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? ☀️💛🙏

@SaltwaterSoul my best friend and I celebrated 50 years of knowing each other in 2024 and promised we would do a trip to commemorate our friendship. We are doing a 13 day cruise, starting with 3 days in Barcelona, then stops in Italy and France. We are then going to do 4 days in London. My bestie lived in London for nearly 10 years so she's going to be my tour guide while I sight see.

I haven't been on a holiday since 2014 when my mum, brother and I did a 3 day cruise for Australia Day long weekend. 🙂

I'm so glad your ego is healthy and I'm f***** comes from a very loved understanding of you @PeppyPatti !! I'm also pleased that 'I'm a nothing' is more of a joke between the three of you! After the therapy you've had, I think it's good how you can take the mickey out of yourself.

Oh. Peppy. What a caring thing to do to look after your ex with your husband! He is very blessed to have you both!

I hope you have a good day Peppy! Sending hugs and much love 💜

ha ha That's funny. I used to drink a lot of earl grey tea before I changed to coffee in the last couple of years. Sometimes it does upset my stomach if I drink too much. I wish I liked the herbal teas as they're much healthier.

I love your name @SaltwaterSoul Do you live by the beach? No need to say if you don't want to!

I hope you have a good day! Have you got anything planned? 💜

Some big highlights for me as of yesterday so far are:

1. I got a call from the NDIA planner yesterday. She was so lovely & I’ll be having a meeting with her this upcoming Thursday with my new support coordinator (the one I just met today) involved

2. the new support coordinator I first met today works at the same company as my current support coordinator but the new support coordinator is more experienced and she was also really lovely to talk to and meet with 🙂 she’s also neurodivergent which is a bonus for me! 🙂

aaaaa I’m so happy weeeee I’m confident and hopeful that with this new support coordinator that will be joining in the meeting that my new plan adjustments will be successful for this Thursday!!

wish me luckkkk

@PeppyPatti How are you lovely? It sounds like you have a lot going on supporting your ex.

I’ve been unwell and off forums. I feel like I really am burdening people here.

@Blackcloud you're so welcome sweetheart ❤️.

I'm sorry i haven't always been able to reply much to your posts, sometimes it's hard to find the words with how things have been for me. But know that I'm always thinking of you and sending hugs your way ❤️.

I truly hope it all starts to work out for you sweet, you deserve to live the life you want and I believe you'll get there ❤️

@Blackcloud such good news!!! Keep us posted on how it goes this week 😊 -- good or bad!

@Cuddlebear You have never been a burden to me. I will keep repeating this as a loving reminder and to combat the challenging thoughts that try to tell you otherwise. You could literally complain all day if you wanted to, and it wouldn't be a burden - I'd comment and support when available, and still be able to do what else I need to do in-between. Doing that for someone I care about, someone who is my friend, that is not a burden at all. It doesn't even feel like a sacrifice! And you know I'm a straight-shooter who doesn't lie*, so the fact I'm outright stating this.... means it true 😉.


(*seriously, even in cardgames where you are MEANT to lie I find it excruciatingly hard! I prefer to side-step questions and divert rather then lie)

I'm heading off soon, and not sure if I will get back to forums later tonight or not. Tuesday evenings are usually offline for me.

@MissGremlin it’s ok my friend I really appreciate you for telling me 🫂 because sometimes I can’t tell if you still wanted to talk to me or not, but at the same time I always do my best to try not assume such things and to give you space because I know how much you really deserve to have some space ❤️ I’m sending you hugs back too friend, I know the feeling of it being difficult to find words to say when overwhelmed ☺️❤️🫂💗

@AlwaysMyself will definitely keep you posted my friend! ❤️ I also found a career consultant that is ND and provides a neuroaffirming approach so hopefully whenever I get to have my first session with her through NDIS that my sessions with her will be good!
