Say Anything Nice Today!
Lately it seems everything is going so negative. We all tend to be hard on ourselves and others at times. This thread is devoted to saying anything
nice about yourself, or someone else today! (Don't wait until tomorrow!!) ie, I just made a beautiful lavender wand, I feel amazing! (It can be anything, you did, didn't do, want to do soon, a talent you have or one you secretly want, leave a nice note for someone here..the sky's the only limit! |

Great thread idea kittygrrl!
Two Blue Herons landed on my roof today. I found out they can live to be 15 years old and they live in "colonies." Watching them fish in the ravine out my back deck is a thing of beauty. They are nothing short of majestic. I would also add, I appreciate the varying opinions here on BfP. Many speak with such verbal alacrity, very impressive!

My Mother was a painter. After her death, I collected what was left of her unsold or undistributed paintings, sketches, drawings, drafts, scribbled ideas, bits and pieces and put them in a series of portfolios she had kept ... and stored them away to give to my daughter, her granddaughter...when the time seemed right.
My daughter recently told me that I'm about to be a grandmother. I decided the time is now right but because they live in Australia, I figured I should spread the art haul out over time: sending some, bringing some with me when I visit. So I started sorting through it. And there it was... my grade school art, drawings, colourings...a mini portfolio full of bits of my childhood that she had kept and slipped inside her own portfolio some 65 years before. She had done what I had done with my own daughter's art...and now these 3 generations of art will be sent to Australia to be the heritage of the fourth generation of this surviving family. This is a miraculous and happy story.

I love having a certification. Even though it is a CNA certification, I feel more in control of my life and career. I no longer have to settle for a low paying job, that has no growth potential. My next goal is to become a medical billing specialist
I also applied for a CNA/Administrative Assistant position with a local hospital. Zimmeh

I am so grateful that I am at a point in my life that I will no longer stay silent when I see a person/persons being victimized.

I saw a gorgeous rainbow on my way to the dog kennel this morning!!!! Oh and yesterday I saw a Kingfisher on the telephone line down by the pond. We always called them "wood knockers".

Something nice....hmmmmm.....
Well.... Today I was told how awesome I did at my job in July. Got a fist bump from the boss and everything lol. I get off work early tomorrow! That's definitely nice. Sometimes I have chats that are extra nice.

How lucky you are. I should probably check if we have any pelicans here. Canada Geese don't look anything like pelicans and they are a bit "messy" but they are a magnificent sight when they migrate in formation...we love them "as long as they keep moving" lol.

Smiling has pointed out to me that bird "doody" on your head is a sign of good luck. Well, this may just be the thread where i can honestly claim that I've had lots of good luck.
