Re: Moments that make you happy
I'll join you, Shiraz in hand, roast in oven, storm outside. Totally struggling to find positives today after getting one of those dreadful phone calls us expats fear.
So today's happiness is the honesty and love of kids, they really ground you with reality and without complex thinking.
That, and the fact that the 90kg dog has finally stopped dropping napalm bomb farts five days after eating 20 raw potatoes from veggie patch. I can breathe!

Re: Moments that make you happy
I met my partner's newest grand baby this weekend. The kids live 3 hours from us so we don't get to see them very often, but it's lovely when we do. They've accepted me into their family with open arms which makes me smile.

Happiness is ... Finding a son still needs his mum, no matter how old he's getting.
Happiness is, to get to know your new neighbours that just moved in,
Happiness is, finding unbelievable community spirit!
Just my input for today!

OH went to the NSW State Titles Karate competition......and came home with a Gold medal for sparring (Kumite) and a bronze for patterns ( Kata.)
He was in the 45-54 age group (he is 52) and so now qualifies for Nationals!!
Very proud wife. It was only his second competition.
