Finding a little good in every day

Every now and then I join in with Fat Mum Slim's 'Photo-A-Day' challenge. This awesome blogger aka Fat Mum Slim in the land of Down Under puts together these daily topics every month and you post a pic on Instagram, her Facebook wall, her Group page, Google + - heck, wherever you like... tag it with #fmsphotoaday and basically share the photo love.

I read on her website that people have actually improved their outlook on life by finding the good in every day in searching out their photo topic. It's such a simple thing but it honestly makes you look at things differently and it's so cool to see how people interpret the topic in different ways.  

Interpret. Is that a word? It is now.

And so.......the topics for September are

So here goes... The first 7 I posted are....

Day 1: In my cup - the remnants of hot chocolate the night before :)

Day 2: Stripes

Day 3: Button - Me: "ooh I need a photo of a button for #fmsphotoaday" teenager: "here mom, use mine, don't get my face in" LOL.

Day 4: DIY - I literally had a BLAST doing this :) 

Day 5: Upside Down - this kid turns our house upside-down. EVERY. DAY.

Day 6: I Need... to stop eating crap :( 

Day 7: Father - this time last year my dad was seemingly healthy, then one day in September he collapsed in a supermarket carpark and all of our lives were turned upside down as he was diagnosed with a brain tumour that doctors think had been slowly growing for around 7 years. He had brain surgery at Christmas and woke up unable to move his entire right hand side. Because he's a stubborn old bugger he forced himself to move and within a month he was able to stand and slowly walk again. He's had endless problems since the op including blood clots, a pulmonary embolism and now an enlarged heart which has slowed him down again. He's kept such a brave face throughout this whole ordeal and even though he's had to give up work after 50 years of working hard pretty much every single day he still manages to keep high spirits. I love him so much and I'm so proud that he is my Dad
