What Are You Happy About Today?

So I bought myself a few treats back when I had my birthday, and they've started to arrive now!! Today this beautiful pin and charm I ordered came in the mail and I wasn't even expecting them today!! cx It was such a lovely surprise and I'm just so happy to have them! 💙

I am now coloring my drawing and so far it is going pretty good :). I wasn’t sure I’d be able to get the colors right on a character’s pants but I tried blending two colors and I think it looks pretty much the same color as in the reference, or at least close enough.

I am also enjoying chatting with a friend. 😊
 
This is more of a Stuff That Happened Yesterday post but still!

As part of Phase One we're allowed to have non-essential stores open again which is really nice. I went out later last night (an hour or so before closing so the shops weren't too busy) and was able to pick up some things. Like socks. Socks weren't deemed essential but I definitely needed new ones as the little sock elves in my house took most of mine. I found some cute ones which is really nice! I also got some new hair ties/scrunchies in pretty pastel colours! I swear I used to have dozens of hair ties but somehow I lost them all and only had two?? I'm glad to have more.

I was also able to pick up some new purple thread which I need to start sewing with my purple fabric. I have to fuss around with a mock up before I actually sew with my purple fabric but still! While I was there I also found this adorable little flower buttons - I think they're daisies? And the centre is a peach colour that is the same shade as the dress I finished making! I think I'll add the little button as an accent to the dress. It won't actually close anything but it'll be cute.
 
I went above and beyond for Father’s Day and got my dad not one, not two, but three whole gifts, all with a card that he will really like! I’m also going to be filling in for my work, going the extra mile to help out. Now that my goals are more realistic in how I want to improve, I’m glad I’m making more progress on them! :D
 
I finished my piano recital! While I was super nervous I dealt with it and did well. Ultimately I’m glad it’s over!

I also got to have a nice Fathers Day with my dad. It was nice getting together and having a good time. 💜
