A string quartet of three young women and one young man performing with a woman who is singing and playing a keyboard for the piece wherein I shot this photo. They are performing in a chapel with low-key decoration
Lovely concert tonight with Moira Smiley and the Rasa String Quartet @mountauburncem.bsky.social . 🎶 #TinyJoys
Today my #TinyJoys was a kind person and friend of my coworker gifting me a PINK DRINK meant for him but since he wasnt there so i had it bestowed upon me :3 it was so cute.
View of my lap, with a colourful modern quilt on it, being worked on. I'm stitching lime green curves into a purple and quarter circle. The other fabrics have been quilted in different colours. A small black cat is happily sacked out on my lap, her little face sticking out under the quilt, as if she were tucked into bed.
View of said cat now the quilt has been put aside, although she's still on two other quilts. She's lying on her side, back leggies sticking straight out in front of her, and you can just see one of the white patches on her belly.
#TinyJoys is quilting with a small cat sitting determinedly on my lap under the quilt, enjoying how the lime green thread looks against the purple shot cotton fabric. It's not a colour combination I think I've used before, and it's so vibrant.
Spent the evening making and listening to a collaborative playlist (with my spouse and the daughter-in-law-elect) of songs with questions. #TinyJoys
I recommend adding #TinyJoys to your feeds. I also like the birds feed.
#Tinyjoys: squeezing in the bare minimum* cellist practice of an evening come what may.
*Seriously, it was 15 mins
Little notepad with Office for National Statistics logo at the bottom. I am very easily pleased.
Ooh got picked for a survey and got ONS swag #tinyjoys

Tea in my lovely new mug #TinyJoys
The sound of nesting herring gull chicks through the bathroom ventilation #TinyJoys
What a wonderful thing! #TinyJoys
Cat and #hedgehog from the garden wildlife cam. (No idea whose cat) Hedgehog is Tony, notable by a few errant v long spines and huge claws (not that you can see them in this clip) #TinyJoys #nature
(And the metal silhouette ‘hog, left of Hedgehig House, is Rusty, our new garden addition)

A piece of college ruled paper covered in badly worded, not quite as badly spelled Ho Chunk. No English words in sight.
#TinyJoys The smol pride of writing out my Hoocąk homework w/o checking notes or dictionary, without adding an English translation, knowing it’s full of mistakes but that trying to just *go for it* is pushing my language mind
#tinyjoys A colleague doing both services thus giving me time to do the dull but necessary Order of Service post Holy Week count. Another colleague making me some new purificators I can take to OFM. Being busy with visitors but from an internal point of view being very quiet as everyone is on break
It's slightly worrying that I was warm enough sitting out until gone 8pm in a t-shirt at the allotment but it was also very lovely. My broad beans are coming on. And more native bluebells. No pics as my phone stayed home to charge

..and here he is encountering the resident garden #hedgehog “huff, huff, huff, huff!” #TinyJoys #wildlife
Last night’s #hedgehog release of Tony into the garden was a success. Here he is investigating the feeding station just after he left his carrier… 🦔 #TinyJoys
My apricot labradoodle sitting in the sun next to a redbrick wall.
The dog's not the only one enjoying some gorgeous spring sunshine in the garden, but she makes for a much more adorable photo than I do ... 😅😎

The sun is shining and Mozart's Sinfonia Concertante -- which I love, love, love -- is playing on radio. 🥲💛

Wow! What incredible art… and what skilled craftwork. #tinyJoys
THESE ARE MADE FROM YARN!

Last week the roofer fixed one of the leaky roofs.
The rain today is doing it's best to test the result.
So far, all is dry in that room.
hey so my #TinyJoys (hopping on this more routinely for mental health reasons) for this last 2 days is that i cooked a big meal for my roomies and we all had a good family dinner last night :) Im happy about that. im going to try to get everyone to eat at the table again tonight. Its nice to do.
#tinyjoys: I got three dead air conditioners out to the curb with their city pickup stickers on them. I am an old lady and the a/cs have been dead for like ten years. Plus I got the estimate for having my hazardous waste (old paint and thinner, mostly) picked up and disposed of properly. Progress!
About to log out for 2 more days of holiday. Some Passover #tinyjoys: I made my delicious gooey chocolate pecan orange macaroons last night, & mixed berry matzo meal muffins, &--for the first time--mandlebrot, which turn out to be really easy to make & very delicious (tasted just like mandelbrot!)
A magnolia flower, creamy white with purple on the outside and center. In the background, our messy yard
A bright yellow wood poppy blooms, with water droplets on the petals.
A native fringed bleeding heart blooms early, with bell shaped pink flowers. All around are last year’s oak leaves.
A surprise in the pile of leaf litter- a tiny spring peeper!
Retreating into the things that make me happy.

Haven't been doing enough #TinyJoys when everyone who uses the hashtag is a joy, and when focusing on joy where we can may be all we can do
Sea with blue sky above.
From leaving a meeting with colleagues, to having my feet in the sea, in less than 15 minutes. I don't think I will ever get over the joy of living near the coast again. #TinyJoys
