Thought I would start a nice thread. What made you happy today? I’ll go first!

My husband just rang me asking if I want some Karin Slaughter books that are going for 50p in their staff shop. I’m so happy that he remembers she is one of my favourite authors. I do love him 😁😍

My house went on the market today. I've accepted an offer before any details were even printed! It's such a weight off my mind, I feel I can breath again after months of worrying what to do for the best. Fingers crossed the sale goes through quickly with no hitches.

Wow, that was quick - even quicker than a friend of mine a year ago who agreed within a couple of days of going on the market. Hope it goes smoothly hereonin!
Wish we had had an decent offer anywhere nearly as quick as that ...
 
Today I brought a big stick form a fish specialist pet shop for my sisters turtles I didn't find the perfect stick for Spirit (my corn snake) but the turtles needed one too. I understand how strange it is to be like a kid in a candy store rushing past all the beautiful fish to get to the stick section and spending a good 20 minutes looking at every stick then spending £25 on a twisted piece of wood but somehow I really felt like I was treating myself.
 
Thanks @VickiA I'm not actually moving anywhere. I moved to Bristol 8 years ago when I needed a lot of medical treatment at a specialist unit here. I'd had tenants in my house while I stayed with a friend, originally for two years, the arrangement worked so well for everyone so I stayed. The tenants have now moved on so I've decided to sell up. The 140 mile round trip to check on the house was getting to much for me.
It's broken my record of 4 days @Qualcast&Flymo . It's not always been that quick for me though. In the early 90s it took 10 months and in 2009/10 it took over a year! It was just the right time in the right place for someone who had already got a buyer and was on the agents list.

I totally understand! I’m like that with wood/plants etc for my fish tank! I hate shopping normally but when it’s for my pets I blooming love it!
 
Putting the pedal to the metal in the floods. Tidal wave 🌊 ( not fast enough to aquaplane) not a complete idiot 🤣
 
Sorry I was too hungry to take a pic when it was full! I've caught my daughter's lousy cold so was feeling sorry for myself at work but chips & beans for lunch have cheered me up again.

Has a UFO landed? Any aliens? 👽👽

The majority agreed they thought it was a spaceship! No aliens as the site had been cleared before they got to school, although one came up with the idea that there could be camouflaged aliens, a bit like chameleon's!
For all the hard days working with children it's these days that make it worth while.
 
Nothing until I got home. Complete right off of a day today at work, oh and uni students stink to high heavens 🤢

This grumpy old girl and my other animal babies 💞 took Callie off lead for our usual daily walk she did great, played with effie with the dangly toys, spent a couple of hours with the pigs cleaning them out and then just talking to them while they ran around and came up for kisses 💞 watching the tortoise roam around, cuddles with Princess after tramadol when she just curled up under my chin and chilled 💞 it's just been a really nice day with the furbies 💞 I could've napped to make up for the fact that I don't sleep at night much with the kids and the fact I've been child free as Thursday term time they're alll in pre school/school now and it's the only time I'm ever without children but I wanted some time with the furbies without the small hoomans, it was really lovely 💞 I'm shattered now but so worth it 😍 the small hoomans will be back any second and i cant wait to see them and for caos to resume! 😍

Today giving Jezzy floof a clean fleecy pee pad in her house made me happy, I had to finish drying it on the radiator and she had a bit of a wait but then it was all warm for her and there were lots of floofy happy sounds when she discovered her cold damp poopy pee pad from yesterday had suddenly become dry and clean and toasty warm on her floofy old paws :)
 
What made me happy today was... When I got in Dot begged for grass, she heard the front door open and assumed I have grass. Anyway... She went to do a really loud desperation wheek, I see her abdomen go in and she let out a massive hissing grunt instead🤣. It was like when someone goes to whistle loudly and totally fails. Bless her
 
I’ve just arranged a trip down South to see my family in a couple of weeks. That has really made me happy (and them, too).
Son2A also told me yesterday he passed all his recent exams at University and got good grades.
Plenty to smile about.
