Little things that have made you happy today

Tiny DGD wanting to take me home with her after a visit.

My GS bowling into the kitchen this afternoon and giving me the biggest New Year hug (before grandad - that's a first!).

My DD and DSIL presenting us with a beautiful granddaughter at 2.27am today. Our very first grandchild and she's beautiful

My twin grandchildren hiding in the toilet this afternoon as they did not want to go home after having spent a week here. The thing is they wil be back tomorrow evening as DD works on Tuesdays.

Congrats * LadyGracie* ,what a wonderful start to a New Year.

Congratulations, LadyGracie. You have many joys in store!

I've just been sent a moving e-card for New Year! Pretty, tacky and very cheering.

(Yesterday) my teenage grandaughter said to me 'You are a wonderful grandmother'

52 anniversary today. We will have a nice quiet day together

Thank you annsixty and Greyduster she fills me with joy already, I could burst!
Congratulations BBbevan enjoy your nice quiet day together, they're the best!

Happy anniversary, BBbevan and many more to follow! The thing that has made me happiest today has been bidding a not very fond farewell for another year to a seven foot Christmas tree that has blocked all the light out of our living room since it went up! DH's impulse buy! I am now sitting here, looking at the view again. Next year he had better have a strategy or he and said tree will end up outside!

todays highlight was DH offering to cook lunch [doesn't happen often] whilst I sat back with a sherry and listened to music.

Happy anniversary BBbevan. You don't sound old enough to have been married that long, you seem to have a youthful outlook on life!

Congratulations to Gracie too, you have years of fun ahead!

I've had an unexpectedly fabulous day. Got up late ( that's always a bonus for a bad sleeper) went into town bought my husband a jacket he's been longing for for the last three years £200 then just by chance looked in a jewellers and admired an eternity ring. My size just what I have been looking for for 20+ years £500. On my finger as we speak... result! had a lovely lunch in restaurant with wine. Visited son and family, welcomed with kisses and cup of tea. Perfect perfect day the best I've had for years.

I was a child brideshysal ?

I had a lovely chat with my SIL. We don't chat a lot so it was a nice surprise.

taking a lovely long walk in the cold crisp sunshine today, then coming home to a hot cuppa, the newspaper and sitting in the lounge to watch a film and having a Nana Nap!!!!

Exactly !!! Me too Carerof123

Well done*BBbevan*

A bright sunny winters day, a cheerful hairdresser being funny whilst I had a (rare) wash n blow dry. Reading the paper whilst cared for relative had a long nap, with bright sunshine still coming through the windows.

After experiencing some sort of RSI type pains in my arms in 2015 and not really been able to knit in in the last part of that year, I have just started knitting a hat with not too many problems. I had accupuncture early last year which really helped. I am taking it very carefully at present but I do feel more hopeful.
Some of this problem seems to be in the mind and I have to conciously control the tensing up.

Getting interesting letters about family history from a distant cousin in the US!

Accompanied DGD yesterday to a 4-year-old's birthday party.
