What Are You Happy About Today?
- Thread starter Aquasplash
- Start date
Today's honestly been a really great and relaxing day! I got up early and was productive at work, and it went fast. Then I played games for awhile while talking to a good friend of mine. Ordered groceries and I had an apple for the first time in awhile, and it was great. Will probably reward myself with an unhealthier snack later. I wish every day could be as relaxing as today. Hope everyone had a good day!

☾ I made some progress on a personal art piece I’ve been working on!
☾ Got to play a few days in Story of Seasons!! I’ve befriended my alpaca enough that she thankfully doesn’t flee from me on sight anymore ;u; and I think I’m prepared for the Fashion Fiesta next time!!
☾ I’m all done with Pocket Camp Complete’s scavenger hunt event, made it to pro rank with the HHA, and started to work on revamping my campsite!
☾ Watched another episode of LDShadowLady’s Empires S1 series with my parents this evening!

I'm just a ghost.
I recovered from the Stomach Flu and I am making DOUBLE sure to check to see if food properly prepared. Food Poisoning is no joke.
My moods been a bit down with not feeling well and the cold weather but still plenty of things to be happy about.
Finally feeling better then earlier this week. My Aunt is visiting from out of state and we got to see her on Tuesday. It was nice going out to lunch with her. We played card games and got to catch up.
It’s been raining a lot so haven’t done much outside. Started working on a new drawing. Been playing and working on my two ACNH towns.
Work was good today. It was an early short shift and was productive. Got the living room cleaned up and organized this afternoon. Spent the evening playing more ACNH.
Hope everyone had a great day.

I wasn't expecting to post again so soon, but I have to add I'm also happy today because I just found out the Dallas Mavericks defeated the OKC Thunder in OKC 121-115. I didn't even realize they were playing today, so it was extra special. I also got an e-mail saying the pre-order I placed for my Genshin Impact Fischl figure in 2023 has finally shipped, which means it should be here within the next several weeks! I'm SO excited! Lastly, I'm playing Wuthering Waves and doing Roccia's story quest to end the day, and Pero, her companion, is so cute. Couldn't have asked for a better ending to the week.
I'm happy that my mom didn't call me today, not because I don't like talking to her, but because she's called me 3-4 times a day all week with major issues. So not having her call today gave me a break and hopefully means things are going better for her.
I'm also really glad the weekend is almost here because I haven't slept well all week either.

For the past few weeks I’ve been really fed up and extremely unmotivated. I usually like to try and remain positive, but it’s difficult with persistent health and personal issues. However, I still have a few things I’ve been happy about!
- I’ve been playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 on my laptop. I’ve not played it for ages and really enjoyed it. I loved being absorbed in the scenery and playing in the dark make a special atmosphere! I wish I could bottle that feeling.
- The battery in my electric toothbrush was declining at, so I got myself a Sonic toothbrush. It’s so much better than my old toothbrush. My teeth feel so much cleaner and there is already hardly anything to floss before or after brushing!
- I briefly posted about this, but my 2 Year Anniversary of getting Blossom was on Tuesday! I love her so much. I took her into the local pet store and as soon as she walked in a large dog barked at her, Blossom just stood there wagging her tail! She got a new sweatshirt. I make a joke that she can hide treats in her pocket! She hates the hood! I also got her some Doggy Wine, a Honking Duck, a squeaky Burger, a squeaky Hot Dog and some treats! As soon as I honked the duck she jumped up onto me in the store! She also got a Garfield toy, a Valentine’s Rose, a Woofany and Co. Diamond ring and some new food and Crunchy Cheese Treats! I honestly don’t know what I would do without her.
- Earned more coins in Fitness Boxing 3, so purchased some more clothes for my trainer Bernardo.
- I’ve also become a little bit addicted to sliding puzzles on my phone! Recently on The Crystal Maze I saw one and I always thought they must be difficult to complete. I’ve started off with the numbered ones and not doing too badly. I’ve imported a photo of Blossom and managed to complete that.
- Last but by no means least, I’m going to admit I’ve never had an interest in anime. (Sorry anime fans!) However, there was a breakthrough last week. I got a recommendation email from Netflix and I saw the trailer for ‘Sakamoto Days’. I loved it! So, I watched episodes 1 and 2 last week and looking forward to episode 3 tomorrow! I love Taro Sakamoto and his expressions! He's definitely my favourite character!
- Had a good appointment with my psychiatrist. He increased my Thorazine to help with my paranoia and other symptoms. See him again in 2 weeks. Hopefully the increase helps
- Slept really well. I somehow managed to wake up 10 minutes before I had to leave to get to my appointment and I made it on time. Had to throw on clothes and rush out the door but I got there lol I set my alarm for 5am but I did the “I’m just gonna rest my eyes for a few minutes thing” and suddenly it was 7:40am
- Papi is adjusting well. He’s a good boy
- I feel a lot better mentally today and more grounded than I did yesterday. Yesterday I was dissociating really badly and felt horrible.
- Took a nice shower and feel fresh
- I painted with two of my friends over video chat yesterday, it was a lot of fun. I’ll post a pic of the painting in my art thread today soon. I painted Togepi from Pokemon
- The heating/AC people finally came today and changed the filters after like 3 reschedules
- The cookbooks my friend in Canada shipped me arrived today finally! They’re awesome. I’ll edit this post with a pic soon, I’m trying to get into cooking and baking more this year

