practice 'Happiness Manifesto' periodically (read all 6 entries…)
Today I am grateful for: 18 hours ago
  • this beautiful dish that a neighbour brought back from her trip to France. If you look closely, the indentations around the centre are actually a grater for garlic, lemon, ginger, etc. What a lovely gift.
  • a clean house. Today DH and I really got stuck into the housework. After feeling so lethargic with that nasty bug, it was lovely to be energised, and storm through the house
  • being able to go interstate as often as I want. This weekend I am off to Melbourne to visit my daughter (and SonIL)and go to the Quilt and Craft Fair with her. As she has lived overseas for the past 10 years, this is something we can look forward to more often. Lovely girl time….
