Five Friday Happy Bringers 8/22/25

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. To show you (yet again) that it doesn’t take very much to make me happy, I was thrilled (maybe with a small “t” but still thrilled) seeing these neat “tissues don’t have to be in a rectangular or square box” Kleenex in the bathroom at my therapist’s office. TMI?

2. Sort of related (at least in color) to Happiness Bringer #1 above, the first day of Autumn 2025 is one month from today!

Of course it’s 90° with a Real Feel near 100 today in Savannah, but at least we can dream/remember …

3. Robert and I took part in the Savannah Photo Club’s Third Sunday Photo Walk last Sunday morn. Such fun!

There we are, in the middle of the frame, a bit blurry.

For two hours we traversed around Savannah’s Historic District, snapping pictures left and right.

We plan to make the Savannah Photo Walk part of our monthly agenda.

4. After the photo walk, we toured the Savannah College of Art and Design’s Museum of Art display, A Gathering of Bells.

Upon entry, you were giving a white glove for your dominant hand, so that you could ring the clappers in the bells!

“As museum visitors strike the clapper against the shell, their action becomes participation and metaphor simultaneously: we hear the ringing bell vibrate and sense how our gestures reverberate outward toward others.”
