My yellow rose is out and looking glorious!

[magie06]

I have to say that I love to see the sun shine. I think I'm at my best when the weather is glorious.

A worry I was talking about last night is that Jess has no career path sorted in her mind. But Si reminded me that she’s in a job she enjoys where she’s made great friends, and gets paid really well

Ooo this is a lovely one for today :)

[Strugglingmum]

Today I'm heading to the north coast for an overnight stay. Not so much green space but plenty of beach

[Paula]

That’ll do ;)

Day 8:

https://i.ibb.co/GTk9QHs/IMG-0846.png (https://imgbb.com/)

I listen to the radio a LOT (specifically Greatest Hits radio - they play 70s, 80s and 90s music. Doesn’t age me at all ;)) as music and singing badly to all my favourite songs calms and distracts me!

[Paula]

Day 9:

Ooo this is a good one! So, what made you all happy recently?

[Strugglingmum]

Walking on the beach.
What has made you happy recently Paula?

[Jaquaia]

Getting on to my course

[Paula]

Walking on the beach.
What has made you happy recently Paula?

I got 3 compliments this morning - 2 for my shoes, 1 for my dress :)

[Jaquaia]

You do have fab shoes though!

[Paula]

Thank you (blush)

Well, I’m off later to have tea and cake with my twin nephews, who turned 18 a few days ago :)

[Strugglingmum]

Sunday roast here today.

[SJW180]

I wouldn’t describe it as good food but popped out for breakfast at Toby Carvery this morning.

[Paula]

Day 12:

https://i.ibb.co/vVhvC0X/IMG-0858.png (https://imgbb.com/)

A letter?? Who writes letters nowadays?? Still, would mean something to someone

[Jaquaia]

Magie writes letters!!!! A has kept the one she got from her!

[SJW180]

I do write letters occasionally.

[magie06]

I write letters. I write to my nephew in Canada, my nephew and niece in Oz, and my niece in England and my nephew in France. If I'm sending a parcel I always put a letter in too.

[Paula]

I stand corrected :)

[Paula]

Day 13:

https://i.ibb.co/99g7bVK/IMG-0860.png (https://imgbb.com/)

Thankfully, I have a husband who helps me in this :)

[SJW180]

If it wasn’t for my sense of humour I don’t know where I’d be

[Strugglingmum]

Day 13:

https://i.ibb.co/99g7bVK/IMG-0860.png (https://imgbb.com/)

Thankfully, I have a husband who helps me in this :)

My husband also helps me laugh at things..... and myself!!

[magie06]

I was just telling Aisling that the banks went on strike in the summer of '76 and my sister brought us to the beach every single day. She couldn't believe it. The sister who brought us, is now a clean freak, and Aisling can't imagine how she copped with the sand in her car for the summer.

[Paula]

That’s such a lovely memory!

My honeysuckle is going wild atm. It looks and smells beautiful!

[SJW180]

Mine isn’t exactly something I can see so much as feel. The love between me and Talia. She really is beautiful and the may she looks at me sometimes melts my heart.

[Strugglingmum]

My pink rose is so beautiful just now

[Paula]

Oh, this is a hard one. I’m trying but it’s a work in progress. What about you?

[Strugglingmum]

Although I have a broken ankle I'm blessed to have people to look after me

[magie06]

We've had very heavy rain, but I don't need to water my plants! (rofl)

[Paula]

Day 19:

https://i.ibb.co/NTfWNW5/IMG-0866.png (https://imgbb.com/)

Ermmmm

[Strugglingmum]

Mmmm have to pass on this one unless hopping to the greenhouse counts!!

[magie06]

Does hanging out the washing count?

[Paula]

Sure, I suppose…

[magie06]

(rofl)

Day 20:

https://i.ibb.co/s9nR0XK/IMG-0867.png (https://imgbb.com/)

I’m looking forward to seeing what you can all come up with for this one!

[Strugglingmum]

I loved jigsaws as a child so I think I will dig some out of the cupboard and have a go.

[Jaquaia]

I've kept up with most of my childhood activities!

Not a childhood activity but I'm going to share anyway as it's joyful June and brought me joy! We've just had a mumma duck and her ducklings wander into the garden from the village pond!

[Paula]

Awwww

I want to show my appreciation to the teams, both here and on Facebook, who give up their time and energy to help others by ensuring DWD continues to run smoothly

[Jaquaia]

I want to show my appreciation for how you've stepped up to keep Suzi's baby going.

[Paula]

Thank you (blush)

As I was at work today, smiling at people is part of the job description ;)

I've only seen the Amazon prime man. I did smile though

[Paula]

Day 30:

https://i.ibb.co/LnCVrcx/IMG-0886.png (https://imgbb.com/)

What a lovely one to do!

I’ll start with my faith, Si, the kids, my dogs, mum and dad, brother and his family, my voluntary work at the hospital….. and this is a list I can easily keep adding to

[SJW180]

Music. Right now that is the one thing that is keeping me grounded. Not much of a list I know but I suppose there are many different genres I could list.
