I have finally won a game of Ruzzle! In fact, I've won 4 times since this. 

Looking forward to the arrival of a new pair of boots on Tuesday. Ordering them made me smile. 

More skiing carnage at the Winter Olympics amused me - very well timed to fit with half term!

And the boys once more made me laugh with a hastily rewritten pop song at bedtime.

Today is a good day for smiling. 

Watching Winter Olympics in bed. 
Improved back pain - still sore but not sharp. 
Some mad skiing action as well as curling agony and ecstasy. 
A walk to the shops with Jude, always good for a chat. 
A beautifully written blog post by a friend about coming through a period of depression. 
Lots of retweets of various things I've said or written. 
Dinner at Pizza Express - delicious! 
Silly songs at bedroom. My boys are hilarious!

February 18th is always going to be a tricky day. But memories bring smiles as well as tears. Eating liquorice, steamed puddings for tea, yelling some choice phrases and stomping up the stairs to pretend-steal a cuddly dog all made us smile, as did our decision to stop short of causing ourselves injury just do we could apply the obligatory steri-strips that would so often be required after a "little mishap". 
Barcelona beat Man City watched by BBB (that'd meet with approval) and the Winter Olympics was spectacular. 
Couldn't find any yellow roses today but I have tulips and pictures. 
Love you higher than the sky Daddy x

Being flat on my back with my back/hip in spasm and quite painful isn't going to stop me finding something to make me smile!

I've been looked after by my boys. Cups of tea with straws, liquorice bars appearing on my pillow as I snoozed, 'keeping me company' in shifts and flowers delivered to by the bed where I am currently stuck.

Norwegian curling trousers are very smile inducing too.

As was the Olympic spirit of Dario Cologna winning gold but insisting on waiting for the last man to finish so that he could shake his hand. 

A lovely moon too. 

And solving the mystery of how Clumsy Ninjas images kept appearing on my Facebook page also made me smile. Cheeky Harry!

Here's to more smiles and less discomfort tomorrow!
