What made you happy today?

What on Earth, people? It's still snowing in Estonia! You guys are keeping the sun from us :D
 
We are breaking records here in the UK with April frosts... the frostiest for 60 years! But today it rained in my bit of the UK for the first time this month and I am very happy for the garden. Also the streets in town smell a lot better!

I was very happy this morning too, because the rain was enough to refill our water butts. They were starting to get low even though I'm not watering things a huge amount.

There is about half an inch of water in our water butt. It rained here for all of 5 minutes today. We were on the edge of a huge thunderstorm.
 
These three were all excited today which made me happy! Lexie was excited about maths lessons and her homework! Lillie was excited because it was school photo day and she wanted her hair straightened and luna was excited as it was her first day at the childminders since the first lockdown! We use her 15h there rather than a nursery! Also I had a day just me and the pets for the first time in forever, I'm regretting not napping but I did do a lot of housework, spend extra time with the pets, walk the dog alone and get all piggies nails clipped without interruption 😂💕 and I drank a hot coffee! 😁 Missed them though and didn't quite know what to do with myself 😂

Drove 20 mins to visit a place I have heard a lot about. Absolutely loved it and the woods there were just full of bluebells. The sun was shining and it was just me and Archer (we rarely have time just the two of us). It was so good for the soul.

Well went out on new boat today, the sun was shining and managed to see two seals just basking around in the sea. Had a really lovely day and Mr Buffin (III) is brilliant! It’s even got a double sun pad for summer, a cabin with two beds and a porta pottie, chuffed to bits!

Beautiful day by the sea - not quite as bracing as Wednesday

I'm happy today that I have heard that my elderly Aunty has FINALLY moved from Manchester down to Cornwall this week. She has moved that far because my on of her daughters lives there. My Aunty has been on her own since my Uncle passed away in January last year.
 
The lady that came to do my meds tonight - just as she's about to leave, she suddenly exclaims "I've done it again." "Ay...what?" She's punching in the code for my meds safe and says, "Just wait. You'll see."
She locked her keys in my meds safe. :))
 
Congratulations! Who's her role model?!

Clipped Zara and Louise's nails with no casualties. Doing Zara was akin to 4 bitey rounds of WWF or possibly St George and the Dragon. She got a super cheek-to-cheek cuddle for being so brave and instead of fighting her way out she gave a big, angry sniff but then snuggled in for a bit. I braced for a second battle but luckily remembered to flip Louise over: she immediately 'played dead' so I got the lot in under a minute! George and Flora can wait... that's enough for one day.

It always feels like epic success getting piggy nails done!

The Ever Beautiful Betsy's nails are a nightmare to clip. The front ones have twisted with age and she is very happy to use her teeth freely on my hand. Meg just hates her nails being clipped and screams blue murder and Patsy moves her feet all the time so that's not easy either. My Cutey Pie Rainbow Piggy Dennis's nails were easy to clip as he was so laid back I could do anything and he wasn't phased and My Handsome Silver Fox Rainbow Piggy Christian just sat there and let me clip away. Christian wasn't always so relaxed. At first I had to wrap him up like a Sausage Roll and it was def a 2 person job!
 
I was chuffed the other day as got all four pigs done without too much biting (Luigi and Cleo!)! Jasper was fairly good but I hate his black nails!
And my beautiful Aliona had hers done, then slumped on my chest and fell asleep with me stroking her for 20 whole minutes!:luv: The first time in 16 months since here she’s ever really enjoyed a cuddle and had her eyes closed, I had a tear in my eye!:wub:
But typically phone was on charge in the other room so I don’t have the proof!
