    we're currently living with my parents and the cat is kept in the conservatory at night as he's got previous for going into other people's bedrooms.

    yesterday i had the morning off and said to DH that if he woke me at 7.30 i'd give him a lift to work. 7.30 comes around and the bedroom door is opened...by the cat who came and snuggled up on me. DH had let him out so he could come wake me up :)

    I got to actually speak to my lovely DH for the first time in months rather than communicating through email :D. His call woke me up just after 04:00 but I was so happy that I just stayed up to watch the sun coming up and it was beautiful and made me smile even more. I am truly loving the world and everyone/everything in right now. :)

    When I was out earlier I saw an old ladies hat blown off in the wind and it went under a bus, the car following the bus went through a muddy puddle and soaked her wet through, it made me chuckle I have to say

    Just been for a trip into town. Walking along the high street with dh and ds in his buggy. Suddenly this guy shouts out from a van going past 'Oh my god, there's my baby!'. We look across and this blonde, really wildly curly haired, grinning guy is pointing to our ds.

    Now to be fair there was a resemblance. DS has masses of blonde curls :D. DH was not impressed by this joke at all

    The man in the van soon stopped smiling when he got caught in a traffic jam waiting at some lights just ahead of us. He looked most uneasy as we walked past, dh shooting him a glare. Something tells me he wont be doing that again quickly :rotfl:

    Waking up completely wrapped in my beloved OH's arms :) We usually wake quite well snuggled but this was a lovely protective cuddle :)

    Haha yes it was about 6.30 this morning :D

    Last summer, I remember once I woke up totally snuggled down inbetween him and our lovely dog (both still asleep), being cuddled, and looking at the sun streaming through the curtains. I just lay there and thought about how lucky I am to feel so contented and loved.
