What Are You Happy About Today?

I think I may finally have a good idea for my museum entrance next to my colosseum. I’m really excited especially since I wanted to make some form of Fire Emblem 3H reference but wasn’t quite sure how. It will only be loosely based but I think that makes it more fun and interesting and gives me more freedom to do what I want. This works well since I was reluctant about moving the fossil that I have out on display.

Also, kitty snuggles 🥺. I was going to take a shower soon but then my kitty curled up in my arms and under the blankets with me. 🥺 I love her so much. she makes it so difficult to leave my bed though
 
I’ve had a pretty nice day today 🥰

-My first package came! For some reason they’re shipping my book separately from the mug even though they’re both from the same bookstore. Initially I was going to wait until Fathers Day or my dads birthday to give him the mug but... I’m super impatient, lol. I gave it to him today and he seemed to like it! I think I mainly caught him by surprise by giving him the gift.

-This is more of a yesterday thing but I made peach muffins that turned out really yummy! They have cinnamon and allspice in them and a brown sugar crumble on top. I’m really pleased with how they turned out (although I’ll use less peaches next time) and I want to make blueberry muffins next!

-I went to the grocery store! We only needed a few things so it was one of those odd in between trips. We were out of certain things that couldn’t wait until the next big shop but honestly I prefer smaller shops anyways. I’m not good at packing grocery bags so when I have less things it’s easier to do. I picked up some yeast and pizza sauce so I can make a pizza tomorrow!

-... I made pizza dough today! It’s resting/rising in the fridge right now so I can make the rest of it tomorrow. I’m really excited since I’ve never made pizza from scratch before! Well. Mostly from scratch, I decided to just tackle the dough this time and bought store made pizza sauce lol.

-It’s been nice and rainy lately. I’m sort of dreading the incoming summer weather so I’m really enjoying this cooler spring weather while it’s here. Also! I saw a cardinal in our yard today! We have a blue jay come by sometimes too that’s always really neat to see. 🥰
 
The weather has been really warm the past few days, but not too hot. A thunderstorm passed through this afternoon, but it was quick and gone by the time I got off work to walk my dog.

I'm also happy that I've been able to complete a few things this week so my work queue is looking more manageable.
 
-I've been having troubled sleep lately/waking up feeling unrested and it's been rough on my mood, so I tried getting myself up earlier than usual and I'm feeling generally better and less stressed today! Hopefully this keeps up. c:
-One of my cats cuddled with me and stretched his paw out over my arm 😭 it was so cute... Later my other cat came to hang out with me for a little while too!
-Did a little work on a new embroidery floss bracelet and another little creative project, and I'm feeling good about both! They've been a nice way to relax a little and I'm happy with how they're coming out so far.
 
I got a new mousepad that has a plush and cute corgi's butt as wrist support~ It even comes with a little armrest for typing on your keyboard, which is also quite nice. So far, I'm pleased with the quality and comfort, so it seems to be a pretty good deal for the price! (I got it here, for anyone who's interested.)
 
I had a pretty decent day today ☺

-Had a restful little sleep-in this morning which was much needed
-Talked with my mom on the phone for a while
-Did a lot of unpacking and organizing in my kitchen, trying to take a lot of care to put everything away in the best places
-Put away a bunch of clothes in my closet AND got my boyfriend's closet set up for him because I'm that nice
-Went for a little walk around my neighbourhood
-Hung up a sheet to act as a temporary curtain and I think it's going to make a big difference in my room for now until I can get proper window coverings
 
For the longest time I couldn't find the chainsaw man manga vol 2 as it was soldout everywhere but I finally found a seller on Ebay & it arrived this morning, I can finally continue reading now 😊
 
The furniture on our balcony became a little grimy over the winter and now that the weather is becoming warmer I finally got around to cleaning it this afternoon and I had the best time drinking tea and reading in the fresh air 🥰 It even rained for a while which made it even better 🥰 (our balcony is a good size and partly covered so I didn’t get wet) My mental health hasn’t been the best lately, I really needed this 🥺
 
I got to make a pronoun pin today and I'm so happy 🥺

Today is my 24th birthday!! I got up late and had kolaches and icecream to eat. 😋 Going to play some Pokemon Uranium most likely and then go to a new place for dinner tonight to celebrate. Then I’ll be going to a new museum I haven’t been to before later this week! Making good progress on my job research/search as well. I may work on that more today if I’m feeling up to it. Overall a really great week this week. :)
 
I am extremely excited about some artwork that I am having commissioned by Nef. He is so extremely talented! I am so happy for him getting so many commissions. 😊 (a bit worried about him too since he has a shop too 🙂). I’m also happy I managed to trick him into stepping into a pitfall last night 😈.

I have been browsing the museum and the shops (inspite being kinda broke) and just looking at everyone’s creativity just makes me happy and makes me want to try doodling some more even though my drawings and coloring lack the proper techniques and quality. It is still fun and relaxing :). Problem is even when not drained, I always usually talk myself out of it. This week I feel really drained but may try before saturday when my sister and her family visits and before the tournament starts.

Oh and yesterday a friend I haven’t seen for awhile online messaged me and she’s doing much better. I have been so worried about her and was so happy to talk to her again. One other friend of mine has been doing better too :). I really hope things continue looking up for them. I am really glad I met them. 😊
