Introduction

I moved to Shropshire from Tooting a couple of years ago, and what with flooding and all, the move has not been without it's problems.

However, I always count my blessings and one day decided I'd post a daily blessing onto Facebook. The post would be "in praise of" something that I'd enjoyed, or that had enriched my life, the day before. The idea was that after a year I'd have 365 "blessings" I could look at when I needed a tonic. And hopefully provide some entertainment to others along the way - we really are a nation of whingers and (unusually for me) I thought I'd join the other side and spread some love!

The challenge is that my daily life is very routine. I gamble, walk the dog, eat and drink, and watch TV. That's about it.

Some of my friends have suggested I do these as a blog, and as they seem to be disappearing off the bottom of Facebook that's what I'll do.
