Managed to get my NFL order sorted today after phoning so hopefully that will arrive soon!
Did my good deed for the day and brought the bins in for our flat
About to volunteer with a pupil in around half an hour - then on hols for 2 weeks!
Just learned about the iron lamp gift in acnh , I don’t have the lamp but managed to do it with the shelf instead! Also I’m really enjoying playing the game again at the moment. Decorating my island has been really calming
Watched Limmy’s stream for the majority of the morning which I always love!
Made a start on my essay and I’m around halfway there!
Drew a little more on my iPad - for someone who complains about capitalism a lot I sure am sucked into their tricks but it’s such a good product and I’ve loved the freedom to draw whenever I want!
Today is my friday! it’s my birthday weekend! i’m leading a class that focuses on diversity and inclusion at the work place. i’m meeting with my mentor for my women’s focus group. they are going to start an LGBTQ focus group for my company that i am looking forward to join as an ally!
I’m seeing a lot of progressive moves being made at my company and it’s nice to see this company in the throes of the corporate world come out and go against and stay against the grain.
Wasn't expecting today to be a good day, I had to be up early for work (though it was only a half day at least) then I had to go for my blood tests, have them done every few weeks but can never get used to them as I hate needles , and it's the second year anniversary of my uncles sudden death which is hard all round but there have actually been some good parts I've been happy about:
my dad took one of the cars for a service and was out much longer then expected and no longer felt like going to do the grocery shopping till tomorrow so it's takeaway for dinner, we've picked pizza and while I don't actually like pizza the place we have it from has amazing cheesy garlic bread which is probably one of the best cheesy breads I've ever had so really looking forward to that
having been at work on early starts for the last few days I'm really looking forward to having the next few days off to catch up on some sleep and to have time to play games, in particular my newly arrived Pokemon X which I'm really enjoying so far but haven't had enough time to play yet so can't wait to have a few days focusing on that!
the flowers my mum arranged to be sent to my grandparents were delivered to them today and they really loved them and were touched by the gesture, obviously it would've been better if we could be with them today but I'm really happy that the little gift has put a smile on their face on a day I know they'll be struggling and now it's only a few days till we finally see them again, getting close to counting down the hours
Today definitely has been a much better day than yesterday. I got to sleep in and then have a delicious brunch. Then I’ve been able to play some games and actually have some time to myself without any distractions. Also, I think I’m going to be returning to martial arts on Saturday, which is also the day My Hero Academia season five premieres! Then I start training for my new job next week. Things are definitely looking up.
My husband and I got our first Covid shots today! Other than some slight swelling and discomfort in my arm, no major side effects. I'm also happy that tomorrow is Friday. I'm desperate for the weekend.
The past couple days have been a little rough on me, but I'm happy to say that I finally got Punchy's pic in New Leaf today!! He's been in my town for absolute ages and no matter what I did for him, he'd never given me his picture. I thought I'd just have to get it on April Fool's Day, but I'm happy to have gotten it before then! Also, one of my cats has been in an unusually cuddly mood this evening and he's being super adorable. ;v;
• went island hopping in nh and invited sherb!
• added the red rose and white pansy collectibles to my collection :’)
• worked on my nh park area and rooms quite a bit - i’m happy with how things are coming along!
• attended my last night school class!
• cuddled with my kitty
My boyfriend will come back home today, so that's always worth mentioning!
Also the sun seems to still be there, while they said it would be raining the whole day.
I also sell a game today, so money yay!
Had my last shift at my current job to get ready for my next job! I'm kinda sad to be leaving as my current job actually turned out quite alright after a while, but also glad to be moving onto something much better
The Sanrio amiibo cards sold out while I was entering my CC info; I was so stunned because they were in my cart! I can't really leave the house in the mornings, so I was resigned to trading on the forum. (It's not like the days of my youth where I could stand in line overnight like I did for the Wii).
A few minutes later, my sister sends me this photo:
I don't have words to express my joy. SHE IS SO AWESOME!!! <3
I got a conditional offer from the uni I wanted!! I was so frightened I’d messed up the interview so I’m really happy they’ve gotten back to me. It’s a big step as I’ll have to move from Scotland to England but I’m so ready for it!
Been drawing a lot today - finished one of my favourite pieces of art that I’ve done and I’ve had a lot of people contact me for artwork which makes me happy c:
I've been finding it so much easier to exercise after work since it's still relatively bright outside in the evening! I'm having lots of fun with mixing up workout routines to keep things fresh.
Downloaded Monster Hunter Rise, so I'm looking forward to playing that with my S/O having my S/O carry me in the missions this weekend.
My island is coming together nicely! I still have quite a few villager homes to move around and plenty of decorating to do, but I'm having lots of fun with it.
I’m happy that it’s a Friday and the weekend is almost here, and really excited to watch the season finale of Jujutsu Kaisen. I missed my antidepressant last night and only got around 4-5 hours of sleep (I stayed up playing Genshin Impact like a dumbo, lol). However, I’ve been able to cling onto my S/O today and be sweet to her, and she has been sweet to me. She’s all the medicine I need.
