    Friday Fab 5s: Friday 29 December

    Well, it’s Friday! And the last one of 2023! So, in a change to the scheduled billing, I’m asking you the following question….. (imagine it written in the air with sparklers )

    WHAT 5 (ish) EVENTS HAVE HAPPENED IN YOUR LIFE DURING 2023 THAT HAVE BROUGHT YOU JOY AND/OR HAPPY MOMENTS?

    While ‘had dinner with the new King’ could be momentous, ‘had a tea party with the kids’ is also wonderful!

    But, please remember, strictly NO negatives, as these will be sent straight to the sin bin.

    Mine to start:

    - so much love and support from the mod teams both on Facebook and the forum
    - my wisteria flowered beautifully
    - a very special person in the DWD family is recovering from a serious illness
    - started my degree, and got 90% on my first marked assignment
    - my eldest came back from Rome with a rock on her ring finger (is it too soon to be searching for my outfit?)

    Your turn!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    ~ A lovely Christmas dinner
    ~ A quiet day watching Crimbo movies
    ~ After a couple of nights without sleep I’m back to feeling human again
    ~ I received a message from my eldest lad Christmas morning
    ~ I’ve had a pretty chilled festive period which suits me just fine.
