What is making you happy today?

[Starrlight]

I found a Northern American Toad outside the house and we are taking care of it until Spring when we will let it go in a perfect nature spot with many trees and a stream. My youngest named it Toady.

Very interesting find! That is perfect spot to put him/her back!

Toady.... that's great!Today I'm in my sunroom listening to snow melt. It's so peaceful until a giant chunk falls off the roof. That's a bit startling.

Have a good day

💗🐸 This is making me smile... I used to chase my baby brother with frogs/toads ( when we were 4 & 2 ?). I'm sure you guys will take good care of Toady.Right now I'm enjoying the quite in the office... only one here right now. We have our zoom game night tonight so looking forward to that.

[Starrlight in reply to melbrown]

Have fun tonight 😊 such nice memories you have

[jessicjames]

Umm. Nothing is making me happy as much as I'm excited today. I read some new year's mental health resolutions and just couldn't wait to apply them. mangoclinic.com/top-18-soci... I think I've lost my sensitivity to depression and anxiety. My tolerance level is minus now. I feel like crying over little matters. But this too shall pass. The best thing I read today that makes me happy is the way people are healing others with their words! God Bless!

[Starrlight in reply to jessicjames]

(((((((Hug))))))))) me too I’m starting my resolutions early. Starting tomorrow morning I will run when I wake up and I’ll just keep doing this I hope automatically every day without thinking hmm should I run today, I’ll just do it. What are the resolutions you’re making?

[jessicjames in reply to Starrlight]

Aww that's so sweet of you. Warm hugs! I'm going to follow resolutions shared by Expert#3 for good mental health in the article shared above. I think they are pretty cool And gonna make my own too. I want to do something to get rid of my anxiety. I'm just so tired.

Can I be 1/2 happy? I’ve had 1/2 sleep, 1/2 exercise (attempted but the old body said nope not today, but I get brownie points for trying, I’ll try again tomorrow). I’m happy I only used a short period of time to pity party afterwards. 😂

We get back down to frigid cold tomorrow night through the weekend. 66 today so I’m making the most of it. Easy task, blowing more leaves. 🍂🍁🍂🍁 They are almost completely done falling. Happy about that, that counts right?

Hope you’re having a great day Starrlight. 🌺💜🌺

Ps. I catch lizards in the summertime. Catch and release. 😂😂😂

[Sillysausage234 in reply to Hidden]

I’m happy to see you put in so much effort .....it all counts ....ps lizard pics please .

[Hidden in reply to Sillysausage234]

Thanks Silly, I tried hard to make shiz happen today. A for effort?

I do have some lizard pics, I’ll have to see about rounding those up. 🦎

[Starrlight in reply to Sillysausage234]

I once had velvet geckos ... that video made me laugh 🤭

[Sillysausage234 in reply to Starrlight]

I need some in my life 😀🦎

[Hidden in reply to Sillysausage234]

Something special about lizards. 🦎🦎💜

At my other house they would get on the window screens and drive my cats crazy.

[Dolphin14 in reply to Hidden]

Those give me the creeps.

[Hidden in reply to Dolphin14]

Yeah I thought everyone would tell me i am creepy or gross for catching them. I’m okay with that. 😁😂

[Dolphin14 in reply to Hidden]

HahaYa I remember many trips to Florida. Watching them run by or just being stuck places....

I'm glad you enjoy them

[Hidden in reply to Dolphin14]

I’m not catching Komodo Dragons. 😂 These are much much smaller. 😂😂😂

[Dolphin14 in reply to Hidden]

Lmao! Anxiety makes them appear much bigger lol

[Hidden]

Oh what a cool pic! Toady is so lucky to be fostered by you and your family ❤️

What is making me happy today are the lovely people I've met on this site who are giving me some serious giggles this morning, and my wonderful animals who are actually getting off their lazy tushies to play and be active today 😊

My cat's name is Olivia Mewton-John. She was very talkative this morning and I randomly started singing to her, 'If you're happy and you know it, say meow.' And she did! That made me happy.

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

😂

[Kkimm]

Lovely little story and great name. Right to the point.

[Reading_Rando]

As someone who loves animals I want to say that this post has made me happy today. People often don't give animals any thought. I'm glad Toady has a safe place to spend the winter.

[Starrlight in reply to Reading_Rando]

I’m happy that you are happy!

[Hidden]

Finished my Christmas and New Year shopping this morning I will possibly be able to relax now, lock the doors and pretend I am not around

BOB

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

😂 I do this I shut people out saying I’m still wrapping! What do you do to celebrate New Year ?

[Hidden in reply to Starrlight]

Very little Starrlight, we will have a couple of drinks when I do the first foot. Eat my sausage rolls and go to bed. When I was young New Year in the North East was celebrated more than Christmas.

What will you be doing for New Year ??
