Lots to feel joyful about today….
Started with parkrun and a lovely cup of tea and chat afterwards with my friends.
Even more joyful was finishing my 1,000 piece jigsaw (the first jigsaw I’ve done for years!)

Nothing more joyful than a gloriously sunny day in winter.
Slopping around in the mud in a race.
Coming home to an empty house after visitors have gone home (I do like to have them, I also like it when they leave :) )

We all opened our eyes. I’m happy with that.

Didn't post yesterday but my Jan 1st one was that I looked out of a window of somewhere I have been an occasional visitor for the last eight and a half years but instead of looking over towards the right I looked left past the neighbouring houses and realised for the first time that in the far distance I could actually see the sea. It made my day!

January has begun. Joyuary will start when (if) this bloody rain ever stops….

But I’m busy house clearing, by the end of the month I’ll have handed my notice in from part time job and will have a full retirement date and will be living in the Cotswolds. Joy indeed by the end of the month 😃

Joyous indeed, BBL and TRO!

I've just bumped into my ex boss from 20 years ago. It was lovely to see him and his wife and to have a brief catch up.

Yesterday started with the migraine from hell and I missed the gloriously sunny day. I got my moment of joy on the evening dog walk. It was a clear, crisp night and the stars were out. I switched the head torch off and took a moment.

I love a good walk in the rain, and walked back from dropping the car off for its MOT.

Maintained by Raemondo
As the arse end of the year is generally miserable, and to my mind is not improved by resolving to deny oneself one's greatest pleasures, I've decided to set myself a different new challenge: to find out create a moment of joy every day and record it - mostly in a Facebook group that a friend of mine set up several years ago for 'Fabruary', but I thought there might be a few Fetchies who would enjoy the concept too.

My idea is that moments of joy can come in all sizes - an...
