To ask what nice things happened to you this week.

[smittenkittten]

I've cut down on my calories and can fit into my jeans again. Only lost five pounds but it's made a big difference. 😊 What nice things have happened to you this week?

Went for a walk in a local bluebell wood. The sun was shining, the bluebells looked amazing, smelled fabulous and the tea room was open for tea and cakes afterwards!

My neighbour gave me two tickets for the ballet and I took my teen dd to escape a-level exam stress for an evening.

It’s the first time we’ve been out together for a night out and it was lovely. Well done on your 5lbs.

My daughter walked 5 steps on her own, it was wonderful

Had an email saying council conceded so dd finally gets her EHCP without the hassle and fight of a day in court...

The boy has his first invite to a birthday party without any involvement from me.. it's on a gaming bus he's very excited.

Nice user name - I found a lovely gluten free cake recipe on Smitten Kitchen to make for my son's birthday. That was nice.

We also had some lovely flowers bloom in the front garden.

Oh, and I found a very nice bottle of Whiskey that I didn't know we had.

The long tailed tits have returned to my front garden.

My 10 year old stepson came and gave me a cuddle for the first time out of nowhere. Seems like nothing but I was trying not to tear up when telling DH.

My sister had both my children overnight. Me and DP went for a meal and got happily pissed on the sofa, had a long lie in and a lazy shag. Heaven.

Nice thread OP. DH & I managed to get out together for the first time in ages. We had a pub lunch & my food was absolutely lush. Also the weather was stunning.

My grandchildren that live a few hours away came to stay for their cousins birthday. It was so lovely having 2 whole days of cuddles 🥰

A neighbour is giving me their dining table and chairs, after knowing mine had given up the ghost last year and I hadn't replaced it yet. It needs a little work (the DH had painted it white so I'll need to strip it back to the wood and stain in) but is in otherwise great condition. I'm looking forward to a weekend project and Sunday dinner on a dining table again! And all they want in return is one of my lemon drizzle cakes for their daughter's birthday next month

Love reading these. Just shows it's the little things in life.🤗

My daughter and me went for a ride out on our ponies. The weather was beautiful and there were cowslips everywhere. Just 😊 bliss

My colleagues are just lovely and have been super nice to me this week. I had a monthly catch up with one of the team leaders who told me what a brilliant job I’m doing and how delighted they are to have me.

Not a big thing, but really has helped my week along.

I saw the northern lights! Pure magic 😁

I got offered a new job I was headhunted for and a salary way beyond my expectations

I’d love to see them. 😁

i went on a northern lights chasing thing in Iceland a few years ago but they didn’t make an appearance. Alas.

Congratulations. That’s definitely brilliant news.

I won £100 and a small hamper in a raffle - I never win ANYTHING.

Because my week has been bad, my husband came home with a lovely bouquet of flowers for me.

I finally finished decorating my living room which has been a complete state for the last 8 years! Can't wait to sit down and relax in there later!!

MIL finally came round to ours after being unwell for the past month or so. She celebrated the end of Passover with us, and hung out with toddler DD all morning. It was lovely to see DD jabbering away in Hebrew with her and DH. Makes me glad that we're persisting with raising her bilingual, even though it sometimes feels like an uphill battle.

It was my birthday yesterday. DH took me for breakfast and the place (Boston tea party) gave me a free piece of cake

My new man told me he loved me for the first time. Feeling the love ❤

Passed my RHS exams.
