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? ☀️💛🙏

@Chasingsunsets @DownMoreThanUp @REDLINEZ750 I arrived home not long ago, to find this visitor relaxing at the end of the driveway.

The laundry is directly opposite my cabin, and on occasions, I would go to walk in the laundry and there would be a kangaroo standing there staring at me. But once I move, they normally hop away.

@PeppyPatti I love nature too. Lucky I live near the beach and some nice park areas.

I don't like inside where I live, as it is too small and cluttered. So when my mind is cluttered and not thinking clearing, my house is also cluttered. But I get overwhelmed if I try to do anything about it. I am hoping since my partner has some time off over Christmas, he can help me sort some of the clutter out.

Dear @Mustang67

me too. My kitchen has a cube ikea I found side of road : I’m not even going to tell you what it looks like

and then I go to bed. I think I’m like you.
my husband watches the cricket. How can I expect him to do anything when he’s as tired as me.
I’m beginning to see I live with no muscle development.

@PeppyPatti my bedroom has a cube ikea, I got from Marketplace. I know that I definitely have muscle loss because of all the time I spend in bed with my MDD & CPTSD. My leg, arms and back now shake when I need to use my muscles.

II have found a place that can measure how much muscle you have lost and where from, and then they set you up with an exercise program to start the strengthening process. But it's not cheap. I was supposed to start it on the 13th of Jan, but because of my gallbladder surgery, I can't start until I have to all clear from the doctor, hopefully on the 5th of Feb.

My partner works a full-time job that requires heavy lifting and then has to look after my needs when he arrives home. I can't cook, so he has to take care of that as well. I often feel like I am a burden to him, but he just tells me he loves me, and I am his rock, and he doesn't mind doing what he has to.

I have to be organised or I forget @PeppyPatti . Been for my morning walk. On way back was a bit unpleasant as needed to pee badly - i have a weak bladder - didn’t even take off backpack before rushing to the loo. Checking emails before watering no rush it’s nice and cool this morning. My helper is coming Xmas eve. He will come early to clean house then we’ll have roast pork in the weber and a few drinks. I’ll be on my own Xmas day which is ok cause I’ll probably be tired.

Hope your day is ok.

@Chasingsunsets

I watched the first episode of season 1 of portrait artist of the year the other day. I hadn’t seen it before but I really enjoyed it. My highlight today was getting in and out of the shops before it got crazy.
