Word of the Week #40 – Smile

Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week, a nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is smile and you can read more about that below.

I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase but please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week.

There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week and I will add posts to Mix Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in. If you comment or tweet then please use the hashtag #WotW

Word of the Week is open from 6am on Friday Morning to 12 noon on Monday. Plenty of time to join in!

If you are unfamiliar with the Word of the Week linky then please feel free to ask any questions. New linkers are always welcome, we love to hear what you have been up to in the past week.

MY WORD OF THE WEEK

Smile

I’m doing Blogtober again this year, it’s a great way of connecting with new bloggers. But it also means lots more blog posts than usual. However, there are no real rules, so you can post as much or as little as you like. You can stick to the prompts or write your own stuff.

Today’s Prompt – Smile

Today’s prompt is smile and as I was looking for a word of the week I thought I’d go along with this. So, what makes me smile?

I’ve had a difficult couple of weeks health wise so it’s always nice to settle down in the evening with a good book. I’ve been taking a different path to my usual reading material and this week I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading ‘I Capture the Castle’ by Dodie Smith. Thanks for the reccomendation Enda.

I was also made to smile when I woke up the other morning to find my Little Man sitting up in bed with a huge green balloon on his head.

I smiled when I got my appointment come through with my consultant next week. I hadn’t heard anything and believed I’d been forgotten about again. But no, I am summoned to see the great one, healer of all things rare. (I can dream can’t I?)

More Smiles

Other things that have made me smile; My girl’s excitement over their creative writing classes; the brown, yellow, red and orange colours of the leaves in the trees at the bottom of my garden; the good news that my old cat is not as poorly as we thought she was and all she needed was a quick injection (and £115) and she’s well again; the new game my kids have been playing on the Switch (Unamed Goose Game) it’s so stupid it’s hilarious; Ash (my other cat) coming over after a disappearing act which was quite out of character; New episodes of Impractical Jokers, I don’t know why but these stupid guys make me laugh so much…and I’m going to see them live next week!

So lots for me to smile about! What’s made you smile this week?
