What Are You Happy About Today?

[Chris]

Saturday is usually a recovery day for me, but I went out yesterday, so I thought I'd be dead today. When I checked my heart monitor this morning it actually told me I was doing better than normal, so of course I had to take advantage of an expectedly good health day!

I got through the majority of my admittedly over-ambitious chore list. I did some cleaning, animal maintenance, and got some cooking done. I baked a loaf of cheddar & sundried tomato bread, made a slow-cook lamb rogan josh (curry), and prepped ingredients for a sausage casserole to chuck in the slow cooker before I go to work tomorrow.

My partner didn't want to watch the next two episodes of Star Trek: Voyager because they're time travel episodes set in 1996. I'm not a fan of these types of episodes either in sci-fi as I prefer spaceship-based content to stuff based on Earth, but she's seen this show before and I haven't, so I watched them while she was out training today (she volunteers as a host at IRL events). They were actually so good! I'm glad I didn't outright skip them as she wanted to - especially as a new technology was discovered that I'm sure will influence future episodes (probably not a spoiler given these epsiodes aired 27 years ago but let's censor just to be safe) the holographic Doctor was given a device that allows him to exist outside of sickbay / holodeck.

My partner is due home within an hour and the plan for the evening is cuddling up together on the couch to watch more Voyager. I didn't really want to pause after finishing that two-parter earlier, so very much looking forward to it!

Aaand below is a little pic spam because I love my furry sons and they've been super sweet today.

Spoiler: Kittens

First thing this morning:



Sebastian joined me while I watched Voyager and contributed by being adorable.


The boys aren't allowed in the kitchen when I cook because they've no awareness of danger (I've a gas stovetop and use extremely sharp knives) . While I was cooking I put Cat TV on to keep them occupied. Delta was so enraptured I let him watch for another half hour after I came back through to the living room.

I love a productive day at home. I'm the primary homemaker and caregiver, in addition to working full-time, so it is absolutely a juggling act. Being disabled makes it a goddamn challenge, but I'm so proud when I'm on top of it.

I reached out to a friend who does photography to see if we can book a session soon for baby. So, excited at the idea of that.
Cleaned the house today which always makes me happy. A bit of a neat freak/germphobe.
Also got some decent sleep lastnight/this morning so that was helpful.

since I ranted abt what was frustrating me, I want to mention a few things that I'm happy about today

★ I made a breakfast burrito this morning with scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese, and salsa dip, and it was really tasty thinking about prepping my slow cooker for jambalaya a little later

★ I got to spend some time playing pickleball today, I'm getting better! also, the people I play with are very supportive and encouraging

★ speaking of playing sports, I'm gonna go home and take a shower. I think that'll help me feel better

★ I got a French vanilla mocha cappuccino for myself and my mum, and it was good hehe

★ this is kinda random, but I have a little Canada flag stuck in the vent of my car along with my pride flag, and I love seeing it wave. makes me feel very happy

★ today I went out to get a few things, and along with buying a bunch of fruits and veggies, I also bought some Sanrio merch! I found a shirt that has a few characters (Hello Kitty, My Melody, Pompompurin, Keroppi, etc) sitting on a rainbow, and I also found a Kuromi necklace which I really love

Spoiler: necklace

she's so smol hehehe

★ I'm gonna spend the evening taking notes for my class and also writing in my journal. I pray that I'm able to focus on it.

I really need to try to relax, and stay positive too. sometimes I just need to give myself a bit of space to rant, and then I'm okay.

My dad went to Monster Jam yesterday with his girlfriend and got shirts for my fiancé and I! I wasn't expecting anything but pictures (which I was excited for and they were awesome), but we each got a shirt of our favorite truck! My fiance got Megalodon and I got Grave Digger. Oh AND my dad got my shirt autographed :") ♡ He was going to get an autograph of Meg too but the lines were ridiculous so I don't blame him.

⟶ the mall was soooo busy today OTL
⤿ i got so many comments and compliments on my pink mask haha
⤿ omg cash office was wild; i found a counterfeit $100CAD bill but i just wanted to double check that it wasn't just a super worn out bill so i called for the store manager but even she was stumped so we called lost prevention (LP) but they also said they weren't super confident with their skills on counterfeits - long story short, it was confirmed to be a counterfeit so there was more paperwork that needed to be filled out for that but overall it was easy peasy lemon squeezy

⟶ went grocery shopping with my dad and sister and managed to get everything that i needed on my list

⟶ we had coupons for subway so my sister and i got sandwiches and ugh it was so good

⟶ i have the next two days off so time to sleep in !!!! ദ്ദി(｡•̀ ,<)~✩‧₊

Happy today because I got to sleep in and slept really well. It's also sunny out and I had a nice egg salad sandwich for brunch. I also got to play more Dokapon! Sword of Fury and ACNH as well with a good friend of mine. Looking forward to the Dallas Stars @ Vancouver Canucks game tonight. Should be a fun game to watch. Hope everyone has a great week ahead!

Today has been okay; my mood hasn’t been the greatest my day overall was not bad.

My mom made chili and corn bread today. The corn bread could have been better had my dad not erased the timer when he put his coffee in the microwave to heat it up ; it still was good.

I had a fun time playing Among Us tonight .

While playing Among Us, I saw Spanky pick up an ice cream toy by the cone part and carried it to her pizza mat. She didn’t do anything after but I thought it was really cute; I never saw her do that before. I got snuggles from both my girls earlier today .

I got my furniture in Pocket Camp more organized and a good amount sorted into the warehouse.

That’s it for now.