you make me wanna make you fall in love ♡
♡ My Gamersupps order came today! I'm REALLY happy about it. I missed the Waifu Cup restock (even though it had only been an hour since they released one, and it was already sold out by the time I had the money to make my purchase -.- ).. but I got this super gorgeous purple/pink amoeba patterned shaker cup! Along with a flavor tub of their energy/water enhancer powder. I can't say the name of it here because they are known for having pretty.. weird names for their flavors. I'm so excited to stop drinking coffee and soda. LOL. I hope this helps me in succeeding with that ;w; I plan on having one Gamersupps drink a day, then I'll go back to water ^_^ I also got some free samples for my order! I'm really stoked to try them all 
♡ I'm really close to getting Ellen's W-Engine in Zenless Zone Zero! I think I'm roughly 16 pulls away ^^ I'm contemplating using my guaranteed 5* to get Astra Yao, but I'm still.. reeeeallly unsure T^T I know she's a cracked support and all, but I want to save my guarantee for a character I REALLY want (Burnice), until I can get a better job that gives me more hours >< I have an extremely bad habit of spending on games, so I would like a job that provides me with more hours so I can spend more on games HAHA.
♡ Today is Friday, so I'll be getting McDonalds for dinner as my little weekly treat I'm not sure what I want to get though.. I wonder if my mom will get me something healthier instead. I know Subway is still a fast-food restaurant, but I think it's one of the 'healthiest' places out of all of the fast-food joints I enjoy ^^;; I'm really trying to cut back on unhealthy things, because my goal for 2025 is to treat my body better and get into healthier habits that make my body happy!
♡ I got to go to therapy in person this week. It was VERY NICE. I do not like doing telehealth appointments with therapy because it feels ten times harder to get my points across over the phone. I also get distracted incredibly easy if I'm not in a room that won't.. distract me, lol. After therapy, my aunt treated me to some shrimp fried rice for dinner! The shrimps were so juicy
And bigger than the place I usually get shrimp fried rice from. The shrimps were HUGE!!!
♡ The Shenhe print I ordered for my boyfriend should be here soon! I checked the tracking recently, and it seems there's a delay due to the weather conditions in SoCal ;w; I don't mind the delay, I just hope the package doesn't get damaged or anything.. that's my main concern. Other than that, I'm pleased it'll be here soon! I waited over a month for it to get signed ><
♡ I'm going to be hunting Shaymin on my favorite Pokemon browser game for my birthday (2/24) ^_^ I'm almost done collecting enough summons to reach my goal of 450! :3 I'm excited. Hopefully, I get the rarest sprite (which is called a melan). Shaymin may not be my favorite legendary, but I wanted something somewhat easy; since the summons are pretty common and not difficult to collect. :3
That's all for now, I think. :3

Happy today because I'm off work already, and my family and I ordered BBQ from one of our favorite restaurants. Can't wait to eat it. I've also ACTUALLY slept every night for an entire week+ now, which is huge for me considering I've been struggling with my sleep for awhile. It's also nice and sunny out today and I'm having fun with the Genshin Impact Lantern Rite event. Last, but certainly not least, tonight the Dallas Stars play the Las Vegas Golden Knights, and it'll be on ESPN, so I'm looking forward to watching it. Hope everyone has an amazing weekend!
- I woke up feeling better, I think my flu is gone so now it's just a lingering cough which I can deal with. I still didn't go visit my mom today though just to be safe.
- my mom's birthday is coming up and luckily I already went shopping for her gifts last week so now I don't have to scramble last minute. I got her a bunch of new clothes, some squishmallows and a reusable water bottle. I also found some valentines day stickers she can use at her card making group.
- hello kitty island adventure is gonna be released for the switch soon. Idk what the game is even really about but I blindly trust it. Until then I'm just playing stardew valley for like the 9th time. This time I picked the beach farm to make it a challenge cause the sprinklers don't work in the sand

