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? ☀️💛🙏

Thanks @AlwaysMyself .

Yes, we are all people. During my time here, that's one thing I've always aimed to do - to bring out the humanity that glues these forums together. These forums mean a lot to me and sets them apart from so many of the forums I've seen out there. It's like my family.

I recognise change is hard. Yet when one struggles/suffers, we all feel it.

I know everyone is doing their best, and that's why we are here.

Thank you for listening.

I hear ya @tyme . Im glad to have my forum family here too. Including g'ma @Shaz51 ! 😋😋🥰🥰 🤭

I think i just finished the "first-coat" (not touch ups or second layer for patchy bits) of the paint by number just now. @Chasingsunsets @Cuddlebear @Flutterbug9 @MissGremlin @NightFury @Captain24 @Bow @creative_writer and others who like such things.

 

@Blackcloud wondering how the first of the groups went today?

Thanks for sharing @tyme, hope you are doing ok. Sending hugs also and here to listen as-well. Sitting with you 🙏

Might not be the right timing and happy to have this conversation another time, it does make me wonder if sane is still going to have PSWs on the forum and if this is going to be same rostered hours and same amount of psws per shift?
This place has been amazing (even though I am still new) and I am sure if we need to we can create a thread of all the positive and good things this forum is with PSWs.
Sometimes when decisions are made it’s “business only” not from the heart and not with emotion just business minded, maybe perhaps with ?no lived experience (don’t mean it in a bad way) or less understanding what it’s means to have psws here. Sorry if this is a lot and didn’t mean for it to potentially make things worse if this is what’s happening for you, I think when reading your post this is what it has brought up for me (been quietly thinking a lot about the direction of the forum re changes) and we would really like to support all your PSWs of course. 🫶

(and sorry if I went down the wrong rabbit hole and got it wrong also 😬💜🌻)

@Shaz51 @AlwaysMyself + everyone

Thanks for the tag lovely @AlwaysMyself it was alright (not too bad) but having my support worker with me the whole time for today in the program makes it feel less anxiety-inducing, and I’d love to have her with me for every sessions that I attend.

i might have to meet/talk to other participants in the classroom at some point when the weeks go by throughout the program. So when I think about that now, I’m not sure how to feel about having to talk to them at some point lol

Love your painting @AlwaysMyself !! Good job!! How long does it normally take your paint by numbers that had a lot of detail!

“Staff and non staff”. @AlwaysMyself

Same perspective as myself.

when I was working, numerous senior staff were politely told by me, “at the end of the day, no one is better than anyone else”
