The What makes you Happy thread ...part 7

[Lumpy]

I have not had a rant all year.

[Mrs Bee]

Lovely day at home with children making toilet roll numchucks, trampolining, general arty stuff, making cake & 'skating' on the frozen decking.

Saving OH shirts which had gone crusty with a lot of soda crystals, & saving his ironing by hanging them straight from the tumble dryer (I know, I'm sad!)

Completing my sowing plan which I start tomorrow with chilies & cutting celery.

What is a numchuck please?

[veggiechicken]

What makes me happy today:-
Watching a Goldcrest on the camellia outside the upstairs window. So close I could have touched it - if the window was open Such tiny birds - smaller than a wren! Beautiful.

A day in the garden - not too cold. Just right for weeding!

Still light at 4.30. Spring is on its way.

and, of course,

Uncle Ernie's generosity

[Mrs Bee]

Mr Bee in quarantine with man flu so I get to look after my granddaughter on my own for a few days.

When granddad Bee is around only he will do. When he isn't, I get the cuddles, and loves and reading books, and tickles and giggles and playing.

And she behaves well because granddad isn't spoiling her rotten.

[Nicos]

Checking to see if my chilli seeds are germinating about 6 times a day!

Yep...I know they take longer than 2days....but it's best to check eh?

[Small pumpkin]

Just read in the GYO magazine that T & M have donated £250 of vouchers to the pensioner that had his garden vandalised. This makes me happy.
Congratulations T & M, nicely done.

Is a numchuck not a Japanese weapon...two poles joined with a length of chain or something?

My happy...a nice frosty sunny day. -4 at the moment!

[happyhumph]

Yes it is Jay, unless you make it out of 2 toilet roll tubes joined by a length of wool I blame ninja turtles & myself for ever letting them see it!

My happy - children interested in the garden. 3 year old noticing contents of a pot have changed "where flower gone?" (a very ropey blueberry replaced with bulbs) & 7 year old asking for their own corner of the veg patch to grow multi coloured carrots, & a corner of the greenhouse

A wee bird flying free...................

[veggiechicken]

Bought some smart new collars for the dogs, embroidered with my mobile phone number in big numbers. If they get lost someone can ring/text me - as long as I have my phone with me/turned on/can remember how to use it

[bramble]

Having a day out with my grand daughter. We had a lovely time and had a nice lunch.

[Mrs Bee]

Sitting on a toilet seat in the wet room with granddaughter in a gardening trug as a bath, on the floor.

Blowing bubbles with a 50p giant bubble maker and watching as she giggles with delight catching the bubbles in her wet hands and holding them without them bursting. Pure joy.

[bramble]

Checked my Sweet Pea seeds which I sowed tthe other day and 23 of thrm have germinated. So pleased.

[veggiechicken]

Bidens, lettuce and radish seeds sown on Monday have all germinated.
That means empty space in the propagator to fill = find more seeds to sow
It doesn't matter what seeds I sow, I'm always thrilled to see those shoots coming out into the light

[lottie dolly]

designing a chicken coop and pen,then redoing it,looking up and note taking of things to do or not,there will be no time to do these things when the building starts eh.
