  1. Meanwhile, Spring has sprung and Indie approves of the new recliner #smallpleasures #dogsofmastodon

  2. Every time the HBO Max app asks me "How are you enjoying the app?" I give it bottom marks. This pops up a dialog that says, "Please tell us how we can improve." I then type, "Fuck David Zaslav with a rusty chainsaw" and click "Submit." #SmallPleasures

  4. Warm enough to sit outside in the sun and eat my lunch today. #smallPleasures

  5. Thankful for small pleasures: my Senator's hold music isn't that standard issue hold music that is kinda a bop at first, but then gets grating.

    (looking at you @learningatcisco, j/k).

    You can call and hear it yourself; get your Senators' (and Representative's) contact info at congress.gov/members/find-your

    And while you're there, tell them how you feel about the cyber coup that's going on right now.

  6. There is something sublime about turning the page, finding yourself in the middle of a signature, and seeing the thread of a stitched binding.

    Oh, btw, it looks like this is going to be my main social media presence now. I'll be posting about a wider assortment of dorky topics than before.

  7. First night of running the radiators for the season.

    Hello warmth that isn't brutal summer heat!

  8. On chilly eve
    a cat warms
    by the fire
    gets toasty
    then hops up on your lap

    Hot water bottle on legs.

  9. Day 10 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK

    Struggling a bit today with lack of sleep, pain & stiffness following #TKR

    However, it's turned out to be a sunny evening and I'm enjoying #birdsong of blackbirds (Turdus merula) with the percussive cheeping of house sparrows (Passer domesticus).

  10. A snail just crawled from my thumb tip towards my hand. Such a lovely feeling, cool and very delicate.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I'll go and find another one 🐌

  11. First time in a while that I made a loaf of bread. It is such a comfort to smell and to eat. #smallpleasures #baking

  12. A really lovely article about cooking & eating together & community buidling. I really feel that organising small evening meals together is amongst one of the very best things we can do at the moment, for all round wellbeing. A fellow school mum suggested an evening like this, we are meeting at her house next week, can’t wait.

    (I didn’t actually read it due to being on holiday but I can’t wait to see y’all in person!)

  14. Experimenting with Substack.

    I have a blog on Wordpress, but I got intrigued by Substack, so I've started something there. It's free, of course, and I decided to focus on the small pleasures of daily life. Most recent post:

  15. Today the Moon 🌒 is in Taurus ♉️, bringing a focus to the senses.

    It's a great day to:

    ✨ get outdoors and take in the aromas 🌷
    ✨ make a nice meal to enjoy 🍲
    ✨ get your hands in the dirt, or around a warm cup of tea 🌱☕️

    #Beauty and #SmallPleasures are essential to #SelfCare!

  16. I changed the protective glass on my phone.

    It slid on the screen so absolutely perfectly I almost had a melt down.
    No air bubbles. All the corners fit perfectly.
    And I didn’t need to work for it. I put the glass on, and it adjusted itself perfectly.

  17. Well that was odd...
    Phone rings with a call from a number in Sweden.

    I answer...

    Female voice sings "Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?"

    They hang up.

    My day was improved by this random act of ABBA-Ness. Is this a thing the Swedish are now doing to cheer up people on other parts of the world?

  18. Turns out if you ctrl+c a chart in Excel and ctrl-v it into PowerPoint, there's your graph in your presentation. No screenshots needed! #SmallPleasures

  19. Libby (the library ebook app) thanks you for returning #books early with a virtual bouquet of flowers. A year or two ago, my son discovered that if you tap the bouquet, a fountain of flowers will gently cascade over your screen.

    Such a simple moment of whimsy, and it makes me happy every single time.

  20. This day has gone on far too long.

    The consolation prizes of it ending nearly at 10pm are the stars as I walked to the car, and coming home to the mountain of raspberries I got from our local shop. The neighbour works there and they needed to shift the fruit at the end of the day. I came away with 6lbs of strawberries and 3 lbs of raspberries for £4 total. Supper is a vat of raspberries tonight. ... with a cup of hot water with a splash of apple juice.