Oof, I haven't been posting here in almost two weeks. But rest assured I'm doing okay, especially today! I'll have to recap the stuff I've done in the last couple of weeks some other time. 
- I had the day off from work which means I get to relax at home all day!
- I finally received my blue car toy collectible after participating in a MK8D session that was held earlier in the month!
- Played Gran Turismo 7 and art of rally I'm starting to get the hang of driving in the latter since I'm still not very used to driving on narrow roads with tight and twisty roads from chase cam view. I also like how even though the drivable cars themselves aren't officially named, all of them are based on their real counterparts!
- My mom bought some food from Burger King for my sister and I. They have a short promo going on right now where their whopper burger is only $5 which is a steal hehehe.
- I've been making sprite art on Inkscape! It took me more time than I would like to admit since I kept making changes due to the proportions being off oops. Won't exactly reveal the details yet, though.
- After well over a month, I got to play Among Us again hosted by @/Dunquixote! I had a bunch of laughs playing along with @/BetsySundrop, @/Dinosaur, @/Halloqueen, @/TN4U, and @/S.J.!
- I'm getting more and more excited as each day passes because I'll be getting to see @/xSuperMario64x again in a couple of weeks after almost a year.
We got a bunch of stuff planned together, especially with the Canadian International Auto Show that'll happen during his visit!
Last, but certainly not least, tonight the Dallas Stars play the Las Vegas Golden Knights, and it'll be on ESPN, so I'm looking forward to watching it. Hope everyone has an amazing weekend!
And the Stars WIN 4-3 the final, behind Jake Oettinger, my favorite player, ROBBING the Golden Knights 2-3 times at the end of the game from scoring!!!

☾ I found a site I used to make some cute pronoun blinkies!! ;v; are they still technically “blinkies” if I saved most of them as still images, or are they just small banners… I’ve got a bunch of seasonal ones saved too, so I can rotate them out throughout the year!
☾ Worked on some art today!
☾ I cut my hair! I was going to wait until the weather was warmer, but the length it was at was bothering me, and I wasn’t really digging the look so much anymore either. I think it looks really cute now though!
Doing something different with my hair always makes me feel refreshed
☾ My mom and I watched the VOD of SolidarityGaming’s recent Phasmophobia stream with GeminiTay, LDShadowLady, and TheOrionSound!
☾ I won the spring Fashion Fiesta in Story of Seasons!! It was a lot of fun too, especially with getting to fully customize my model—this might end up being one of my favorite festivals! Also continued working on improving the quality of some of my crops and befriending more of the local wildlife c:

I made them on blinkies.cafe! ^^
I had a pretty good day. At work, I attended a couple of meetings where we just brainstormed solutions for our current project. I really enjoy that kind of thing. It was very low stress and fun.
I left work early for a doctor appointment and my vitals all look good. I discussed something with her that's been upsetting me since my surgery and it felt good that she validated my concerns. She offered a few generic suggestions to get back to my old self, but recommended I reach out to the surgeon for more specific information since that's not her specialty. I've already sent my surgeon a message through my Patient Portal and hope to have a response next week.
I did some self-care this evening which included a full yoga session. I haven't done that since the operation, only a few stretches here and there as needed. I'm going to try committing to a daily session like I was doing pre-surgery. I always feel relaxed and better afterwards, but sometimes it's hard to get the motivation to start.
My husband found a gym that he will hopefully like. He had a consultation this week and starts his first session with a personal trainer on Monday. He's been on a path to get healthier and in shape for the past few years, but reached the limit of what he could do on his own. He's been wanting to do this for a while, so I told him I'd cover the cost as his Christmas present.
Speaking of Christmas presents, I never mentioned what I got for Christmas. I've been talking about playing AC:GC again for a while, but I've never really searched for it. My wonderfully hubby bought me the original game and a controller so I can play it on our Wii! I'm not exaggerating. I literally cried.
@Autumn247 You have a new kitty! He's beautiful!
