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? ☀️💛🙏

@ENKELI they are two different electrical saws. I have both.

It’s bloody freezing out here.

An over tired ADHD 9 year old boy.

His parents are currently leading the team in their section, by a ridiculous margin.

@Glisten lol, figures. I googled your saw and it looked like a drop saw. Because I know so much about power tools.

It's cold here too, though not as cold as it would be for you, it's currently 14 outside but my thermometer is telling me it's 20 inside...probably because the heater is on...

Time to ask the Man Upstairs to give your team a boost.

Oh possum. @ENKELI

I'm fine. I'm just a HSP.

A Highly Sensitive Person, or HSP, is someone with something called sensory processing sensitivity (SPS) found in about 15-20% of the population. They process information a lot more deeply than others.

They are empathetic

Get stuck in their thoughts.

Get overstimulated.

Get overwhelmed by chaotic environments.

Hsp people can quickly feel frazzled and needing to withdraw and recharge. It also means that they pick up on negativity.

That's me. It's going to take ages to get me back in the groove because it was important for me to finish that round of letters to get cred. To that poor woman who lives here but the 2 volunteers were suffocating her.

And I was abused from those councellors in the council.

My husband has turned into the brain of a 10 year old whilst the footy is on.

I had that interview with my support coordinators ( @Cuddlebear )

They were very good. I was ' too scared to see them and guess what ? There was no reason to be.

Thanks @Cuddlebear !!

@ENKELI I’m impressed that you used a Drop aka Miter saw. Many women find the noise of woodworking machines off-putting.

Kudos to you my friend.

You don’t strike me as a woman who is easily intimidated by anything.

In fact I don’t think you fully comprehend what you have achieved by being a female debt-free Home Owner, during a social surge of Employed Homeless women.

What you have achieved is truly remarkable! 👑

Going from Ryobi to Makita, is like going from Daewoo to Land Rover.

@PeppyPatti my darling Pepster, thank you for explaining that you are a HSP.

You are a kind and loving woman, smarter than you believe.

Happy Friday everyone we have made it through another week! 🙏

Today my friend was back the Black shouldered kite! I only ever saw him first the other week! (Didn’t even know a black shouldered kite existed! Lol) he/she has some beautiful eyeliner that’s for sure a very impressive bird of prey @REDLINEZ750

Being sick all week with the flu, this was my first proper walk with Indi since Friday the 12th so for that I am grateful. It’s been lovely 🌻☀️

What has your highlight been today? 🌈
