Little things that have made you happy today

Finding an old cross stitch Christmas card that was made by my late SIL. She was always sat with her cross stitch patterns. One to keep I think.

At my slimming club Christmas party I was given an award for being 'inspiring '.

I went to Tesco this morning and all the staff were friendly and helpful

Singing carols in our local National Trust property this afternoon with our choir. Good audiences and lovely biscuits with our tea.

We visited my niece this afternoon and then DD and GS turned up too, which was a lovely surprise. My niece is GS's honorary granny .

Icing the gingerbread biscuits that i have made for the grand children who are coming for tea tomorrow afternoon. Just hope they like them!!!!

Brilliant news Lona!

And Alie - whooppee!!

Shame about your dog GA, you must be bursting to tell!!

I've finished shopping - I hope! Though I'm sure I've forgotten something as it all fits in the inside fridge!

My ds came home from a three monthly appointment in Durham, to see the optician who monitors the results from my son's special eye mask. His eyesight is still stable! So the good results are continuing.
His life seems to be turning round now, and he is happy at last.

The light bulb posts came first.
But since then I have had a visit from my littlest grandson!

Marmight my new ? is poorly so we can't collect him from the rescue centre until the vet gives him the all-clear. Looks likely now to be on the 30th as the vet doesn't work over Christmas. I'm so excited, but as he's still a secret from a certain family member preparations are all going on behind closed doors.

gardening all afternoon in the sunshine - with the two dogs ( borrowed for 3 weeks to allow a young family to settle the new baby in).

The lightbulb post on Chat by Granny23. It sent me out to the shops with a smile on my face! ?

Family are all coming for a day next week. I'm so pleased and so appreciative of all the hard work they put in to get a day off together.

Congratulations Auntieflo. How wonderful to have two in one year.By the way,I suppose you mean our local Tescos.I wasnt so lucky !

I managed to get a parking place at Tesco, to finish the shopping. DH made me a very welcome coffee when I got home, and he was listening to Andrea Bocelli, who often makes me weepy, not in a bad way though. He has been really poorly, but must be feeling a bit better, hence the music.
But I am feeling extra sentimental since Tuesday, when my eldest grandaughter and her DH visited and gave us the wonderful news that we shall become great grand parents, again next year. Two in one year, greedy, moi! ?

There are some lovely Happy moments on this thread.
GA. Both had me 'leaking'. One with emotion, the other with laughter . How's your new family member doing? ?

Your DD singing I mean Marmight - not the letterbox thing.

Marmight - how lovely, I think that would have produced leaking eyes in me.

My Glaucoma is now stable and I haven't got to go back for 6 months.

Finally shopping all finished ..

Iced the Christmas cake and it looks OK.

I saw this lovely video of an autistic child in a special school

Spent time with eldest grandson today who showed me a photo of his girlfriend -he is 16 and she is his first girlfriend. He described their visit to Brighton and lunch in a Sushi Bar as well as a visit to the 360i - first love

A beautifully wrapped Christmas gift from my boss....most unexpected.

Our daughter bought us tickets for Cinderella at the London Palladium for Christmas and we have been to a matinee this afternoon and it was amazing!
