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? ☀️💛🙏

Just popping by to say a general "hello" 😊.

@Chasingsunsets @AuntGlow @ENKELI @heartathome @GezzaP @REDLINEZ750 @Mustang67 @Judi9877

I haven't been online as much the last few weeks due to fatigue - popping by every day or two to read and respond to tags mostly. I expect that from christmas i will have a bit more energy as i will have some time to rest and take it easy. 😊

Today's "highlight" is a "grateful" for the competent and friendly doctors and nurses (just a minor day procedure). Poor doctor trying to find my vein for the canular lol, she did very well! Barely hurt at all despite the challenge. 🥰

Thanks for your message @REDLINEZ750

I’m in a pain management ward of a local hospital this week receiving medical infusion due to chronic pain. There are 3 specific requirements 1) getting dressed in day clothes every day 2) moving as much as possible on regular basis 3) listening to one’s body, resting and sleeping whenever needed. Have various comfort and self care items with me, as discussed with my pain management Dr. lovely lady whose first qualification was psychiatrist, has holistic view and is very easy to talk with

Helloooo @AlwaysMyself 😀 so nice to see you on the forum!! Sorry to hear you have felt fatigued lately!

Aw that’s so good that they were able to find one of your veins. That would have been a big relief for you. I hope your day procedure went well 🙏

Sorry @Chasingsunsets I missed your previous message.

ive gotten few walks in today. Lot better, pain wise, than yesterday which is an indication medical infusion is doing what is wanted. Missed out doing couple walks, nana nap took precedence.

Had good talk with pain management Dr when she visited tonight. She said everything I described is 100% normal and provided explanation what my body is doing. Also mentioned current indicators showing positive outcome from the infusion. She mentioned some short term side effects I might experience as of tomorrow plus how nurses can support me to enable me to continue taking my short ward laps. 💛

I love pickles! I had a reuben sub in America in 2016 and it was delicious. I think I would love a reuben toastie.

@Chasingsunsets hey there lovely! I hope you and Indi had a nice walk together. I do miss having a dog to walk. A shame I can't walk Mr Murdermittens but as soon as I put a harness on him he becomes one with the ground and refuses to move!

How fun would it be to walk the cat, lol! 😆

Maybe my next kitten I'll train to walk on a harness and leash!

It's cooled down a lot now and I would love to leave my bedroom window open but it faces the front yard so I would be worried about someone trying to break in.

I hope you had a nice night my sweet 🥰
