What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

Hi everyone! This is my first ever forum post so do hope it lands where it’s meant to 🤣

Most days, I like to find a highlight 😊. Usually, that means during a walk with my dog, I try to spot something different, something cool or something that brings me some happiness. Whether it’s something big or small, it doesn’t matter. A highlight can be anything!

I love taking photos and would really like to share and see what you've come across. Something that made you smile, sparked your interest, or simply caught your eye. For me, it’s all the little things that count on the hard days.


To start, I’d like to share these beautiful birds I came across today. They like to appear like branches of a tree or the tree itself. They are called Tawny Frogmouth’s. Has anyone else seen these types of birds? My pics below -(hopefully not too small to see two in the tree on the left pic).

What have you seen today? ☀️💛🙏

Love your coin @Mustang67

I slept for nearly 6 hours so that’s ok.

Will walk to local shop and water seeds and pots this morning before appt for acupuncture. After that I’ll continue weeding garden. Big job lots of weeds.

Then in the afternoon I have to decide about whether to get solar battery or not. Big decision as large up front cost.

Nice photo @Chasingsunsets .
I slept for nearly 6 hours last night so ok. 7 or 8 would have been better but never mind.

Will do Spanish lessons, exercises and walk up local shop. Then will water seeds and pots. Acupuncture at 10am. After that I’ll continue weeding.

Going to be warm here today with possible shower in the afternoon so might be humid.

If rains I will put indoor plants outside.

I have to decide about whether to get solar battery this afternoon.
If I have any energy left I’ll continue weeding after I decide.

Thanks @REDLINEZ750 for this. I like muscle tensing and relaxing and meditation works ok too.

Slept almost 6 hours last night so ok. 7-8 hours would have been better but never mind.
Will walk to local shop early this morning, water seeds and pots, do some weeding.
Acupuncture at 10am.

Making decision about whether to get solar battery today too.

@Chasingsunsets I'm also visual. I think I've seen a close up of Indi on one of the threads. I'm so glad that you've got her. I've had many cats and one dog, Mannie. He was a silky terrier cross chihuahua and passed in '23. I'm thinking of getting another cat as my unit now is too small for a dog. I think there's nothing like coming home to a pet! 💛

@Bunniekins Good morning.Still early here. Should really try and catch some more down time, but running a little high at the moment. Should be a joyful day i suppose.

No sure what i'm up to today, depends a lot on my energy levels, like always.

i hope to fit a bigger poly pipe between my filter and our fish pond. For the water comes faster into the filter than it can run out, although it could easily run faster. However the 17mm poly pipe i used will not let more water through. But i still got an inch poly pipe, that should be long enough to fit in between my filter and the pond. (they are about 10 metres away from each other.) This way i should be able to harness the full cleaning potential of my filtration system, instead of turning the speed down as i have been forced to do now.

Not sure what my wife is up to today, she might want to do things as well, for she is having her usual day off from work. We did not discuss it yesterday.

Have a great day.

Morning my sweet @Bunniekins, hope everyone enjoys the picnic ☺️. We have hot day here but thunderstorms hopefully later on today and then tomorrow it's going to be cooler before heating up again on the weekend. Love you beautiful ❤️

@GezzaP I actually enjoy weeding. I used to go outside with my phone & speaker and put music on and start weeding. I find it gives me time to think things over. Since I live in a caravan park, I no longer have a garden. But with the back issues I now have, I doubt my body could take it any more.

I hope you have an enjoyable day and decide on a solar battery or not 🌞
