Reasons To Be Cheerful; 1, 2, 3



Thanks again to the lovely Michelle at Mummy from the Heart for this great Friday series. I do have a tendency to dwell on the negative sometimes (not so much glass half full as 'where's my bl***dy' glass!') so it's refreshing to be able to post about something positive and uplifting. 
Here's my 3 reasons to be cheerful today:
  1. DD seems to finally be over her sickness and back to her normal self. It was lovely having her dozing on me while I watched films, but I much prefer having her running around making mayhem. I know, I can't believe it either.
  2. One of the lovely staff at my local Starbucks, Jane, remembered DD by name and made such a fuss of her while I grabbed a coffee-to-go after playgroup. Great customer service never goes out of fashion and always makes me smile.
  3. Oh, and it was my birthday yesterday. I'm another year older... and I don't care!
Edit: I have to add a 4th reason, sorry, but just read that the rather lovely Daniel Craig is going to play Bond again. Now THAT, dear readers, is a reason to be most cheerful indeed.

      8. Looking for Blue Sky - ha ha! Sorry, I know it's a bit obscure. DD watches the DVD every evening before her tea (or there's hell to pay!). Thanks for the birthday wishes x

        Mrs N - Thank you and hands off! He's mine! (Well actually it looks like he's Rachel Weisz's if you believe what you read...)

        SuperLittleMen - Merci beaucoup!

        @jencull - Thank you. You get what you wish for though eh? LOL.

      12. Many thanks Sheffy, welcome to BFT. You're so right about public service. Recognition and a smile, not a lot to ask, but makes the world of difference.
