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? ☀️💛🙏

@Glisten your dinner sounds as healthy as mine. I had a hazelnut latte, shortbread and a peanut butter sammich. At least the sammich was rye bread. 4 star health rating so the bread bag tells me.

Please get some sleep my darling Tomaatii. We need all 20 of our fingers.

I'm relieved you have nearly finished Frankentable. I hope you are getting paid...and handsomely for your work.

One day I will get a piece commissioned by you. It will be like all of your work. A masterpiece ✨️ 👏

@ENKELI my Retiisi shortbread and peanut butter sandwich Mmmm 🤤

The one thing I bake very well is shortbread. But you need a good oven that heats evenly.

I edited my post and added a photo of upside down Frankentable. It gives you an idea of how long this beast is.
The crap in the background is their :pile_of_poo: furniture.

I would rather sit on a plastic drink crate than have their furniture.

Yes they offered me their ugly furniture because they don’t want to take it to the dump 😬

@Glisten I'm sure there are some barren chicken coops that need some furniture. Or perhaps even they wouldn't take it 😁

I should talk. My couch is so old that it has no spring left in it. I keep waiting for the old man to hurry up and give me my inheritance if you catch my drift. Selfish old bleep, do something good for once in your life!

@REDLINEZ750 Besides a painful back, I am good. How have things been going for you?

I assume that the first bike picture in you profile is yours? Do you ride often? When I met my ex-husband, he had a Honda Firebird. And then after a few years, he changed to a Hayabusa. I loved the power of that bike. I really enjoyed going out on it every Friday night for a ride through the city, then down to the beach and then to the hills where i got dropped off and the guys would drive up and down the winding roads.

thats a bike @Mustang67 not many match it on open rd and my brother swears they are quite agile around town.

they can shred a brand new tyre in a day without sneezing & first bike to be governed at 300 clicks. not for faint hearted hahaha.

i have a preference for naked bikes, more punishing at top end with wind resistance and wanna hope helmets snug but i like the position and im an idiot that goes over islands and stuff when needed through bush whatever plastics just fet damaged too easy.

750 keeps me sorta honest if i had a bike does 300 id find myself on a freeway middle of night thinking wonder what that extra 80ks feels like while noones around 🤔

@REDLINEZ750 the ex had his up to 250 with me on the back, and then the arsehole ducked. I nearly went flying off the back. I was not amused, and he got a hit on his helmet for his troubles, Apparently, he tried to get it to 300, but it was becoming a bit unstable, so he backed off.

And if the cops ever tried to pull him over, he wouldn't stop because he knew that they could not catch him.

It's funny a friend once asked me what I saw in my ex-husband and my answer was a cool motor bike. Lol

I created this image just for you 😊

Morning @heartathome sorry for the late reply and thank you re still being around 😊

Prickly? Well ..... I have not been feeling great lately, anxiety is playing havoc with me, low energy, feeling disengaged with life etc. I feel the meds I am on are not working and are not making me feel great so after a discussion with my doctor I am coming off them. The road feels quite difficult but no more difficult than how I was feeling on them and I must remember that.

I went in for a leadership unit and it is part of an advocacy certificate but I decided yesterday that the course was not right for me. I believe I would be suited to this type of work but in a different environment. I am going to take some time for me. Walking, trying to reconnect with things I love such as nature and maybe my community. But slowly, slowly 🐌

What are you up to today?
