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 🙂

Haha @outlander! I had to go back (it feels like a million years ago now!) to have a look at that one again. Next time you need to take photos for someone of something at the supermarket you can remember how totally normal it is to do 😆 (and a big yay for @Sans911 💗)

Hope you enjoy your big event and few days away @Former-Member ☺

Thanks @CheerBear,
The highlight for me today was having some of our adult kids come for dinner.
Lots of laughs and a lovely shared meal 😍

The highlight of my day today has been getting lost in the giantness of the sky. It's looked like this in different colours all day. Not sure why I found it so captivating today, but I have ☺

Re: The Highlight of Your Day thread

The highlight of my day was that I bought myself a knot cushion!!!!!

This was me in Big W when I found the knot cushions.

And here is my brand new knot cushion.

I decided on a light grey one. It is SO COOL. It's like the most velvety giant fidget toy ever!!! It isn't super squishy though @CheerBear. And it is smaller than it looked in the picture. It is exactly the size of my bum - turtle-bum is a standard unit of measurement you know. I am thinking that I'm going to use it to sit on to practice my mindfulness stuff.

The warning on the tag made me giggle:

Yeah, right, as though a knot cushion isn't a toy!!!! And before anybody says anything, I'm pretty sure the "keep away from children 3 years and under" bit only refers to chronological age, not mental age, so I'm allowed to have it!

I super love my new knot cushion. It's my reward for not strangling anyone on Tricky Tuesday.

Hmmm...who can I share the joy of my new knot cushion with... @CheerBear @Catcakes @Shaz51 @Former-Member @NikNik @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member

@Phoenix_Risingfirstly, Kermit ALWAYS makes me smile

I love your knot cushion and might have to take a trip to big w myself. The tag can be removed with some sharp scissors so there are no warnings any longer!!
