Watching the news, wave after wave of disasters, literally and metaphorically, has made me take a more pragmatic view of my own life.  Be glad for the small things and as ever, live in the moment, the past is history, the future a mystery, the moment a present...
So, here are five things currently making me happy....

| Tiny Narcissus and Grape Hyacinths |

| Tiger Primulas | 
|  | 
| Geordie Cat! | 
|  | 
| Olive tree against a terracotta wall, reminding me of holidays |

| 'chanelling' coral, my new fav colour! |
