What Are You Happy About Today?

I've finally started doing the little game I decided to make for the gender reveal of my baby.
Now I just have to hope that I will be actually able to know the gender tomorrow, lol.
I any case, it's much fun to do and I hope my fiancé will enjoy the little hunt :3
 
I received that big paycheck today, and I’m really happy about it. I’m doing a lot better both financially, mentally, emotionally, and physically than I was last year. I’ve noticed significant growth in myself during that time, and so have my friends. Just got to keep going up from here. 😤
 
  • Went to the cinema for the first time this year to see the newest conjuring film - the devil made me do it! I absolutely loved it, Vera farmiga and Patrick Wilson are my faves and I’m hoping for another conjuring film already lmao!
  • Did a Pokémon card trade with a friend, so excited to receive her letter 😊
  • Managed to send off some important uni stuff today, feeling relieved that another thing is ticked off the list!
 
The hospital I work at gave everybody a 3% raise, but when my manager told me my new hourly rate it was actually a 6% increase, so I must have gotten another separate one for my performance review. I'm also slated to start working straight days at some point soon, which I'm really excited about.
 
I was able to switch my work half day next week. I usually work 9 hours for four days, and then 4 hours Wednesday. I have something coming up on Friday next week and needed the day off. I felt like 9 hours was too much to ask, so I just kind of switched my half day to Friday and asked for the day off, so it’s only 4 hours off.
the scheduling is done through an automatic system, so it’s hard and so complicated.

Anyways I’ve been trying to cheat the robotic system since yesterday. It was finally approved. I’m happy 😍
 
after working on this for like 4 hours I finished decorating my grad cap for Saturday's commencement!

It seems like my brother's SNAP benefits were finally renewed. I was afraid from the beginning that I was going to mess up the application and then it was just sitting in pending status for so long that I got really anxious. But his benefits are showing active again so that's a relief.

I'm also very happy that tomorrow is Friday and I have all of next week off to celebrate my anniversary. I really need this break right now so I hope everything goes smoothly.
 
Finished moving about 75-80% of my stuff to my new place today. I’ll finish moving the rest on Saturday which will also be the day I officially move in. Mostly it’s just moving my guinea pigs left along with a couple more of my things.

It’s so surreal right now and hasn’t fully hit me yet. I’ll finally be moving out of my parents place more than likely permanently this time. I’m probably about as excited as I am nervous.
 
today was,, incredibly boring and uneventful but thankfully!! the vibes didn’t feel as off today as they did yesterday. 🥴

• worked on my nh island for the first time in a while + i think i’m coming close to completing another area! 🥳
• completed an assignment for school that i’d been putting off for weeks. it feels great to finally have it done and to not have to worry about it anymore.
• created an “ask me anything” thread and somehow?? it didn’t flop?? :’o it’s not a big deal at all but i’m still grateful for everyone who responded. 😅
• posted a new island journal entry!
• drew some food artwork for @kiwikenobi and despite it not being the greatest, she still gave me 100 tbt for it. :’) tysm again!
 
I’m really happy about how kind and encouraging everyone has been about my art. 😊 I was really nervous about posting it and a bit embarrassed, but I think I will continue for now if people really like seeing it and to also help me see how I improve if I keep at this (if that is possible without knowing proper drawing and coloring skills).

I drew something for my friend @Moo_Nieu and I was so happy that she liked it :). I was worried since she is a really good artist and I am far from reaching that level of drawing skills. I felt like my drawings aren’t a good enough thank you gift in return for her really nice and adorable digital art. I think most of the drawing was good for my level of drawing but the bike’s wheel and the feet were a bit of a problem. 😬 (The offer to redo it is still open and will always be open, if you’re reading this Moo and want changes :)).
 
@Saylor just sent me a chocolate cake collectible for my birthday!! She is the absolute sweetest friend oh my goodness 🥺💕 I will have to come back and write more about my day tomorrow (I mean here’s to hoping it’s a good day lol) but I wanted to come write about it now because seeing that made me so happy. Which sounds silly since it’s just a little cake collectible but birthdays can be hard and bring up conflicting feelings for me but that was such a nice and unexpected surprise 💕
 
-Feeling much better today than I did yesterday! Still have a little bit of a sore arm, but it's not really enough to bother me—I'm still taking things very easy, but I'm just glad to be feeling well enough to actually do some stuff again ahaha.
-Watched ABD Illustrate's video on designing side characters for his story, Heartless! I'm already so interested in the story's concept and I can't wait to see where he goes with it from here.
-Ordered a few little acrylic charms/stands to celebrate getting fully vaccinated and they arrived today! 🥰
 
One more thing I’m happy about—I am a bit embarrassed. So Nef finished my art commissions yesterday but I didn’t realize he posted them and made the final touches then so I didn’t thank him until now. >< Thanks so much again, @NefariousKing and for accepting my requests including the one with my kitty! They turned out just the way I wanted 😊 Your style is just so adorable. 🥺

He made me Hubert and another character (not based on any game or anime character) holding one of my kitties 🥰 (you can find them in this post). I am so extremely happy with both of them! The book Hubert is holding is so cute too 🥺.

Sorry for babbling. Just been finding so much joy in the art I receive from trades and inspired to maybe one day be able to try digital art and invest more into improving my skills. :)
 
I woke up in a good mood today! Feels like it's been days since last time. It feels good to be energetic and productive!

However I need to stay calm and do small activity only because of the surgery, but I'm healing really well and I feel almost completely stabilized since. I have my new phone, the weather is nice.

I think I want to go out and collect some brueberry leaves to make tea later, it'll be the first time I try it and I'm excited for the result!
 
After a full week of rain, the weather finally begins to feel like summer. Just mowed the lawn and took care of the garden, everything has an amazing "freshly cut grass" smell now.
