My weekly exercise in gratitude – three things that are making me smile – feel free to steal this idea with wild abandon and fill your blog [or Twitter account or Facebook page or diary or life in general] with happiness.
First, Knit Night. I’ve started going to the Thursday evening knitting and crochet group at Red Apple Yarn in Lampeter. Chatting and knitting (or crocheting – that’s allowed too) in a wool shop, what could be nicer?
Second, an afternoon nap. Normally staying awake all day is fairly easy for me, but Max was ill on Tuesday night, so I spent several of the early hours of Wednesday morning sitting up with him and crocheting. He’s stopped vomiting and has perked up now and both of us benefitted from a couple of hours sleep on Wednesday afternoon. He’s currently snoozing under my chair, but I’m managing to keep my eyes open today.
Third, sending parcels. Finally this week, I’ve managed to send Laurie the bag she won in the give-away and another parcel to a friend who is very unwell (contents to be revealed once it has been received). Each parcel also contained a hand-written letter, something else that makes me happy.
So, those are three things making me smile this week. What is making you happy?
