At bedtime my boys and I snuggle up in the big bed and chat about our day. We talk about things that perhaps weren't so great and things we may have found difficult or stressful. Afterwards we all list our three good things before I put them to bed, so we've ended the day on a positive note. This is especially good if you've had a shitty time recently.
What are your three good things for today?
Mine are:
Being productive. Making a list of chores and ticking them off.
Talking to friends and loved ones who always make me smile.
Seeing all the trees in blossom near my house. They look and smell amazing.

My dogs almost behaved themselves on the long Sunday walk.
I had the nicest uninterrupted soak in the bathtub.
My daughter did the washing up without me asking.
It’s the little things that make a truly perfect day |

Currently having the pooch snuggling in my lap
Having an amazing weekend with the man of my nightmares, I mean dreams
A general sense of the world being right again.

What a lovely op.
My three good things -
The books that my dear friend recommended to me have arrived.
My hanging baskets are looking absolutely beautiful - walking up to the front door and seeing them makes me smile.
I had a really positive phone call earlier and have had lovely messages today from friends. I feel like I've been wrapped in loving soft hugs and it's wonderful. |

#4 thing, reading this made me smile a hugely comforting smile.

I really need to start doing this, when life runs at 100mph it's too easy to see quiet days as "down days" or "bad days" but there are still positives to be drawn from them even if you can't see what's been achieved.
I'm going to have a good think about my three things. |

3 good things.
1. Helped celebrate St George's day. (Twice).
2. Encouraged young people to be the best version of themselves they can be.
3. Hat quality chats with my mum via text (deaf so only way to remote communicate). |

"ummm.. I'm alive, my kids are happy (though I've not seen them), trying to think of a 3rd"
It can be as tiny and mundane as you like. For example, the sparrows that live in my garden were squabbling and it makes me grin stupidly. I love watching them, it's better than Eastenders |

Do it! I've had what I thought was a really hard week and doing this has made me realise that I'm actually doing much better than I thought I was. |

My 8 year old like to get as many Good Things in there as he possibly can. Last time it was 11, so keep on adding if you want to |

Spending time with two very special people.
Getting a photo and message which was full of happiness from someone close to me.
Messages from wonderful people who make me smile |

I won't cut my front hedge down because I can watch the sparrows squabbling on the branches from my sofa. |

Did you eat anything nice today? Did you have a cuppa that really hit the spot? A really good wank? C'mon Genghis, a third Good Thing is in there somewhere.... |

What about all the people who are friends today because of a thread you started. That's got to be a good thing |

1) I played barefoot in the garden with my tiny ferals today.
2) my kitchen is now clean.
3) I bought a piece of furniture I've been been jonesing for even though I've got nowhere to put it yet. |

Feeling the grass with bare feet is amazing. I hardly ever wear shoes in summer. |

1. The garden is starting to fill out with flowers and all feels 'neat' and in its place out there.
2. The youngest dog wanting to join me with the gardening. He just sits and watches with one ear cocked
3. I drank a lot of tea. ! |

That's a really good way to end the day. I'm going to do that with my children.
I've been working today but....
I didn't oversleep.
I get on with my 2 new manager's.

It really helps my eldest settle for sleep. He has anxiety and it forces him to shift his focus onto positive things. Plus it's a lovely bonding thing to do. |

A day out with friends where we've laughed and laughed.
The best snuggly cuddles with my kids before their bedtime.
Sitting with Mr Jazzy, just watching t.v. and chilling- feeling content!

3 good things
1. It was my birthday. I spent the weekend with my Teeny Tiny Mummy
2. The motorway wasn't a nightmare on the way home
3. Accepting, admitting something, I already knew deep down but didn't want to. |

Sat on the sofa and laughed about something daft with my friend's youngest daughter this morning. Was great to make her laugh as shes had some challenges recently.
Made a curry that was a triumph.
The sun shone again today after a day of torrential rain yesterday.
