choice, out of thousands of mums, she'd pick me every time Smile

@woodcutbirds

@Onescaredmuma that sounds amazing. What a cute reaction. Where is the indoor rainforest? Is it in UK?

Yes it's in Berkshire it's called the living rainforest it's a lovely day out. It's giant greenhouses with stunning plants and animals.

I had a nap this afternoon.

LittleAndOften · 07/05/2019 22:36

I went for a gentle swim while ds was at nursery. I'm pregnant and the feeling of weightlessness was just glorious. I came out in such a wonderful mood!

PenguinsRabbits · 07/05/2019 22:43

Looked outside and saw our apple tree is in blossom.

Bought a penguin musical bath toy for DS.

I joined a fitness class. I'm overweight and super unfit. It was a beginners class and I was really nervous but I loved it! I feel really warm now and my body feels good. Not in pain like after more hardcore classes that I've dipped my toe in before. Everyone was unfit and I felt like one of them instead of the fat unfit one at the back. I've signed up for a 6 week programme! Go me!

SisyphusHadItEasy · 08/05/2019 01:45

@GodDammitAmy I am so proud of you - I need a fitness class, but am petrified to join one.

My happy thing - since I last posted, I came home and heard the stories of my youngest's day at a special fitness day of her own that she worked towards. She is so proud, and my pride in her is doubled by her pride in herself.

CSIblonde · 08/05/2019 02:05

Played mouse tennis with the cat on the sofa. Never fails to make my day.

NewYoiker · 08/05/2019 02:33

Went for my first ever run. 😳

NewYoiker · 08/05/2019 02:38

Added context- I'm 19 stone 😳

OnlineAlienator · 08/05/2019 02:39

Bought my first strong, barista made coffee for a while.

Learnt some new things in my specialist subject - always a buzz

MrsMozartMkII · 08/05/2019 12:45

Got my car cleaned and they've done a grand job of it. First time I've used this lot and will definitely be back.

The dogs will have to go on the roof rack!

IamPickleRick · 14/05/2019 11:18

Bringing this back to say that, I have never grown anything in my life, and the marigold seeds I planted have got buds on them today 🧡

PicnicAtHangingRock · 14/05/2019 11:23

Finally sending an email that’s been on my to do list for ages as it wasn’t urgent but was about to start getting urgent. Thank God I can forget about it now.

Also, walking the dog.

user1497997754 · 14/05/2019 11:25

Kissed my dog on her nose x
