The Highlight of Your Day thread

The Highlight of Your Day thread

I thought it might be nice to have a place to share the highlight of your day (even if it's found in a fleeting moment) 🙂

For me today, the highlight of my day was finishing the most annoying round of crochet in a blanket I have been working on for months. This round has taken me so long and I've found it so frustrating that I didn't think I would ever finish the project. Stitch by (incredibly frustrating) stitch it came together. Super excited to get to change colours and start the next round now!

Looking forward to hearing anyone else's highlights 🙂

Thank you @Mazarita @CheerBear @Shaz51 @Zoe7. I am excited about it but also super scared. My brain is soooooo not working at its optimum level. However, even with my puddle brain, I have a lot of time to do this marking so even though it will probably take me 2-3 times longer than it should, I'm hoping to still get it done ok. And then HOPEFULLY more work will come my way down the track when my brain is less muddled. Hee hee, can you imagine the comments I'm going to be putting on the work of these poor students: "this is super bad," "I super like this bit," "I think you've done a super good job here."

Made a real dinner (apparently my body thinks that cake and ice cream isn't a "real dinner" 😒 )

And finished Thing 1 at work, also made progress on Thing 2.

It's been a while since I've been here too. I think writing here needs to be one of my daily goals.

Today has been relatively calm once I got over my early morning bad mood. I spoke to people irl today and got a taste of people's lives, it was quite humbling. I am no longer hiding or down playing my mi but I'm not discussing specific things, just saying I had a difficult few days last week and leaving it there. It seems to be ok so far. I'm trying not to feel so much shame for it.

The day's highlight was the glorious sunny warm day. Feeling the sun warm me up was lovely and soothing. I also found myself watching these strands that looked like hair floating across the oval as I watched my kids play football, and then realising they were spider web strands gracefully looking for somewhere to attach. It was quite mesmerising.

So nice to read about your day @Former-Member 🙂

Maybe we can encourage each other to find and share our highlights as I havent been here for a while either.

Today had lots of good in it with my little people but one little highlight I had was a moment of seriously appreciating how great pink lady apples are right now. They're the crunchiest, sweetest, juiciest most delicious apples I've had for ages, and I love apples. Small things sometimes 😊
