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? ☀️💛🙏

Glad you’re not in such pain now @PeppyPatti . My back is bad. Had trouble getting in and out of bed and watering garden and was a real struggle to take bin out. I’m so angry at myself for trying to lift box that I should’ve known was too heavy for me.

@PeppyPatti , thank you! It's a combination of the fact I like flowers 💐and coincidentally the year I was born 😅. It sounds like I have the many knowledge to learn from you, and what a privilege it is to be chatting to you 🤗

Learning how to rest is a massive quest. As you mentioned, sometimes the situations we are dealt with force us to take that rest... I appreciate said "rest's" difficulties with having to take 4 months off work, off pilates, off lots of things because I tore my lisfranc ligament when I fell down some stairs and sprained both ankles as well. It takes a lot of patience to get there... especially when you're used to being active a lot of the time... It really made me tank all the high adrenaline of a busy routine I'd been running off and become accustomed to a slow, uneventful routine.

I am sorry to hear that your husband is putting his barriers up when you are facing some health challenges. It's always difficult when we need our loved ones there but they are too engulfed with feelings about our situation, a lot of the time worrying or stress about the situation, but although we are facing the hurdles.. I guess they are affected by it too... I saw this myself with my injury, then my gastric ulcers and my depleted iron, and then of course my relapse of heightened anxiety. I know of course I was deeply affected by it... but didn't really comprehend maybe it also affected my partner too... this is too something I am becoming more aware of and learning about...

How are things looking today?
