I've been such a grump this past week.

The weigh of the past couple of years crushing me.

Today shook me out of it.

Had lunch with my best friend, during which he suggested we reach out to an old friend of ours who made a giant mistake ten years ago that ruined our friendship. So I made a group chat on WhatsApp & we sent him a picture & said hello. He's coming home from Australia in a couple of weeks; we're going to meet up. 🙂

Then I went to another friends house for a cup of tea. When I got back I did a favour for my sister. A girl across the street has had her benefits stopped. So she's now trying to feed four children on her part time wages so my sister cleared out the cupboards of tins & dried goods & her boyfriend went over & left the food on her doorstep. Because I arrived super casual, in my gym gear I was tasked with sneaking over, knocking the door & running away, so she wouldn't know who left the food.

I can't remember what we used to call that game, when you rapped on someone's door & scarpered?

But today had such lightness about it, such positivity that I now have that warm fuzzy ball of happiness in my chest again.

It's the little moments that make things better like isn't it. 🙂

@SW-User I know, right.

@SevenTierCrazyCake Knock-a-door is what we called it. Very literal.
@SW-User that's what my sisters boyfriend said. But then you're from the same area so that expected.
