Not The Trivial things that make you happy

A call out of the blue this morning from a friend of a friend in London, and someone very well known in his field, asking if he can cite me in a book he's working on. It's nice to be remembered.

The flattery helps too. :

Chilling in my living room to the view of my dog's fluffy behind as he does his people watching from his perch on the couch.

Out for a run & passing walkers who don't hear you frightening the bejaysus out of them.

Interrupting the intellectual discussion I'm having with the dog! I just knew ye runners love scaring us energetically challenged people.

I'd join in with talking to your dog.

Friendly animals are great.

This made me smile. It must be great to be a well looked after dog! Or any pet really, I think this when my cat comes home and there is a big show of greeting him and cuddling him and kissing him and telling him how great he is. Then he gets food and goes for a sleep in bed. I just want that life.

My animals are so spoilt. It's ridiculous And the dog and the baby are best friends. Loads of secret conversations between them. And she sneaks food down the side of her high chair to him

Made a beef stir fry with noodles for dinner. Had a Chinese sauce to go with it and it was nicer than I thought it would be.

It's a deal, as long as you keep the defences of spinsterhood to yourself!

Our daughter is 5 weeks old now and I'm so proud of our 2 year old dog for how good he is with her. He's so protective of her. He's the most affectionate lovely dog but he can get a bit over excited let's say sometimes so we wondered how he might be with her but he learned quickly that she was a wee baby and quickly became enamoured with her. He regularly lies on his belly on the rug in the living room looking up at her in her crib through the bars and falling asleep watching her. If he thinks she's upset like with bad wind or that he whines and looks so worried about her. He's just been so good with her from the start and you can see already that there'll be a lovely bond there.

Yeah, proud daddy on both counts.

Happy happy happy at the thoughts of a tiny baby having a best friend already. I've had dogs all my life and they were often the only good and positive things in my life, when I had nobody or nothing else, I was never quite alone.

It makes me so happy thinking about kids growing up with the gift of an animals love.

The cool pictures thread here on boards. I just love it.

I've had a tin of paint lying around for a while that I have been wondering what to do with. Last night, I had an idea and wanted to put a bit of the paint on something to see what it would look like......

A bit of paint turned into using the entire tin of paint and doing something that I'm really proud of and after sparking loads of ideas!

Getting my hacked 3 money card refunded, they are putting the odd money on it, 1.01€ roughly. which means I have to pay to top it up again to round it off, making me more sustainable to hacking OR leave a company I despise with a passion with 1.01€ of my money, meaning I cant close the account.:eek::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Bought a pair of trousers on Amazon thinking it was the same as previous pair bought, in a different colour, only to realise they were a different style (very subtle difference) and didn't t fit the same at all.

Started the return procedure annoyed that my mistake would mean I had to pay postage and hassle of getting to a post office, only for them to say I don't have to return them and full refund has been made!

Amazon are amazing for that. I bought a few cases for my new phone a few weeks ago. One i opened and the packaging for the case was there but the case was not in it, got onto amazon and got a full refund without them asking for proof etc.

TH that I have a nice gp. It makes a change from being treated like a nuisance, and barely getting a word.
