What made you happy today?

I went out on the bike for a few minutes. Just up and down our road, nothing fancy. It was nice to feel the wind in my hair and my gorgeous baby is still as stunning as ever. I’ve got a headache and was coughing at first but it was nice.

My son is now riding it. I won’t watch 😱
 
I am happy that the horrible lilac bedroom with the horrible frieze and the 2 sets of green curtains (that didn't match) on the non matching curtain poles with the broken lilac vertical blinds has finally gone! It is now a lovely powder blue with matching grey curtain poles and matching grey curtains. I love it!
 
Was reading a post from one of the local rescues about rat tickling. I had no idea that this is a real thing! Purdue University is offering a free certificate in rat tickling is anyone is interested. The young rats at the rescue were so excited to be tickled!
 
Had a cuddle with Sam when I fed him his veggie breakfast and he was happy-purring! Love him so much.
And I had a good nights sleep too because I put on a 10hr stream/water-sounds video when I went to bed, although my phone died way before the 10hrs, but I was already fast asleep so it didn’t matter.
 
I’ve finished marking and decided not to stress myself with finishing the girls’ hair. So I’ve done the front and now I’m going to knit and watch tv. I’m starting the second sock and want to see if I can finish the sleeve on my cardigan.image.webpimage.webp
 
Today I have spent time in the greenhouse, I have planted some seeds to try growing veg again, I think I am slightly earlier than I was last year so fingers crossed I might get a better result, although in fairness for a first attempt i was quite pleased with last year's crop, next is to dig over the veg patch and get it ready for all the things that say to sow outside now. 16151386729496206883290776901549.webp

So I am trying onions, runner beans and dwarf beans, cucumber, tomato, chilli, pepper and I've also planted a whole tray of sunflowers 🌻I have Salad leaves, little gems and rocket, they will hopefully be done during the week then in the veg patch I'm going for parsnips, carrots, beetroot and radish again. I am not a natural gardener but I'm going to keep trying.
 
Some indoor gardening here today too.
My first batch of chilli seeds have ben moved from the propagator and potted on, and the second batch of seeds are now in the propagator.

I promised myself I wouldn't get carried away with it this year after ending up with a ridiculous amount of plants last year, but so far that's not going well :lol:
 
What made me happy today was I finally managed to walk a mile in 15 minutes. Normal pace for me is a mile in 20 minutes. I last attempted to walk a mile in 15 minutes last week and did it in 17 minutes which I found very frustrating! I managed 2 miles plus a visit to the Post Office today in 39 minutes. That's the quickest ever! I wonder if I can walk any faster than that? Today I have done 13,000 steps!
 
Today I became a blood donor. I did go lightheaded after which I think was more about being overwhelmed as I used to have panic attacks at the sheer thought of needles and anything going under the skin. No panics today, I did it and I will do it all again in a few months. Really proud of myself
 
Priscilla’s spay went well and she is recovering very nicely.
She took about 10 ml of syringe feed this afternoon with enthusiasm so I’m happy she’s getting her appetite back and she’s much brighter today.
