Long Gone Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I've been using the 6 minute diary, and had been struggling to write done '3 positive things' without saying the same old things each time. My therapist last night reminded me it isn't just about the positive exterior things (my house, my dog) but about you as a person....'you are kind, loving etc....' Always worth reminding ourselves of the good inside us and what we can offer others. Link to comment
Rose Mosse Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Beautiful thought.^ I bought a palm tree (for indoors) and it's flourishing and growing very quickly. I always love that funny job of pruning roots and you can tell so much about the health of a tree or plant by the health of its roots. I usually do root prunings when the roots are more or less on the drier side and outside so the debris and soil don't get all over the house. My only thought is... do I want this tree growing any bigger? Link to comment
Rose Mosse Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 The one where he gets dressed while driving the car to the dentist (along with using the windscreen washes to wash his mouth out) is a favourite along with the episode at the swimming pool! Lol I love the swimming pool one. The car to the dentist I believe was one of the first episodes... such a classic. Link to comment

Capricorn3 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Looking forward to NYE this year and hopes for a better year.🥳. Actually can't wait for 2020 to be over. Let's see what 2021 brings. Same here. The world has been a mad mad mad place this past year. I've been really lucky living where I do as most of the madness never reached us and life has been good and carrying on as normal for the most part (except for health). So I'm pretty happy but very sad for the crazy world we live in. Link to comment

Jibralta Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Back already, Boba? Lol. Yup. Fair warning: it tends to be sweet. I love them, but my boyfriend, who doesn't have my sweet tooth, wouldn't enjoy it. Link to comment
Batya33 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hope this qualifies -making my mother laugh (phone call) when I told her my popular brand frozen meal, korean beef....... had no beef!! We immediately thought of our favorite Wendy's commercial with the older woman "Where's the beef??" (Yes, I emailed the company, yes they're sending coupons but no beef lol). She just loved the story. Link to comment

pippy longstocking Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 oh blimey the first thing I saw was *On average, a cup of bubble tea contains 20 teaspoons of sugar* well you did say it was sweet Link to comment
Jibralta Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 We immediately thought of our favorite Wendy's commercial with the older woman "Where's the beef??" True story: That commercial came out when I was about 10. Like you said, it was famous. Everyone had heard it; everyone was saying it. One day, one of my dad's employees went to McDonald's for lunch and got a burger. When he bit into it, there was no meat. He opened the burger and found a piece of paper that said, "Where's the beef?" My sister and I thought that was so funny..... but thinking about it now, I'd probably be kind of grossed out!

LaHermes Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 The amazing kindness of people here IRL these days. Not in big things, but in lesser things, even if only a cheery word. Link to comment
boltnrun Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 I love what World Central Kitchen is doing. My goodness, that man Jose Andres is one of the most giving, caring and self-less people I've ever read about. I've donated a couple of times to the organization and will do so again once I am employed. Also, there are two firefighters who were badly burned fighting the most recent wildfires. People were asked to donate blood. So many people showed up they had to turn some away and ask them to return Monday. During a pandemic! It's amazing. Link to comment

itsallgrand Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 My neighbours building a little outdoor skating rink in their yard. So cute seeing them out there building it with their two little kids. Little kids out playing in their snowsuits makes me happy. Reminds me of being a kid and how wondrous winter can be.

reinventmyself Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Wrapping up my mom's estate and her home we came across about a dozen boxes of tiny blown glass angels and stars. I sent half home with my brother. I just finished decorating my tree entirely with them. . *Insert deep sigh here Link to comment
