Things that cheered you up/made you smile....

I woke up and started making dinner before work. I noticed that someone had put a hidden mickey in the flowers we have in the kitchen. It made me smile on the way to work.

Love this!

I made Mickey shaped brownies yesterday.

My roommate moved out and took his dog with him. We've started having confirmed covid cases at work, so I'm pretty much isolating myself from everyone. I moved out of the house with my daughter and the baby (I know it isn't really affecting kids, but since he was just in the NICU for pneumonia when he was born in February, I don't want to chance it.) I'm staying in the house with my oldest son, his wife and her mom. Most of the dogs stayed with my daughter, so I'm going through dog withdrawal. My ex-roommate sent me a picture of his dog to my email at work. Now it is my background picture at work.

Aww. Dog withdrawal is hard. I wish you could post videos here. I would share a picture of my friend and her Husky working with a kick bike. It's so funny and cheers me up so much I've probably watched it a dozen times by now.

I love Huskies. They are so much fun. The one dog I took with me is named Lady. I'm thinking about finding a Tramp to go with her.

I love Huskies too! But they can be a handful! My sister and her husband had one. She was very sweet and loving, but constantly doing crazy things. Stuff you wouldn't even believe. She was wicked smart and got bored very easily. Bad combination! They would take her out biking and running for several miles pretty much every single day and it never fully ran off her energy.

DD19 and I went for a snowy trail ride yesterday. It was so beautiful and peaceful!

Capt Tom has made me smile! You may have heard of him but if not he's a 99 yr old vet who planned to walk 100 laps of his garden before his 100th birthday on April 30. He did it for NHS charities hoping to get £1000. He finished his laps and his total is £21 million plus!!!
Yes, i donated. Total hero in my book.

That's amazing! Good for him.

My oldest son and I were running errands yesterday. He was telling me that during their zoom meeting for work that day, someone was playing "I'll Make a Man Out of You." He started singing along with the song during their meeting. lol

Then he started playing Disney music for me in his truck. <3

I tried a couple of new recipes for dinner recently, spaghetti carbonara and shakshuka. Both turned out great!

I got a Marco Polo from a friend in another state. Marco Polo is a video messaging app and it's a lot of fun. She did a video of herself opening a package from one of our favorite shops. It cheered me up so much to see her face and hear her voice!

I've been finding fossils in our backyard and DH found our old rock tumbler!

On page 2 of this thread I said about Captain Tom Moore raising money for NHS charities. His Just Giving page was closed on his 100th birthday at just shy of £33 MILLION!!!!!!! The Queen has now knighted him so it's now Captain Sir Tom Moore. Well done and well deserved!
