Fed up with ‘bad’ news? Post your good news here!

[chockswahay]

For the first time in a couple of years I am really fed up with all the doom and gloom that lurks around the corner every time I listen to the news on the radio. We are in troubled times and I agree that for most of us on here any ‘problems’ we may have are actually very minor. However I do find that the constant barrage of current affairs is beginning to grind me down to the extent that I find myself not actually listen to ‘the news’ as much as I used to.

SO THEN, POST YOUR GOOD NEWS HERE! (No whining, no negativity, no depressing truths………..JUST GOOD NEWS)

True, and I had thought that myself but then that thread is in Covid forum and generally jokes etc. I figure this could be simply for factual good news……. No other agenda except must be positive and not negative

My Cali, while generally grubby, is not yet filthy enough that I have to wash it, hooray.

"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference".

That's it in a nutshell!

Since most of the doom and gloom is completely out of our control then what's the point in worrying about it?

Good news - In 31 days Christmas will be over................ Bah humbug!

This morning I held a door open for a slow walking older man and when he got to me he said, “I should be holding it for you my dear” I replied, “Don’t worry I’m a modern woman” and he beamed and said’ “thank goodness for modern women” we both chucked and went on with our days smiling

Sitting in the van listening to the river. The radio turns off the news by itself. And the sun is out and the kettle on.
