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? ☀️💛🙏

@heartathome I’m having a good day. Walked up the local shop. Get some interaction with checkout girl at least. Planted a seed and watered seeds and pots under eaves. Prepared silverbeet and feta in filo pastry ready for lunch. Having a break now with puss on my lap.She’s nice and warm. It’s a but cool here today but dry with some sun.

Hugs to you too.

@ENKELI old furniture is fine. I’ve ripped off the outer layers of a lounge just to keep the frame.

A good frame, is a good frame. You can do great things with a good lounge frame.

Always wanted to do a Lounge weave. But that’s for another conversation 🫢

I’m sure one day there will be collectors of vintage (?) IKEA furniture 🫤

Broken Poang chairs should be used for Back Burning 🔥

@GezzaP Hello how are you? What are you upto today?

Yes this tapering is a nightmare. I’m having brutal reaction to it and it’s taking ages because I was on a high dose of the anti depressant. My symptoms start fairly quickly like yours did due to the type of medicine. How did you get through it? Did anything help at all?

Good on you for walking to the shop this morning @GezzaP .That's a good routine to get into. My SANE counsellor is trying to get me to walk too. It's one of my goals. I'm so lazy I drive up town, even if it's a five-minute walk! Pathetic, I know! 😁 I used to walk when I had a dog. I haven't gone for a walk since. I had a spinach and fetta pie yesterday for lunch and dinner! I've still got more leftover, probably for dinner tonight! 😆 We're 31 degrees here today and expecting a storm this afternoon. 😎

I wish I had some of your desire to exercise @Kashmina 😉

Thanks for replying @Cuddlebear The support button is a real problem at the moment but I know they're doing their best! I'm doing okay (good for me 😎 ) I've been planning on going for a walk since 7am. I haven't walked in a couple of years. I still might get out yet. Coffee shops shut in an hour, though! Big sigh. I'd rather sit in my small unit and stay on the forum at the moment! I think my 13-year-old inner child is having a tantrum! 😉 I know that you're still feeling like s*** so I won't ask. I think tapering from a high dose should take months! I think they get it wrong sometimes. I hope your afternoon is peaceful and cool! I'm glad that you're on the forum and I've just happened to come across you. I am blessed! 💛

Hi @Chasingsunsets how are you?.

Sounds like you are doing a few workouts yourself..

Yes, I do feel if I get a bit an endorphin release then it's been a good session. But that's not always the case. But as you say there are good days and not so good days with everything.

I used to walk quite a bit with my dogs, but they have both passed away so it's harder to get the motivation with just yourself.

So it's good to be in a group.

Good to hear your car mirror is fixed, that would have been a surprise for you (anfd your elbow!)
