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? ☀️💛🙏

@TAB Do you have blood tests? How is the gym going? I understand the worry it just goes round in a kind of loop and even small things feel like big things.

Im not well. I wish I had better news but I’m struggling.

@TAB I really hope the blood tests come back good and you can stop another medication. As you know medications have side effects doesn’t mean we get any of them but often some do come up. Sometimes they’re less serious and can be tolerated but other times you might need to change meds or take another med to treat side effects. For you I’m hoping you can drop a med if the blood tests show it’s safe to do so.

Im impressed you are going to gym. Small steps my friend. It takes a bit of time to get used to doing a new thing but gym is healthy so I’m really wrapt you are giving it a go. I’m crap at gym lol!

I watched all the boats crossing the bar before sunrise this morning with my son on the phone (he was at work). The ocean was rough and the waves were pretty big. I saw one of the boats nearly capsize! A few boats turned back. These fisherman are crazy! I'll be going to church for the first time since coming back. Not a great sunrise this morning because of the fog.
