• 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 found some leftover wood in the house and decided it was time to make something new for the animals.
It's mainly for my rabbit (he's hiding in the cube), because he loves to be a bit above the ground.
Glad I had a old curtain to use as a ground. I also gave him the cathead shaped house, as one of my cats
keeps peeing into it, so I'm tired of washing it over and over again, now it's a new house for Link. 😁
The only "problem" now, is that my rabbit likes to be up there so much, he is not bothered to go anywhere else. 😂

EDIT: I should maybe mention what it even is that is new, lol. It's the brown "table" that has the cube on top!

I always love reading your posts about racing and cars! I’m not much of a car person myself, but reading all of your posts certainly does pique my interest.
I didn't really expect my passion for cars to pique people's interest, especially from you! There's something amazing about driving everyday road cars at a race track that probably wouldn't be possible otherwise, at least that's what I think so. I'll put it here right now that while I do know some things about cars, there's still a lot of room for me to expand my knowledge about them, whether it would be history about cars, how they work, how to setup your car at the right track (e.g. suspension, gear transmission, brake balance, etc.), and racing techniques.

Yes, his original name was "Disney", which I thought wasn't cool enough for him, haha.
He used to have a buddy that we adopted as a girl and I named her Zelda.. turned out it was a male and
I named him Mido. Sadly he passed away some time ago and Link is not accepting any new friends since then.
But he's doing great!
 
had a dream abt my friend last night and now I can't get him off my mind, love him sm 🥺
I don't think he's up yet but I sent him a discord message saying how much I appreciate him, I'm really anxious waiting for a response 😭😭

basically woke up in a good mood today for the first time in who knows how long, already took the dog for a walk at like 6:30am and I'm making more red beans and rice (yes for breakfast lmao). I have a few things I want to do and since im in such a great mood i actually have the energy to do it.
 
- my bf and I reserved our first home together a couple of weeks ago! we’re so excited ❤️
- went to a wedding on sat which was beautiful - had a bbq in our garden yesterday to continue celebrations. Good food, nice drinks, excellent company!
- my bf gave me his kindle since he doesn’t use it and I’m sooo excited! I have so many books on my wish list that I can’t wait to get started on 😊
 
I have an appointment today with my therapist, our first in person appointment in over a year :)

Also, I decided I'm ready for a part-time job so I'm going to ask my care manager to help get me into some vocational counseling. I haven't been working due to my mental illness (schizoaffective disorder bipolar type) but I feel stable enough for a part-time job finally :)
 
This morning I showed my supervisor a draft of the paper I've been working on all year. My expectation was that she would have a long list of corrections I should make, but instead she said it's valuable information and wants to publish it. This is exactly the type of motivation I needed to get the damn thing finished!

(Context: I'm a scientist.)
Finished and submitted my research paper today after eleven months spent investigating this specific pathogen. Presenting it in two days and I'm actually excited to share what I've found. 😊
 
tore apart a shelf that my sister replaced and macgyver'd an extension to my desk with it
previously i had boxes stacked on top of each other and a piece of cardboard on top to work as an extension. this is preferable.

the froggy washi tape is there to seal off the exposed wood so i dont end up hurting myself on it '-')b
 
I had today off. I got a lot done! Figured out my migraine was because of a lack of caffeine...I'm going to cut back on coffee lol.

@jadetine finished the art that I won from her raffle and it just is absolutely amazing and beautiful 🥰☺️. I originally was going to have a different character if I won but when I found out that I won, I thought about one of my late cats who I miss so much and thought having her watch the stars with Celeste would be wonderful to see since if there is a place where the deceased go after death, I imagine my kitty at peace doing something relaxing like star gazing, even though she was a very active cat before she got sick. And i couldn’t help but want to see her dressed up similar to Jiji since she was a black cat 😋. This was seriously a wonderful surprise and pick me up. ☺️
 
This is a mix from today and yesterday!

-I bought some little pillsbury crescent rolls the other day and I baked them last night! I put blueberries in them and made a little glaze, they're so good 🥺💕

-I fixed up an older skirt I made!! It's a gathered skirt so the hem wasn't nearly as daunting to go back to but oh my gosh past me. I had to unpick three rows of stitching!! Took me forever. The new hem is smaller though which I prefer and while it's not perfect it's a lot better than it was so I won't be redoing it. I also actually finished the waistband so now all my raw edges are hidden! I wore it today and my lipstick & lipgloss I bought the other day match the colour of the skirt perfectly, I'm so happy lol.

-I watched the first Fear Street movie last nigh with @Saylor!! Well, we live in different countries lol but we were watching it at the same time and texting through it which was fun. I'm not the best with horror movies so getting to talk with her through it was really nice. Plus she warned me when it was going to be gross :')
 
Today wasn't a bad day even though I'm tired and a bit sore.

- I didn't have to work today.

- The weather was nice when I took my dog out for his walk. It was warm and sunny with just enough of a breeze to feel good.

- After exactly six months, the third party payee I set up for my brother finally received his money from Social Security. We are expecting his first deposit on his reloadable debit card tomorrow and also a reimbursement will be deposited in my bank account for all the money my mom and I spent paying his bills and expenses all this time. I still have some loose ends to tie up, but the major hurdle has now been cleared. I'm hoping things will be downhill from here.

- My husband picked up some blueberries at the store today. We hardly ever have fresh fruit in the house so that's a nice treat. Too bad it's a little too late for the TBT Scavenger Hunt. LOL
 
Today I finished an embroidery project that I was working on for quite some time, so I am very glad to be finished! I was embroidering a design on to a hat that I thrifted, the hat previously had an ugly looking skull on it and I covered it with a dragonfruit. Truthfully it didn't turn out as well as I hoped but I am glad to have finished it so that I can move on to my next project which I believe will be making something for a friend of mine :)
 
Had a relaxing day.

- Had a long conversation with my dad and diversified my reading backlog with his suggestions.
- Read over my vision statement, which I ended up finishing yesterday, hehe.
- Caught up on YouTube subscriptions with my S/O.
