Thanks I needed to read that, I’m sure you woulda seen that I’ve been down in a big way….my task for myself tomorrow is to make someone’s day brighter in some way. I achieved it slightly today after spending all day in Mt G with DH’s cardiac sessions by stopping at a devine bakery (run by these wonderful vietnamese family) and bringing the girls back a special treat each. I am not sure what I will do but I plan on doing something nice for each person I come across tomorrow and hoping that will pick me up along the way - wether it be a compliment or just a grin or smile I don’t know, but I will be working on it

I’m convinced I brighten people’s lives everyday, just by being cheery at the checkout, when sometimes what I really want to do is toss their things any-old-how into their bags and boot them out the door….
Still, I believe you’re right in saying that blah blahs and boo-hoos do drag us down in spirit. It’s a common problem nearing the end of Winter; people have had enough of grey and rain, they want the sunshine and blossoms of Spring.

I’m happy at the moment, no negativity or sadness here. I managed to brighten my bible study groups night tonight by making meringues for our supper - the sugar high was fun to watch!!

And my littlest boy brightened my night as he came home from swimming lessons tonight and helped me get the house ready for bible study - instant stress reduction and made me joyfull to see all he could do on his own. He will be a great wife for somebody someday!

Avoid negative people, don’t take on their issues and celebrate all the good things in life! And, maybe stay away from facebook at the moment!

We are moving house and the stress is slowly sending me barmy but I’m trying to be cheerful about it.

There are always going to be people gloating over others misfortune. And I, like you, feel sorry for them. But a tiny bit of me wants to slap them around the head a little bit.

When I dropped Boo off at school today - his first day back since the whole face meets double glazed brick wall - and told his teachers how much I appreciate them.

And then I held one of my Damn Emos friends while he cried. (not making his day brighter, but hopefully a little less dark)

And now I am going to make myself a latte. Because EVERYONE is happy when I am properly caffeinated…

I just bought my kids some marinated steak for tea.. its their favourite meal and they dont get it often.. so hope they say “awesome” when i tell them whats for dinner.. instead of “yuk”.. (gotta love honest kids)

I offered to go and help a friend catch up on her ironing but she rejected me all because she has a cold and doesnt want to share it.. so she also blessed me by helping me avoid the germs…

So now i am going to brighten my own day by catching up on some reading and old recorded series i havent had a chance to see!!
