It's a great day in the neighbourhood, just ask Mister Rogers.
I don't know how I got that song stuck in my head, I never ever watched it.
But, any day that I finish early-at 1:30pm, is a great day.
And.....any day where my husband helps me with the housework-today he dusted all of the wood furniture for me, is a great day.
And.....any day that is sunny and warm at this time of the year, it is 30C here is a great day.
And........any day that the vendor from the orchard from back near where we used to live is coming to the market in our city this weekend so that I can buy fresh apples, that is a great day. She stopped coming for a month or a little longer because they closed the market's building, but they set up outside in the parking lot. So, we will get a couple of 20 pound bags of them.
And.....any day that I get some pictures sent to me from my son of the babies at their first skating lesson of the year, which was last evening, is a great day for me.
They look so cute out on the ice, it looks like they've grown a foot in height from last winter, they were so small. Balance and skating comes very naturally to Harper, but Willow has to work at it a bit harder, but she needs to increase her own confidence, and the balance will follow.
What makes it a great day in your nieghbourhood today?

@wolfgirl569 He used to do all of the housecleaning for his Mom after she became a widow, and he was only a teenager back then.

@Juliaacv He is going strong. I prefer windows to dusting.

A great day in my neighborhood is when the weather outside is not too hot or not too cold.

Finishing early and a sunny 30C in October sounds like a perfect day to me. Fresh apples from the orchard lady will taste so good, twenty pound bags is a lot of apple pie. The skating pictures of the little ones sound so sweet, Willow will get there with time.

Well, Sadie is curled up next to me, and sunshine is coming through my sliding glass door. I’d say that makes it a good day in my neighborhood. I was awakened early this morning, but I got a nice nap a little while ago so that was a cherry on top.
It must be so fun to watch them learn to skate. It’s such a great activity for them to try.

That nap sounds like it made the day, I have to get up at 5am, and our clock is set 10 min earlier, so you know that is 4:50am, and I can use a nap on almost every day. I have been working these early hours long enough now that I literally cannot stay up past about 8pm and I cannot stay asleep past about 6am.

What makes a great day for me is having a really productive day with no mistakes done at work.
