Makes Me Sad/Makes Me Happy

Top o' the morning to you!

We've been having a fantastic spell of weather here but strong winds are forecast today, maybe Mary Poppins is on the horizon :)

Well here's what's been making me sad this week:


That mean Alfie went for Pippy so I've had to let Paul have her back for a while, yes I know she's his dog but I loves her too :(

But look at what's made me happy:


Meeting up with online friends in real life and having a great time on the beach :)

What happy things have wiped out the sad in your life this week?

Thanks for stopping by and please pop in tomorrow for the chance to win a great prize!

Have a great day

Makes Me Sad/Makes Me Happy

Can't believe a week has gone by already!

Without any further ado here's what makes me sad:


Maddie is not well! She never gets sick and hasn't been to the Dr's in over 12 years so she's not coping well :(

This is what makes me happy:


My new tin that totally reflects the gorgeous weather we're having at the moment.

What's been making you happy this week?

Thanks for stopping by

Makes Me Sad/Makes Me Happy

I was really pleased with the positive messages I had last week when I first mentioned this project. 
It really does brighten your day, after seeing something that makes you sad, to go searching for something that makes you happy.
This week I got up in the morning and realised that I'd forgotten to buy milk so no brew before work, that is sad :(


But on the way to work I saw this smiley face and that made me happy :)


Apart from commissioned work and Banksy pieces I don't really like graffiti, especially when it's just an ugly tag, but this face put a smile on my face just when I needed it!
Any one is welcome to join in with Makes Me Sad/Makes Me Happy on a Thursday and there are only two rules:
1. We all know that there are lots of things in the world that make us sad and downright mad but this really is a lighthearted project so no nasty images.
2. Have fun looking for even the smallest thing that makes you happy.
Let me know if you do join in so that I can come visit to find out the little things that make you happy and sad.
Take care

Makes Me Sad, Makes Me Happy!

I've been reading Julie Kirk's Push Up Bra Blogging and yes I do want to blog more regularly and with maybe more format...more format may make me blog more regularly, who knows!

I've also noticed lots of blogs following Helena's example and doing a regular Look Up, Look Down post,something I plan to join in with.

Anyway I saw something yesterday that made me sad, Maddie knows it makes me sad and laughs heartily about it! The sad thing I saw was this:


I hate seeing a lost glove on the floor, I always feel sorry for it (yes I guess Maddie's right to laugh).

I thought I'd look around to see what would cheer me up and make me happy. I wasn't disappointed by these cheerful little faces :)


Who doesn't love a daisy? They really are my favourite happy flower.

So I got to thinking about how I might enjoy a sad/happy post once a week of just silly little things in life. Things that will probably tell lots about the type of person I am :)

Hopefully you'll find these posts funny, interesting and maybe informative…we shall see.

Thanks for the visit
