• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

What Are You Happy About Today?

I cleaned the bathroom! I didn't have the strenght and motivation since literally 1 months, so the house is pretty dirty and I'm not proud of it.
However, today I finally decided to change that and even if I can only do one room per day, that's better than nothing. The 35°c outside don't help to stay motivated, but I can do it!!
 
I finally set up my stream!!! i decided to add my camera even though i'm shy so i'll probably try it out today and stream some genshin impact tomorrow because inazuma is coming. i'm so happy and proud i did all of this from scratch lol i love it!!!! sadly i'll be streaming in french for now, just because some of my friends will be here kgfjdls
(if you wanna come say hi or follow don't hesitate, tysm ! www.twitch.tv/8oki)
 
For context:
both of my parents are in the hospital with covid and things have been pretty bad. We were told a few days ago that dad might not make it much longer.

the good news:
Dad made a dramatic turn for the better overnight! They were able to unparalyze him and are working on weaning him off of oxygen!
Mom is doing well, too! So things might actually be looking up!
 
I made dalgona coffee today (whipped coffee) (pictured below) I'm so happy because I saw this online and wanted to try it for so long and I finally bought a hand mixer, so it was easy to make. (1 tBSP instant coffee, 1 TBSP cold water, 1 TBSP granulated sugar) whip until it turns into this foam like consistency that's a little thicker than foam though, it's really good. I served it over vanilla almond milk

And I took a wonderful nap on my couch this morning :)

Pretty crappy day but some good things I guess.

I made it to a stream of a VA I like (sadly had trouble enjoying it because of mood and some comments that bothered me). Now they’re raiding another VA I like. 🙂

Found out what may have been causing my jaw and ear pain and have an appointment on Thursday (not looking forward to it).

Ahh! A voice actor asked me some questions and replied to my responses! 😱😊

I’m enjoying this second skyward sword stream :).I’m still a bit crabby but feeling a bit better now. Forgot to mention earlier that I got some items I needed for a surprise; i was offered it for free which was extremely generous of them (gave them a tip since they normally cost a bit for each one). 😊
 
  • I did some work in my backyard while listening to some video game music in the background.
  • Me and my mother cooked chicken and rice with mushrooms and tasted delicious! We even used the chives in the backyard to add to the dish. Don't worry, they were in a homemade plant pot so I didn't just randomly pull one off from the ground. We followed this recipe here if you're curious.
  • Played some ACNH today. Stitches gave me a beautiful statue and expected a fake, but it was actually a real one! Though, his parents would most likely not approve of that lol. Moreover, I saw him sing in the town plaza for the first time ever alongside Carrie!
  • Reading the rest of the volumes of the Zelda Twilight Princess Manga. I'm on the fourth volume so far.
  • Apparently, the first-ever animation I've done turned a year old a couple of days ago. Looking at it brought back memories of how it took me a month just to get a few seconds worth of run time. I'm still pretty happy with the outcome. :blush:
 
haven’t posted in here in a few days, so this is a bit of a catch-up post. 😅

• all of my submissions for the final scavenger hunt were accepted, which means i was able to receive both a cocotryoshka and quirky doll collectible!!! 🥳

• today is the first day where i really felt like myself after getting sick last week, so i’m definitely happy about that!
 
got to spend all day at kings island today and while I didn't get on any big rollercoasters (cause uncontrollable anxiety is fun) I rode some decently (highly for me) thrilling rides and I had a ton of fun!! I did get on one small rollercoaster, big mistake lmao but at least I can tell ppl now I've been on one 🤷🤷

I'm def worn out and ready for bed after today, hope I get some good rest 💤

This also made my day!
Lmk if you need anything changed (shell color, crop image to a circle, move hope up high or down low, etc).
@S.J. even took a few minutes to express how much they liked the Luma. People are so nice! 😭
Today, I am finally out of tbt debt! Yuhhhhh!
 
I completed all of my necessary tasks at work today and dealt with an issue that I knew was coming this morning (found out about it right at 5pm yesterday, too late to do anything then). Tomorrow is looking like it might be a quieter day. At least, I don't have too many meetings, so I'm hoping to get caught up on some other work.

My dog cuddled up to me on the couch today while my husband and I were watching TV. 💞
 
I was about to post this in the "What's Bothering You?" thread LOL but nah, I'll make it into a positive.

I mean, I did a helluva lot of **** today. First of all taking care of granny -- making sure she does her daily exercises, meds, bathroom, etc. Then reading some newspaper articles (though it may not seem like a lot, I've been meaning to read them haha). Then driving to the two clinics to make sure I know my way there (though I'll have to recheck this one place again, where the **** is the entrance? It's a whole goddamn building with different companies). Then getting some meds for granny. Also did some calls.

... I dunno, it may not seem much, but I'm ****ing pooped lol.
