Three things.....

I won't be around this weekend as the family are coming. Can I leave you with this thought...Can you think of three things that can make you feel better when you are down or low? These are mine

1 The community of crows nesting in the big oak tree

2 Next door's dog poking her head through the fence for an ear scratch

3 Plants in the garden starting to 'wake up'

Simple pleasures that cost nothing

Bye for now 🥰

Have you looked at the photos of people’s gardens in facebook.com/groups/6288051... which was set up by this group to cheer up people with GCA and PMR.

I'm not on FB. Long story short, I got stalked on there by someone from another forum that I ran a number of years ago. It got nasty so I deleted my account. I keep in touch with my family on WhatsApp now.

We set it up as a private group to try and stop that happening. It is just that we were able to set it up for free and it has reasonable software.

I'd still need to open a new FB account. I'm reluctant to go down that road again. Thanks though x

I know, I didn't want to sound churlish x

A very good thought and tip!

Online videos of laughing babies

Also, strangely, doing some tedious household chore, like cleaning the toilet - because it makes me feel so virtuous for the rest of the day.

My wonderful husband, time out birdwatching and yes seeing the garden come back to life.

Bees buzzing round the newly opened daffodils, my OH sorting out the vegetable seeds for this year, my grandson showing me his precious collection of seashells from last years Summer holiday.

Deer in the garden especially the young ones bounding around, the young children from over the road who’ve come to see both the cows at the end of of the garden and Mrs GnT. And hearing Johnny Cash on the radio as breakfast is prepared

All Good things...

We laughed, we cried, we ran through the house... We cuddled, we kissed and looked deep into each...

Three lines of numbers and letters.

Can anyone tell me why I am getting this with every message I get and what can be done to get rid...
