What made you happy today?

So for those of you who don’t know, I spend most of my time (around work and the animals) building and racing cars, showing cars and restoring classics. This year I’ve been asked to be a brand ambassador for the company Autoglym (very exciting) 😁

today (made me very happy), they sent me a lovely gift box of goodies, as a welcome 🥰🥰

Congratulations - very exciting! 😀 Roll on when car shows can happen again!
 
Pink hair that actually worked properly yesterday. Going to order the brighter pink and the violet one too for when this one washes outView attachment 167038
That's really pretty, its like "Rose Gold" is it called that shade? I've been tempted to go pink myself but not sure how it would work out, and the students on zoom would be harsh critics!

It's called Rose Peach. It's Flowerology so a temporary colour mask and very conditioning (it's curly hair friendly). I'm going for cherry blossom and sweet violet next for when this washes out :))
 
I am very happy with BT tonight. My broadband has been dropping out over the last few weeks. Not good when Son no 3 is having to do his Uni studies at home. I got in contact with BT on livechat and they are sending me their all singing all dancing new Home Hub 2 worth £200 +£9.99 postage for free! My current Home Hub is so old it's almost out of the Ark! I have been assured I'll be able to get wifi in every room too as at the mo I can't. It'll be a novelty using the laptop in the Dining Room and in the upstairs bedroom (I live in a converted bungalow). Of course the fun comes when trying to connect everything up though. Laptops and phones are easy enough, but then there are the TV's for Neflix, Amazon Prime etc, the printer ......

Haha, hubby and I were like that when we upgraded to BT fibre. It's only 2 of us in the house but we got so many gadgets to connect. 🤣🤣
 
My daughter got her first university offer.

Doesn't sound like a win, the idea of her moving out, but this one's only an hour away by train from our nearest station which is a 10 min drive from the house, so she could even nip home overnight.

And it's a tiny little arts college where she'll get much more individual help than in a huge uni where the lecturers wouldn't know her name 😀
 
Not really made me happy more gave me a laugh!
I've been having left-over marmalade from Christmas this week - it came in a very nice hamper with chutneys and stuff... I really liked the taste of it so googled the website and wanted to order some more. I can't because it's a xmas-only but - here's the good bit - I looked at the ingredients and - 1 glug of liqueur! No wonder it tasted so good! So every morning I've been having 4 slices of toast with a nice dollop of marmalade and feeling happy the rest of the morning! By the evening I'm wondering why I've got a headache!
I sniffed it in disbelief because I hadn't tasted any alcohol but then - as clear as day - strong smell of liqueur! I'm so suprised that I didn't taste it! :blink::san:

Good luck.
 
I joined an online sewing class.
It felt like a really casual social event, and at the same time I made possibly one of my favourite things ever.
Plus the kids came in part way through and even they were impressed (they are teenagers so are rarely impressed with Mummy's 'loud' clothing makes).
 
I had a gorgeous coffee mug in the post today, it has a picture of baby guinea pigs on it. I know it came from someone on the forum as the address label had piggieminder on it. There are only 2 or 3 forum members that know my address so I can narrow down who sent it but I'm not sure. Whoever it was thank you very much, I love it, it made me smile.
 
Went for a walk today - it tried to snow a bit but didn’t come to anything.

Lovely photos 😍
I really miss sand under my feet and the dogs miss running and chasing on the sand.
I must admit I wasn’t barefoot on the beach today :D but I do like to feel the sand under my feet as well.

Priscilla says what will make her happy is the return of the corner tunnel.
It’s in the laundry - 24 hour piggy occupancy (almost) ensured that a close encounter with the washing machine was essential

Haha. Poor Priscilla! Although it sounds as though it might have walked itself to the washing machine soon so might be for the best! It will be back soon I’m sure 😁

It will.
After an uncertain start Priscilla has claimed it as hers. I did see Micah run right through once but unless she was out eating that’s where Priscilla stayed - right in the middle of the bend :D
