Reasons to be Cheerful: A mixed bag #R2BC

Thanks everyone for joining in last week. Its great when people find the happy little things when life can seem grim. Here are this week's reasons for me:
1) Running Together
Its not often I get photographed running but at Parkrun this week one of the regulars was practising his sports' photography. Great to see my son's determined sprint finish and I was obviously enjoying running with a lovely lady from St Andrews:

2) Yummy cooking

My daughter's cookery lesson this week was apple crumble. Absolutely delicious:

3) Operation House

The hall and landing have finally been painted. It makes a huge difference and we can finally get the carpets put in 4 months after ordering them:

4) Flowers

Wonderful to see these beauties still flowering in my garden:

Reasons to be Cheerful: Spring is in the air R2BC

Thanks everyone who joined in last week. I look forward to reading and sharing more of your happy posts this week.

1) In the spotlight

A photo I took several weeks ago was re-shared on Instagram by igerscumbria and received over 80 likes! A lovely feeling:

2) Teaching

I am enjoying creative week on my course. Lots of fun doing things like building their own Egyptian reed boats:

3) Spring

There maybe a nip in the air but the spring flowers are bursting out all over:

Amazed I still found a flower looking good enough to photograph! Weather has now gone very cold so guess there may not be many more...

Still enough flowers around to do this:

#TheGallery Sun

 

Weigh in Wednesday having a break as I've injured my leg! So time to join in with Tara for first time for months. A lovely theme of sun this week so here is my offering:

 

 

These poppies and wildflowers were really worshipping the sun! Makes a huge difference to both nature and people when the sun is out.
