What's the BEST thing that happened to you today?

I went to church with my mum for mothers day and she had me in tears the service was lovely, and I've not seen my mum for ages so it was really special.

Had a wonderful morning with the children giving me hand made cards and little presents. Made me smile all day.

I too have had a lovely day with DD and my mum (and DH)

DD gave me a lovely card, chocs and a little teddy which says 'Best mum'.
My mum came over for lunch at our house as I couldn't get a table at her favourite restaurant. When I took her home, she said "Thank-you, that was a lovely meal and I felt much more relaxed than I would have done at the Wheatsheaf with everyone bustling about". I felt really appreciated

All we really need is to love and be loved - everything else is coincidental

The best thing about today was my obnoxious rude 7-year old niece being dragged out to the car and driven home after I'd gone to bed with a migraine. Never again - she's banned from this house; I'll see my mother on my own from now on, without my sister and her spawn. At least I can hope - I've not seen my mother alone for 8 years since it was born. My husband absolutely adores kids but even he was appalled - an out-of-control spoiled beast, its chemically depressed mother who hasn't a clue how to enforce sensible and consistent discipline, and a frail grandmother who is treated like **** by the horrible kid. I won't tolerate it around me.

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Lusignan, welcome to my life :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: !!!!!!

Sorry, hope you're feeling better but it was like going back 15 yrs and reading about my niece (and no, she hasn't improved with age :rolleyes: ).

Best thing that happened to me (sorry, this is the 3rd time I've mentioned this, I promuise to get out more!!!) was cooking a £1.39 ham hock in slow cooker for lunch, everyone loved it, and it made a pot of soup and meat for 2 lunches as well!!! Bargainsville!!!!! (So, Morrisons also had packs of bones with some meat on for 19p. Reckon I could do dinner for 3 from that next week :rotfl: )
