What made you happy today?

I ended up with an unexpected day at home (my week has been rearranged ) so I tackled the spare room. It had become the breeding ground for things no one else knew where to put. So I had a day clearing, sorting and tidying. And I re-claimed the floor space and also found a bed in there !
 
was sat eating in a restaurant with my SO, the waitress came over and said the man over there has paid for your food and you’re free to leave whenever, he doesn’t know if you’re together but you work well together and deserve it. Made my entire week :)

Fantastic effort Vicki - I must remember to use my next unexpected day off so wisely.
And you may want to keep that spare bed free around the time of the Potteries Christmas fair - I still owe you a drink :))

That is the loveliest story so far.
What a wonderful thing to have happen.
 
I've been wanting some nano fish and/or shrimp of some sort for a while now but haven't been able to justify spending on a tank etc.
Today my Mums boyfriend popped round with a gift, this free 34ltr tank with light that he had spare. Just needs a filter, gravel, plants and decor, a few weeks to cycle and stuff and it'll be good to go! It has been over a decade since I've had fish and I'm so excited :)

I help out at school on Thursday mornings. That’s what made me happy today. Although it was challenging because sometimes they wanted help all at the same time! And I’m happy that my daughter did the challenge that was set for their maths 😁
 
I made time to let the piggies have 2 hours of floor time each pair today, they loved having so long to run around and explore between naps under the cupboard. I deep cleaned 2 cages, did health checks and weigh ins, one cage left to deep clean tomorrow (the easiest one) and then I can be a bit lazy over the weekend and just poop pick.
 
Today I'm happy that I had meetings with 3 really lovely students who needed my help with various things and I really think I was able to help them, one even emailed to thank me afterwards, its really rewarding when half an hour of my time can reassure someone or help them understand something they've been worrying and puzzling over for a while :)

That is such a lovely tribute to you both and such a kind act.
My heart is truly warmed by this
 
I'm happy because I have cleaned out my piggies hutch today and the run will be done tomorrow. Also I have a skip I can chuck the contents of the hutch in (bagged of course!).
Your mention of having a skip reminded me of this birthday card my youngest gave me a couple of years ago :xd:

That I appear to have changed the hard disk drive on my son's laptop for something called an SSD, that will make it work a little faster, followed all the instructions and so far it's working! Longest part, working out how to get the back of the damn thing, hidden extra screws had me muttering impolite words!
 
You Havnt gone down the hairy slug brow route have you?

That's dangerous to ask when you don't know :))

Chance would be a fine thing. I am of the generation of wafer thin eyebrows so overplucked for years so they don't grow well now. Done well to get them to normalise eyebrows but definitely not slugs on my face :)) she's gone a touch darker this time but just so they will last that extra week or so
 
Climbing into bed - which is always my favourite time of the day - new bedding on today... I love it! Having a super king sized bed - bedding is very expensive and this would have cost me £90 for the duvet cover & £10 per pillowcase... got it in a sale for £57 inc the pillowcases .. got 2 cushions from Primark for £9 & the blanket was £15 from B&M ... 20200307_170555.webp20200313_132759.webp20200313_132753.webp
 
I helped a friend of mine break into his home today. Without going into too much detail, he was unable to get past his door (it's a flat, so no back door) and I happened to be able to help. It's nice to feel useful.

Also said neighbour just gave me the garlic bread from his takeaway because I said I wasn't hungry enough to make food tonight. Double the win!
 
Today I am super happy that my favourite junior piggy whisperer is 9 years old, and he had a lovely birthday day out with his mum while we looked after his little brother- then when he got home he LOVED his bday present from me of a junior electronics set! Such a geeky gift but he's a cool geeky kid and once he saw circuit diagrams and LEDs he was just glowing with happy geekiness and trying to make all sorts of fancy circuits :)
