The 'What Makes You Happy' Thread (Part 5)

[Hazel at the Hill]

Misreading the Garmin at the end of this morning's Parkrun - when the result was emailed through, I found I was a minute quicker than I thought I was.

Double-checked the Garmin, and yup - my legs were working much better than my eyes, it seems!

First the good news - just got back from the village car boot with 8 of these



for the princely sum of £2 - and whats more I know exactly waht I can use them for.

Now the bad, also from the car boot we (and notice I say 'we' not I) picked up a set of 3 bone china, green and white frog plant pot holders - one large, one med and one small. I bought them from an animal charity stall - so what the piggin heck am I going to do with them?

Potty, now you are just bragging........

People that can do anything they put their mind too whilst I suffer with 'how the ell am I' syndrome.

Growing a decent sunflower for the first time! Not quite 8 feet tall (the cane resting against it for the photo is 8 feet) but the bees don't seem to mind one bit.

More rain for 36 hours.
Even the pond is only about 25cm off full. Is that the drought over?

Cycling always makes me happy. I cycle everywhere and very rarely drive. I cycle every day all through the winter and it is always joyful.

My sister is nearly over suspected Scarlet Fever. Her rashes have nearly gone but her throat and tongue are still very swollen and sore.

Not getting a divorce and hubby getting away lightly, so he has learnt for next time

Hubby thought it would be nice to put real chillis in the chilli last night so I let him have a green ohnivec (no heat when unripe) and three pretty purple (50'000shu so not that hot). Yep you have already guessed it he touched his face and next thing I heard was.........what are you growing........chemical warfare......it burns.........

He was very good he didn't swear once, but I really was quite worried for a moment. Well he has got a way lightly for when the various 500'000+ shu chillis are ready
