Happy today because I got to play ACNH with a friend last night and it was SO much fun! Can't remember the last time I had fun playing that game with someone. I also slept in a bit today and have been productive at work, and looking forward to playing some Smash Ultimate later. Even though it's cold outside, the sun is out again as well. Hope everyone has a great Thursday!
Yesterday marked one year that I've been working in local government!
My partner joined me in celebrating with a takeaway and a glass of wine.
Got invited to interview for a Masters I could do completely remote around work.
Powered through an intense workload today despite being in so much pain I needed to use my cane. Every deadline met on time. And an engineer I've been trying to get to come out since April 2024 finally showed up today!
I'm home alone tonight and planning to get some heat on the achy areas and relax. One more day of work and then the weekend!
my eeg appointment finally came today, and my doctor was such a chill cool guy that the time of the test honestly flew by. he was talking to me about final fantasy and had some calming and lovely themes from different games playing in the background, OOT kakariko village brought back such nostalgia and felt so soothing to hear. im very happy that that's another test done and out of the way, looking forward to getting results soon! it was honestly really chill but the sticky residue from the electrodes was all in my hair, on my face and chest that i looked like a hot mess and i didn't realize till i entered the washroom and saw my reflection, made me chuckle was a little bit of a struggle to wash out but i hope its all gone! feeling really happy right now :-)
Today has been a good day even though tired from lack of sleep.
It was a good early short shift at work. It was an easy day as I was able to get some things done yesterday. My friend is back at work after bring out and since I had an easy day was able to help her get set up and grab whatever she needed from the freezer. I’m happy I was able to help her out.
The weather has been nice and warm but will be getting cold again tonight. So I picked up some things to make a beef stew and rolls for dinner tonight on my way out of work.
Was able to get some yard work done. Helped my mom with her taxes. I still have to do mine. Now going to relax with a good meal and probably play some ACNH.
☾ I played more Pokémon Omega Ruby today! I progressed some more in the story and caught the last member of my main team, a female Snorunt (and soon-to-be Froslass)!
☾ I went out in the snow for a little bit, and made a teeny-tiny snowman! I didn't stay out for too long since I’m still kinda sick, but since we get snow so rarely here, I know I’d be sad if I didn’t go out and enjoy it at least a little!
☾ Bought a Rainbow Heart Balloon from Roxxy!! ;w; I've got all the heart balloons I needed for my dream pride month lineup now, so super excited to bring that out in June!!
☾ Did a lot of sketching!! Glad to finally be feeling up to art stuff again—I don’t want to overdo it, but I’ve got a few things I really want to finish up by March and I was starting to get antsy ;u;
☾ Watched another episode of LDShadowLady’s Empires S1 series with my parents this evening!
- I ate some Mediterranean food at a restaurant that tasted yummy.
- Read a book in the evening.
- Woke up early at 5 AM and saw the sunrise. I went back to sleep though since I'm not a morning person.
- Worked on a sketch in pen and ink, though my technique was a bit rusty. I also worked on a drawing of Tom Cruise and made some progress in shading.
- Watched some of the second season of the Pokemon Horizons anime.
My mom bought me some cinnamon chips that I like when she went out shopping earlier.
Jewels behaved today when I was sleeping; I had trouble sleeping anyways but still it was nice I didn’t have to shut my door since I really feel bad and it isn’t fair to Spanky.
I got a bit more done on a drawing I’m doing. I’m happy with what I added today . I’m hoping I’ll think of more to add tomorrow.
My mood is a little better than earlier though I’m still feeling frustrated and tired.
I had a nice chat with a few friends; also got to see an adorable picture of @themysterybidder ’s Blossom .
In Genshin, I was able to upgrade one of Neuvillette’s artifacts since I found one with better stats. His energy recharge is getting closer to where guides recommend it to be at. Just need to adjust his crit rate and crit damage more; I’m hoping to optimize him as much as possible .
I'm ecstatic that Canada beat the US to win the 4 Nations Face-Off! I always want Canada to beat the US in sports, especially in hockey, but man, given the recent political tensions between the countries, it means a whole lot more to be able to beat them this time around.
My mom is getting a special iPad that helps her to talk and express herself. It has lists of words and pictures so she can say sentences without using her mouth. She's working with this language specialist company and it's completely covered so I'm really happy for her!! Since her stroke she can say 1 or 2 words but she gets mixed up a lot and says the incorrect word
