As tomorrow will be busy with two blog tours, I’m releasing this week’s wave on a Thursday!
Welcome to today’s Happy Friday! My remedy against feeling down is to make a list of all the good things in my life. It can be anything. Really, anything. The smallest gesture from a stranger can change your day, if you open your eyes. Now, I am a pessimistic and I need daily reminders to look for the bright side. Maybe you are too, or maybe the state of our world is weighing on you. In any case, here’s your shot at some happy things!
- Hitting the road with Yûki. While Iris loves to sleep when we’re driving, Yûki adores enjoying the wind!
- Beating ice-cream to the “who’s gonna melt last” game!
- Being told I could be a writer by a talented and published author. For real. Again. It is a real victory for me, as I still sometimes face people who think my English isn’t good enough, but most of all, it’s a personal victory. Go me!
- No nail-biting for… three hours!
- Weekly selfie in the sun. Out and getting sweaty!
- Belly laughing all evening in front of a great humorous show on TV. It reminded me my abs have gone on holiday! (it hurts!)
- Wearing a beautiful gift every night when walking the dogs (Love you, Kate!)
- Patisseries EVERYWHERE!
- Lovely resilient flowers resisting the heat!
- Almost breaking a toe while dancing like crazy to the Dirty Dancing soundtrack!
Ha I thought I missed a day and it was Friday already! So glad you keep finding happy moments to share. Love that tweet how amazing to be told you could be a writer!!! I’m very tempted by that eclair and your weekly selfies are great! 😀

Haha, I am so sorry! I didn’t think to change the title when I rescheduled the post! Now everyone is either thinking I’ve been drinking or they’ve missed a day xD
No matter how deep I have to dig, I do my best to find those little moments ❤
I couldn't believe that tweet! It was so sweet of Shalini! I lack the creativity to write books, but it's super adorable!
Eclairs are so yummy they always cheer me up.
One day, I'll feel more comfortable about selfies… One day!
Have a fabulous Thursday, Friday and weekend!! xx

You had me there for a second, I thought we were Friday! Of course you could be a writer, I already knew that, but I admit hearing it from an actual writer is a 100x so amazing! I love éclairs, yumm! Happy Thursday, and Friday, and weekend Meggy!

Love the video of Yuki in the wind. ❤.
I am so proud of you for getting a wonderful, TRUE and well deserved compliment from the Author. I agree with her. You have the style, it’s just a plot you need now. 😉😉.
Your shawl is lovely. Did your friend make it herself. ( is it ‘thequietknitter’?
They say belly laughing is the best therapy you can get. Sounds like a fab show.
Thanks for the wave. My happy moments:
1. Waking up early to a blue sky.
2. Happymail from the postman.
3. Winning 2 giveaways, one for stickers and one for books. 😊.
4.Getting ahead on my review posts. 😊. A rarity for me.
5. Evening enjoyment of Love Island, tea and a little chocolate.

Yûki makes me smile every day 🙂
Maybe one day, an idea will pop up!
Yes, Kate the quiet knitter made it! It’s soft and the colours are beautiful.
I love a blue sky, with a light breeze and little birds!
The postie is my bff, except when she hands me bills, haha!
Congrats on winning two giveaways!
I wish I was ahead on my reviews! A reading slump caused by life and the heat has put me in a bad position…
I don’t get Love Island here! 😦 xxx

So… what show was it that made you laugh so hard?
And congrats on the compliment by an author, that you could be an author too. I imagine how achieving the feeling must be, especially since English is not your first language.
Have a lovely weekend! 🙂
