What's the one thing that made you smile today ?

[AvidFan]

Went out for my afternoon walk feeling sad, and had 2 ridiculously affectionate cats rolling over and interacting with me along the way.

Two things made me smile.
First: Singing a silly song outloud to myself while I packed the first large box for my move.
Second: Gonz's reply to Angie caught me off-guard and is very funny.

Getting more things done in the moving arena, finally finding and deciding on a mover and the date and EATING🫣😊

Unless they have a red hourglass or a fiddle on the body I love spiders. Great little predators of other insects. I do admit though when walking around seeing a big wolf spider crawling around can give you a start. Wolf spiders I let go along their merry, just like nonvenomous snakes.

I am the same. Taught my two little kiddos to carefully take spiders outside if we found one indoors, which used to happen regularly living the high dessert. I agree about the redback and fiddlebacks though: those were not allowed @KM76710. My cats decided they didn't like scorpions; hunted them at night while we were sleeping, and, being proud hunters themselves, would leave the (deceased) scorps for us to find in front of the woodstove. I never saw how they managed to do this without being stung.

Did you know baby porcupines are called Porcupettes?

Some kind people who were caring and supporting an old guy who fell over at the store today, until the paramedics came and took charge of him.

There's something so satisfying about having an equal conversation between adults with parents.
Like, they still know more about the world than you, and you look to them for guidance.
But it feels good to hold your own in the discussion and show understanding of the complex adult ideas being discussed.
To demonstrate they raised a sensible, intelligent person, even if you didn't turn out how they likely envisioned you'd be.
