My friend sent me some art found online... And it was like a visual symbol of myself and another precious person in our lives. So thoughtful. X
And you? 
I hope you will find a reason to smile today, if you haven't yet, no matter how small. Sometimes we need to search for it myself, rather than await for others to make it happen. I just got lucky today. X |

Today I smiled because I got to the end of my workday without any spiders crawling in my ear. This happened to me at the beginning of December and so traumatised me that each day since, when I get home from my shift, I smile with deep gratitude to have escaped a repetition of that particular experience. |

Specifically, I follow some nonsense accounts on Twitter and one post today made me smile:
'Ive just made a jelly in the shape of Donald Trump. I think I've set a dangerous president' |

My stepdaughter is moving in for a bit instead of just visiting twice a day to help me with stuff I can’t do on crutches I can stop feeling guilty now for texting every time I need something and spoil her. |

My best friend got in touch, asking me to come up and stay for a week in the summer, in Edinburgh. We don’t meet much, but it’s always the same. He’s like a brother |

I have a friend going through a tough time, so I asked her what she wanted from me to make her smile. She said my replies did this, that made me smile too. |

Because I met a really enthusiastic and interesting student for the first time! It's lovely to put a face and voice to a name (and hear her enthusiasm in the face of a total lack of parental support). |

Seeing this thread made me smile! 
I received a compliment from a someone on my hotlist today that left me speechless.
I was sent another message from a friend who said that I looked like I had lost weight. I haven't. But still I'm taking it. 
I have seen a lot of Women raising and empowering one and other today and that makes me smile. 
It makes me very happy to see you smile OP.
Jo.Xx

I had a very socially distant visit to my mum for her birthday. It’s the 1st time I’ve seen her since Xmas when she was taken to hospital with Covid. It was so hard not to give her a hug but I was good.

I smiled today because a certain someone gave me countless meaningful reasons too.
Because my best mate is bloody funny and can make me laugh in just one text.
Because other friends chat and make me smile everyday,
Because of my kids and how cute and funny I find them,
And weirdly I love driving and that made me smile too.
And smiled becuased despite being in lockdown I'm still free from things that once held me back.

OK, you asked - I’m reliably told that they roll in it or eat it. I was told another story last week by a friend that would even shock the broad-minded folks on here. |

Fox poo stinks. Our Labrador loved it.
You can actually buy fox poop shampoo.
As it it removes fox poo rather than smells of it |

I smiled today and yesterday because I have received some extremely kind supportive messages from quite a few people. I wasn't expecting the response I got, and it has made me look at the issue with a different mindset.
So thank you OP and to everyone else who took the time to send me kind words.

"I smiled today because I made someone else happy and smile."
You always make me smile when I see you posting on the forum.
Today I smiled because I made a lovely lady smile and also because I remembered the good times I have had with my friends throughout all of my life..  |

Yes saves her coming and going early and late. During the day she’s doing her own thing. It’s a huge help x |

In the old building where I work a crow came down the chimney. Covered the room in soot then flew out a window. Happy to see it survive ok, I guess it was a sign of something ? |

That's some rich imagination you have
It helps being a photographer and working out how to actually achieve doing my new photo's
Hope you don't need to wait too long.
So do I
