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 🙂

@Former-Member, if @Former-Member was helpful, I'm guessing the problem she helped you make sense of wasn't anything to do with daylight savings.

@Zoe7 you have a point there. @Former-Member probably uses a sundial. Um...to adjust a sundial for daylight savings, would you have to turn it slightly to the right or to the left? I'm thinking it would be to the right. What do you think?

Where IS @Former-Member??? Maybe I should add a disclaimer here that I did ask her if I could share this in Forum Land - I wouldn't want anyone thinking I was being disrespectful and offensive to @Former-Member now would I!

Wow @Shaz51 - what an outstanding photo! Did you take that with your Pentax 30 camera? Did you photoshop this pic? That deserves first place in the photography section at the Easter show! You could do that for a living @Shaz51. Thanks for sharing

The highlight of my day today was watching two of mine speak in front of the whole school ☺

At one point I was really concerned about how one of them would manage school at all so it was great to see them standing up there, big in all their tiny-ness, chest puffed out and confident 😊

This was the highlight of my day yesterday evening. And yes, it is now officially out of date and no I don't care. Use-by dates are so over-rated.

Bet you can't guess what I'll be having for breakfast lunch and dinner today and possibly tomorrow (if there's any left by then).

The highlight of my day is that I just managed to do a forearm stand for about ten seconds before I fell over. I super want to be able to do it as effortlessly as I can stand on my head. I super love the feeling of getting better at something. I always find that having a sense of mastery (at pretty much anything!!!!) super helps to lift my mood. I'm awesome! (This is your cue to tell me I'm awesome @Former-Member @Former-Member and anyone else who feels the need to declare my awesomeness).

It's probably just as well that I'm yoga-ing so much after my weekend highlight (see previous post). Sadly that highlight only lasted a day. @NikNik do you think being able to consume an entire chocolate cheesecake in a day also warrants a celebration of my awesomeness? I truly do excel at the important things in life.

OMG @Phoenix_Rising,

just the picture of the cheesecake makes my mouth water!

You are AWESOME if you can eat all that !!!!!

Bet it was YUMMY!

Note to self: do not rush out and buy a chocolate cheesecake as you have a dodgey liver!

Hi @CheerBear @Former-Member @Phoenix_Rising @Shaz51 @Former-Member and everyone

The highlight of my day was finding a Strassman TED at the op shop. He's been through the wash and is now drying . I've been trying to add a picture here but it's not working...but if you google Strassman TED, there's some youtube clips.

Instead of decorating at work for Halloween, our section is holding a competition to see whose team can decorate for a NOT HALLOWEEN theme. Before I had my break from work, I was taking stuff into work everyday on the bus and my desk has Disney characters, stuffed animals and baby blocks on it. I still have a HUGE bag of toys to take in with me tomorrow as the judging is on Friday. Lots of people have commented on how colourful my desk is...and I've really enjoyed doing it. Anyway, getting back to work will be a highlight for me, although I've enjoyed my mini-break, which has given me the opportunity to get back on the forums. So, I'll pop in when I can, but I'll be thinking of you all as this is the only place I can be the real me. Unfortunately I won't be able to contribute to the Tuesday topic as it'll be back to the early to bed and early to rise routine. Take care everyone.
