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? ☀️💛🙏

Hi @Chasingsunsets, my day yesterday was good! I didn’t get up to too much, made an earlier dinner and then relaxed and watched Prison Break. How was your day? The picnic was lovely, besides the seagulls haha. They are so naughty and persistent lol

I love Nutella too! Same here, I haven’t come across a really good Nutella doughnut in ages ☹️ I remember the fresh sugar and cinnamon ones you’re talking about though, they were SO good!

Yes, I love my new hair colour! I usually go for more of a caramel tone, but this time it’s more of a brown/honey warm tone, if that makes sense lol. I only get half foils though as I’m naturally a brunette. What colour do you usually get done?

My dad’s birthday went really well thank you 😊 and the quiche actually came out really nice! I was pretty happy with how they turned out.

I hope the freezer Tetris went okay 😂 Did you manage to fit everything in?

Yummmm, green chicken curry! Now I feel like Thai food even though it’s still early haha

I can understand why you’d feel confused about your medication when it has some good benefits but also seems to be making some things worse. Hopefully you can chat with your doctor about it and work out whether the benefits are outweighing the negatives for you. And honestly low motivation happens sometimes too, so hopefully your walk tonight helps a little 😊

I don’t have much on this week, so it’s more of a quiet one. I might go to the movies, which would be nice 😊 What about you? Anything planned for your big week of work?

@Chasingsunsets haha yay to having matching colours! I remember the conversation about whether what Indy found on the beach was a squishy or something else 😂. Haha oh I do remember the conversation about the stick, it gives me a good chuckle cos the stick is floppy and reminds me of a tongue 😂. I'm not sure if I remember the capybara one though, I did see axolotl ones yesterday. The needoh one is my favourite of course, but the others are fun to squish aswell. There was so many at my local kmart yesterday, I had a hard time choosing 😂. It was definitely exciting finding them!

Morning @Taali I'm glad you could get at least a few hours sleep. It's very early to be watching my real crime but I'm addicted to it. I put it on at 6am! I did manage to have a shower this morning, which I'm happy about and I just came back from my walk. It's very overcast here today and looks like it could rain.

Congratulations on getting the job @TAB That's great news!

Love you @Chasingsunsets Nothing much planned for the week. Day by day. Only Vinnies set for Thursday and Saturday morning. I'm thinking of going and staying with my son early next week for a couple of days. Just thinking about it at this stage.

Good morning @MissGremlin and everyone else who's up. 💚

Thanks @heartathome re job its their version of training wage,but yeah. been waiting weeks for the contract.

the interview monday was for a fulltime position. I sorta got pushed into applying for it after saying I was okay with hourly paid. Getting that might be a stretch.

..however ... (pic alert)..

You're better than me, having a shower! @heartathome

I've set my alarm for 8:30.

When I'm in this state I need to give myself guidelines.

What true crime have you been watching?

I saw one recently titled Death of the Pastors Wife. Really very interesting.

Taali 💙

Yep, I've seen that one @Taali It was good. I'm watching the crime channel on TV at the moment. I won't say what it's about as it might trigger someone. 🙂

Hey everyone. My highlight has been the furniture shop calling to tell me that my new sofa set is ready for delivery on Friday!!.Yippee!!!!😄😄

Might not sound like a big deal to some but I'm super excited 😆

Now I've got to get old chunky one out.

I was happy and then I got a shock. I'm so happy you got a new sofa. I want to get a new recliner or a massage chair. I always use the shopping centre massage chairs @Taali

However might not fit a massage chair through the narrow doorway and we are unfortunately up two flights of stairs

Re: What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

That's exactly the same problem I have with removing the old couch @Lozenge

Time to swallow my pride and ask for my brother's help.

Unfortunately his help invariably comes with his wife who has excluded me from family functions.

Smile, smile, smiley.

Taali 💙
