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 there @ENKELI!! We had a lovely walk thank-you! I saw a shovel nose shark/ ray briefly which was cool.

Haha funny you talk about mr murdermittens I have seen the odd cat down the beach 😅. They dont go very far from the start of the beach but the ones I have seen don’t mind it. Cats are so funny!!

Hehe that would be so cool I think it would be doable from a kitten, one of my friends had a kitten I took indi around a lot or they would visit us- he ended up being very dog like Indi loved him and so did I!! He was very cool. Unfortunately he died young poor fella he was so cool though!!

Sorry for delay in reply I was busy looking for pics haha thanks so much for taking me down memory lane!! 🥰💜

Oh a shame about not being able to open your bedroom window but probably for the best! Want to stay safe!! Glad it’s cooled down for you!!

I hope you have had a nice night as-well!! Whats on for you tomorrow 😊

getting the lefts and rights in 😅 

 games from under the couch then pounce! 😀

 loved Indi’s bed 🤣

Aw we both miss this boy he was a lot of fun and the most dog like cat I have known lol

yeah im going into residential care for 16-20 weeks to fix a problem i can't fix on my own @Chasingsunsets but caused on my own when i knew better.

if addiction was a broken leg that got fixed 10 years, then i walked strong enough to forget the pain of it when 2 years ago it got hit hard and simultaneous chain of events over next 15months made it flare up and when i was limping got tested and failed.

now the leg that was broken has shattered so I'm going to fix it again coz i am built for walking strong and the head of all things broken listened when i apologised and agreed to fix it again

only a shatter requires more work, commitment and focus than a break.

just wish i could remember lessons that i should and want to instead of ones i do amd wish i didnt.

Good on you @REDLINEZ750 this takes true courage to tackle, proud of you mate!!

This must be incredibly hard to leave mr Pooky while you are away. I hope it’s a nice enough place and the staff and other residents are nice too. When do you head off?

How are you feeling about it all? Will you be allowed to hop on the forum or nah? We will miss you here if you’re not able to visit. But we will always be thinking of you and wish you only the very best in your recovery journey, you got this 🙏

I don’t know much about motorbikes (lol) but I know you like them so I just found these colourful ones for ya ☺️

@AlwaysMyself I thought I had missed seeing your name pop up. Do you suffer from fatigue all the time, or does it come and go?

I hope you are recovering well from your day procedure.

Good morning @REDLINEZ750

I slept in today till 5.30am. Mind you I didn't take my meds till 9.30pm so I'm not surprised! It sounds like you're ready to leave. I didn't know or forgot you had a snake as well. Please don't tell me the rats are alive when you feed them to slitherine! I'd rather not know! I'm glad someone is going to look after her!

Pooky knows something is going on. It reminds me of the times I've used the psych hospital to detox and had to say 'see ya later' to Mannie. I would be gone a month at a time. It was hard. I even doubted that I could go and leave him. We both survived it! Yes, we were very happy to see each other when I'd get back! I believe you are both going to be okay!

Please be gentle with yourself when you're away, and while you're at it, try to be gentle with that boy inside. Your thoughts and feeling would be associated with him!

Hope to see you around today. 💛

Thank you @AlwaysMyself It is appreciated! Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. I'm way behind in replying to the posts because I'm finding my own 'support button' for each one!
