Today we are bursting with happiness

You know that feeling when you've been feeling unwell and you suddenly don't feel so unwell? 
You know that feeling when the weather's been shit and suddenly it's not shit?
You know that feeling when you've been worrying about money and bills and suddenly there's hope on the horizon? 

Well take all that and bung it together with this list of today's 5 Good Things:

1. Not having to take any painkillers and not struggling when getting out of bed 

2. Having a lovely walk in the sunshine looking for signs of nature waking up, and spotting bees, butterflies and ladybirds

3. Getting to spend all afternoon and early evening outside wearing no coat and no jumper, and even switching to sandals for the first time this year, and having some digging help from a well-rested, 10-year-old who's lost her sense of being on a treadmill for a while and has become brilliant company. 

4. Hanging washing on the line for the first time this year

5. Having a drink in the garden with Richard when he finished work, and then eating some baby leeks, chard and cabbage for tea I picked from the garden
 
It's more than 5. It's loads more than five and I'm really happy.

Some days are just fantastic.
