three things february - day seven

So it was a crappy weekend, but today I am feeling super human thanks to a weekend undercover (duvet not top-secret spy mission) and a breakfast of Berrocca and codeine cocktail followed by an espresso chaser and I am ready to go find some good stuff again.

1. Planning itty bitty baby valentines

2. After making eye contact with a guy in the corridor, seeing him mouth 'wow' to himself (he may well have been thinking 'wow... what a mess' - but that's not in the spirit of this challenge right?)

3. The bus driver who waited for me to cross the road. Seriously, when I lived in Birmingham I swear they had a sadistic score on their recruitment criteria.

three things february - day three

'Three Things February' is a little blog challenge, held by Sarah of Among the Chimneypots. The idea is to post three things every day that have made you smile. Just little things like the froth on your cappuccino or cracking open a fresh magazine, you know those small moments so often overlooked and udnerestimated. The idea is that by consciously noticing and recording those moments we can make February a nicer place to be.

1. banoffee pie at my favourite independent coffee shop

(and the funny looks I got taking photos of my food!)

2. feeling like it's the first day of Spring



3. these crazy coloured granny squares

three things february - day one

I'm undertaking a little blog challenge this month, Three Things February, started by Sarah Rooftops of Among the Chimneypots. The challenge is, each evening in February, post three things from that day that have made you smile. I undertook a challenge like this once before, and I have to tell you, looking for things to write down, consciously opening your eyes to beauty, it genuinely one hundred percet makes you feel happier. Even if you don't blog about it, I would suggest trying it, keep a note, take a photo, tweet it, but make a record of that small moment of happiness.

Today, Tuesday the First of February:

1. snatching a few minutes reading time while my boy sleeps

2. sending a parcel of homemade sweets and knitted goodies to a new friend

3. my son dishing out some baby love:
