Congratulations!
I suppose I can also announce that I'm 17 weeks pregnant, there must have been something in the water that week!

A random act of kindness by a stranger brought a smile to my face today.
I drove into the tiny car park of the shopping centre where the dry cleaners/ launderette, that we use, is, this morning. Not a space to be had, and two big vans near the entrance / exit meant there was very tight turning required in order to drive back out.
A guy walking by asked me if I wanted him to 'watch my back' and I gladly accepted.
I'm driving for years, so it wasn't that I had any fears of not being able to do it, but that little bit of help, by directing me, so that I could safely reverse back as far as possible, without fear of hitting anything, got me out of there much faster.
So thanks kind (and handsome) stranger, I really appreciated that small act of kindness. 0 -

When I went out at lunchtime there were two very serious-looking, suited men walking in front of me. There’s a big flight of steps up to reception and as we approached it, one nudged the other and said “3… 2… 1!!” and they both absolutely pegged it up the steps. It was so completely unexpected and it really made me laugh

I love when things like that happen! I was in a café in Paris one time and there was a couple in their thirties or forties there who were very good looking, very well dressed, very dry shítey looking (y'know, French looking, basically), and then I looked up and the man was doing this really goofy dance in his seat and pulling faces and the woman was just cracking up, neither of them gave a shíte about anything else. It was really sweet and all the more so for being so unexpected based on their appearance0 -

What made me smile was my first ever sleepover! :P :pac:
I'm thirty, therefore I have some age on me. I started a course a few weeks ago and made friends with some quite-a-bit younger than me women. One of them organised a sleepover for Friday night (with pizza, and snacks, and beer, and vodka, and pyjamas.) I'd never done anything like that but after some debate I decided to go.
It was an absolute blast. Sitting around in my most comfy clothes, chatting, nodding off, eating too much. It was all great. And the people were lovely, and her boyfriend was lovely, and it was all lovely.
What was even better was I got a good sleep in a comfortable bed and woke up to a house full of women, went down for breakfast and chatted about weddings and relaxed in my fat pants and it was peaceful and calm.
It made me realise a little that I don't have the best chats with my flatmate, and waking up to a group of people you can relax around and sit down with all while wearing your pyjamas is great. I was so chilled out afterwards, it really made me feel at ease with myself.0 -

THere was fierce bad fog near the customer site I was working in today this morning, and they gave me a ring to let me know and warn me to be careful on the drive.
I thought it was very thoughtful 0 -

Stumbling across a classic car meet today, the gentlemen were surprised that a female actually complimented the cars and knew what they were, I would hope when I'm there age I'll be going to meets None of the men were under 60 and had taken such care of their cars 0

I've never worked with lights in a photography studio before, and this college course has us using them for the past few weeks. Yesterday I took a really nice portrait of someone. People have complimented it and the guy who's in it described it as his CEO of Apple photo. :pac:
I can't use it for the assignment though (boo!) As we're supposed to be doing standard high street portraits. It doesn't bother me though, this is better than any of those shots.

Costa, in our local shopping centre yesterday had two of the staff outside, dressed up as Micky and Minnie Mouse. There was a little fellow in the queue behind me, so excited, when he saw them. They were inside at the time, and one of them had her head taken off, but the kids still loved seeing them.
Another tiny little girl, was crying, wanting to go out to them, and the dad took her back out so she could see them, and it was like magic to see her so happy, standing with them and shaking their hands (paws) 0 -

Hope your day turned out the way you wantedDiamond Doll wrote: »I have the scariest most stressful day of my entire life ahead of me.
Went to my hairdresser this morning for a blow-dry in the hope of getting a little confidence boost. She knows all about what's ahead of me today. And she very kindly refused to take payment!
Very nice of her. At least it got the day off to a good start ... Hopefully a good omen for the rest of the day! 0 -
