'Happy Moments' April 26th

Anonymous

Welcome to this weeks regular post. As usual, we're going to encourage positive thinking, share good news and think about gratitudes. I hope you'll join me.

So, a big gratitude for me this week is to have my health return after a nasty stomach virus the week before. My energy is coming back and my appetite is definitely back...therefore, a big gratitude to my mum for the huge chunk of delicious home baked tea loaf that she gave me. Yum!

This weekend I have been working, so a happy moment is getting back on schedule with work, plus I'm rather enjoying the order that I'm working on...and I'm getting paid for it this week, yay!

Finally, biggest happy moment of the week...My son told me I'm cool...yes that's right...COOL!! Me? Who knew?? Apparently, I act young (I keep up with all the latest chart music, and act like a big kid :)) and he says I look young too, so doubly great!. Anyway it made my week

So over to you. Don't forget photos and links if you want.

Glad you're over your tummy bug and are catching up on your work, I bet that was a worry in itself. How lovely of DS son to notice how cool you are, he must be so proud having a cool mum.

Work is still crap, we are still short staffed so I'm having to do the before school club shift and I am not a morning person so it's screwing with my sleep patterns and I am grumpy and miserable. With that in mind I am really enjoying my weekend lie ins! Yesterday I had another theatre trip this time to the Belgrade in Coventry to see Joseph. One of the little girls who used to attend my out of school club was in the chorus so we couldn't miss that and today we've been to my brothers for a yummy lunch x

Ugh, pre-school club. I'm not too bad in the mornings myself, but I don't think I'd like that early either. Thank goodness for weekend lie ins eh! I hope the short staff problems gets sorted for you. It was nice to get to see another play though, I'll bet, and you can't beat a lovely Sunday lunch, especially when someone else cooks it

Diane I am so glad you are feeling better and I agree with your son. You are definitely cool.

I made a quick trip to Hamilton (where I use to work/live) for 30 years last week. It was nice to see the old places and I did some shopping. This week coming up we are going away for 4 days to Toronto and I am very excited. We are staying right across from my favourite Yoga Studio and near good shopping.

The weather is warming up. Very thankful for that!

I'm glad you're better, Diane! I had fun shopping with my daughter today. She took me to get new ideas for makeup, and I helped her buy clothes. Then I forced myself to go to a birthday party I didn't want to go to--but I wanted to acknowledge the birthday girl--and had a good time! Had a very interesting discussion with a nun:-)

So glad that you are over your stomach bug, Diane. I would rather have a month of colds rather than one day of tummy trouble.
Glad, too, that you are enjoying your work. As for being deemed cool by your son, that must be the highest compliment from a young lad to his mum - so lovely.

I'm happy that I managed to debut two new spring tops this weeks. It felt so good having something new to wear after buying very little last spring/summer. I also enjoyed a lovely lunch out yesterday with DH, followed by a nice long walk to burn off the dessert (I hope!).

Have a good week.

Style Fan, I'll bet it was nice going round your old haunts. the Toronto trip sounds fun too. I'm glad your weather is warming up. After two weeks of glorious weather, we've actually gone the opposite and it's really chilly now.

You know, Adelfa, It's great when you end up enjoying something you didn't really want to attend,. I'm pleased you had a good time at the party, did you try out the new make up for it? The discussion with a nun sounds intriguing

Summer, isn't it nice to pop on something new and to feel refreshed by it? Glad you enjoyed your new purchases and also how nice to get out for lunch. I always have dessert BTW!

DH fetched DS#2 home from uni. Mid week he got his marks and his graduation with a BScNursing is confirmed! He is buckling down to study for his nursing licensing tests, and perusing job opportunities, using our home as his base of operations.

DH and I had a fun 'escape! weekend at a nearby resort. Excellent food and accommodations. It was part of a skill development weekend for Bridge players. We had a blast with a great bunch of people.

The local garden center opened this weekend! A sure sign of spring.
