Being thankful for the small stories of my day.
🧡💚🧡💚
The precious moment when the cat decides that she could share a corner of the bed,
then falls asleep so soundly I can hear her gently snore.😸
Keeping the house warm as the woodburner crackles away using up waste wood from a broken fence.
The scent of a candle as it fills the air with a warm fragrance of cinnamon and ginger.
Having time to play with the loom.
Eating cheese and mushroom toasties.
Arranging a gift of yellow roses into a glass jug.
Baking a marmalade fruit cake and a tray of Silverdale gingerbread brownies for my man.
Thankful for being warm and dry and inside.☔💨
Small stories making up a large part of my day.
🧡💚🧡💚
Thank you to the lovely Vix (from Vintage Vixen) for the link to the photo-collage site xx
I like your 'gratitude' post & my blogpal Sandra does one each month too. Lots to be thankful for when we think about it when we are calm & relaxed without too much stress. Thanks Kate. Take care & hugs.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan, yes, doing a gratitude post or keeping a gratitude diary really brings home how much there is to be thankful for :) x

ReplyDeleteDefinitely worth a go! (they are excellent slightly warmed with a jug of custard too)
DeleteIts these little simple things that make us happy. My happy things were tulips a friend brought me, a fruit cake I made to bring to my daughter's, walking her dog and listening to the birds singing.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right! it is those little things that make life wonderful!💗
DeleteLittle things add up to a satisfying day ♥️
ReplyDeleteI completely agree!
DeleteThoroughly enjoyed this "happy moments" post. It makes me feel a little guilty that I don't pay more attention more to the simple things of everyday life. Those "catch your breath" moments when we realise that life is good. keep well. Amanda x
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you; the simple things that ought not to be forgotten, can bring so much pleasure and peace of mind. I'll have a play with the collage site too, when I have time! x
ReplyDeleteFlowers and fireplace........so nice. I would be knitting right there while you use your loom. Staying warm, staying safe, and inside is such a good thing. I've been on count down for Spring since Fall started. Not a fan of anything winter related.
ReplyDeleteA warm, cosy post.😃 Those toasties look delicious. 🧡xx
ReplyDeleteA perfect montage :) I can hear the cat snoring (very cute) and feel the warmth of the log burner. Gingerbread brownies!... you have a lucky man x
