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? ☀️💛🙏

Hey @AuntGlow, so lovely to hear from you, a coffee and bagel sounds amazing!! When I go to south there is a great bagel shop I love to visit and I end up getting the same one every time 😂😂

It’s been an interesting few weeks, house sitting now which has gone soooo fast!! My eye is so much better now thanks for asking!! It took a little bit longer than 48hours to see improvements but all good now haha, you’d never know 😊.

You paint such an amazing visual picture of your work space!!! It sounds like a really nice peaceful area! Was it a scented candle?

How’s your week been?

Will post my highlight as soon as I finish my epic catchup 😉

@REDLINEZ750! How have you been? thanks for your posts and sorry it’s taken me a bit to get back to you! I just love the lil lions updates haha funny with one of his heads staying up, his little snorkle but to hear everything 😊

We haven’t been to the beach in a bit, out house sitting at the moment which has been fun and busy!! Indi is ok, think she has a bit of reflux atm but that should run its course and improve over the next few days hopefully!

Ohh I didn’t know about the green gooseberries I don’t think! Sounds like an awesome memory of yours though!! Were the green ones ripe or nah? Haha

Omg! I love the workout bunny pics that’s so awesome haha!!

Got to love a work out these days. I hated it at the beginning like @Bunniekins, but I have really learnt to enjoy and look forward to my work out days! I hope that happens for you @Bunniekins !!
I also love your gingerbread earring sooo cute!! do you have different Christmas ones? I hope you have been doing ok and your son has been a bit better when you have seen him.

Oh yesss Red, I have a portable battery car jumper they are truely the best!!!

@Chasingsunsets The psych heard me, and I will have a face to face next week. It was important he got how difficult it has been for me, and me being unfiltered in my vulnerability and not being a model patient. l am still seriously struggling and have many commitments in coming month. Day by day. Thanks for caring.

@heartathome, how are you my friend? Has the weather stayed nice for you? I reeeally love the truck with the hearts in it!! It’s so heart warming and just so perfect!! Thankyou for sharing 💜

Thanks for sharing your highlights, they have been lovely to read. I also love the forum here and having meaningful chats hey!! So soul warming right 😊

@Cuddlebear! My friend!! Thanks so much for your check-ins! So sorry I haven’t been able to get back to you until now!!

How has your week been? I hope the medical appts went ok. Thanks re cake!! Don’t bake sweets often but just felt like cake the other day haha.

It took me longer than normal to feel back to baseline. Actually I don’t think I am back to baseline just yet just feel so tired and that the days are going super quick that I just don’t have enough hours in the days atm 😜.
What have you been up to and how is Wilbur?

@Blackcloud, thanks so much for your updates, firstly that is so awesome that you applied for the paid role, good on you for stepping outside your comfort zone! I hear you are relieved you didn’t get the role however awesome that you applied great job amazing effort!! 👏 maybe one day I’m the future you might be curious to give it a shot when it’s offered again, to expand your skills when you are feeling more comfortable ☺️. Sounds like you have been taking on some more shifts too, good on you for helping out the community and also building your skills while you’re at it. Fantastic!!

Hi @Chasingsunsets good to see you around!

I will invest into a portable battery charger. Hmmmmm took the car to electrician and lets just say the story is changing all the time depending on what is happening with the car. The car is still working fine thanks.

@tyme!! You had a very early day the other day, awesome that you got a lot done!! I love those days!!! Hope you got to relax and put your feet up on the evening of your early day though 😉

Ohh and your highlight of just getting through and the busy days, I definitely connect with those days and them being the highlight. Sometimes it’s the small things right? 😊

How’s your weekend going?

@MDT I honestly love your highlight the other day! Coffee is life right? Haha esp when it is made just right ☺️😉☕️, I hope work has been good to you and you have had a good weekend so far! Thanks so much for stopping by, always lovely to hear from you!

Ps financial law sounds interesting too!

@ENKELI my friend!! How are you going? I am currently house sitting as I am sure you have probably seen already haha.
Sorry to hear about your friend, sounds like you are happy with how you have felt with the situation so that’s awesome you were able to preserve your energy and look after yourself 💜

I have something slightly similar going on at the moment. However most people who know me know I don’t put up with poor behaviour and if there is suboptimal behaviour there needs to be a conversation about it and accountability is a big part right. I have left it on my to do list, it’s about how I want to live my life and what’s worth dealing with as life is just so busy as you only live it once I guess. The older I get the better I am getting at this 🙏.
People are interesting though, there is always a lot from people, something to learn about yourself, different prespectives etc.
Sorry about my rant not sure where that came from 🤣🤣

I hope you have had a lovely weekend 💜

Hey @Appleblossom I am so glad you felt heard and good to hear you have a face to face next week.
I feel you, December gets a lot for me. It’s awesome that you recognise how you are atm and that you have reached out to your supports. Awesome job, that take courage and you have done so well. Day by day I like that and just permission to be easy on yourself as things are getting a bit stressful for you. Take care my friend, you are in my thoughts 🙏
