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!
- I am trying to find tricks to get my weekly runs done. It’s not easy when the sun tries to kill you, but hey, I sometimes win!

- I can’t get through the day without the “Have a great day” playlist on Spotify. It’s on when I’m working, when I’m cleaning, when I’m cooking… I’m a sad songs lover but there are too many sad things around at the moment!
- Shaking things up with my reviews! I don’t do it for every book but when I feel the pressure of reviewing becoming too much, I breathe and usually find a way to remind myself how it is FUN to write about books. My latest victim is the review of The Minders by John Marrs 🤣
- Second trip out to bookshops! I miss my London places, though. Books in French don’t interest me. Still, it’s nice to spot authors I love!
- I won the dogfie self of the week!!!! Look at Yûki, she’s the cutest!!!!!

- Work is more fun with your best friend next to you

- Keeping your nail polish safe for more than two days. Yes, it’s that important! It takes me forever to apply it correctly!
- Finding ways to enjoy adulting. I swear it can happen!
That’s it for this week! Stay safe, enjoy the little things, and share the kindness!
I’m so glad you posted today as I missed my weekly fix yesterday! 😂 xxx

I don’t enjoy the French language. My affinity to English means I get all the feels when I read in English! Have a lovely week! 🙂 xx

I love your double yawn selfies. That must have been a lucky snap to get it in time. I never used to like dogs much. ( I was scared of them as a child), but the more I see of you and yours the more I want one for myself in the future. Maybe a cat too. I am a cat person. 😊
My waves include a wonderful surprise of being accepted by netgalley a month after I requested Fifty Fifty. So looking forward to reading it.
As it’s Saturday, I’m adding on a happy moment from today. A trip to the bakers to get cakes😋. A millionaire donut and a rhubarb tart. Yum.
I finished another fantastic book- Queen Bee. I think you loved it too. This book gave me lots of happy moments.
And of course I must add that I got compliments and smiles on my new Winnie the Pooh face covering. 😷
Happy Saturday Meggy.

Ohhh I need to know what you think of Fifty-Fifty!!! I’m glad you got approved!
Cake! That reminds me I need to bake a new one, I finished the last this morning.
I adored Queen Bee, so yay for you loving it too! Isn’t it a brilliant read? Jane Fallon writes exquisite characters.
Ha, love your mask!
Take care, much love xxx

Where even are you right now???? What I’ve been doing is looking at temperatures and going for a run when it’s earlier. Will probably be doing that tomorrow and I’m thinking of changing up my route and seeing where it takes me. Although these longer runs I’m now getting home desperate to pee.
