What made you smile today?

Quite a few things have made me smile today, but here are the main two:
1. I put the cardboard tube from a finished roll of loo paper on the bathroom step thismorning to remind myself to take it downstairs for recycling. I then forgot it, having not seen it due to carrying a large load of washing downstairs to put in the machine. While I was eating my breakfast GGJ brought it down and put it at my feet!:inlove::inlove::inlove:
2. The wonderful news about Carbón!:clap::clap::clap:

The wonderful news about Carbón!:clap::clap::clap:
"What did I do? What? I know I am always spectacular in any situation, so I am sure I did something wonderful! ML, oh...ML...where is my extra dinner because Candy says I am wonderful?! Or MAYBE if I really am exceptionally wonderful, Reuben would give me his chicken now that he is feeling in tip top shape?"

Memories of how I dealt with an elderly Cavalier (Gavin) and a ten week old crocapup (Tatze).

🤣

So hard to imagine the lovely Tatze as a crocopup!
But then GGJ, now possibly the gentlest of all dogs was the most crocopup pup I've ever known!
So any current owners of crocopups, keep the faith, don't give up, one day you too will be able to say to people with small children 'It's OK, she's very gentle ':nod::clap::inlove:

This is one of my favourite places up on Norland Moor, Ladstone Rock20220514_110041.jpg20220514_110025.jpgApparently the word Ladstone comes from the Celtic for kill. There are various theories about the reason for the name, some people say the rock was used for human sacrifices long long ago, others think that it was where people found guilty of witchcraft were thrown to their death. Nowadays it's just a fascinating rock with names carved into it and beautiful views and a good spot to try and persuade your dog to pose for a photo. GGJ however was not really in the mood for modelling today! So I gave up and was about to turn away when I spotted this little gap in the rock with bluebells growing in it. I was surprised, there are no bluebells anywhere else on the moor.....then I peered a bit closer and......Dog hair! It just gets everywhere doesn't it? Made me chuckle though. :rofl: 20220514_105853.jpg

We went to our local club for lunch with friends yesterday, our first outing since Steve's surgery. It was a gorgeous sunny day 🌞 26 degrees - two weeks from winter! So nice after another wet and gloomy week.

What made me smile was being able to have a great meal, lots of laughs and watch Steve tuck into his steak and chips with much enthusiasm 💗

Great to read, so pleased Steve is feeling brighter and it must have been uplifting for you as well.
 
We had a playdate with the people from two doors down. They have young kids and used to have a Labrador, so I think they are our kind of people! In fact, they were going to come over to our place but some kid related drama ensued and we went over to their place. They even insisted that we bring Chewie, who was lovely. A bit shouty but very gentle with the kids.
