What Are You Happy About Today?

I just pre ordered the new mario party and my mom let me order a nintendo eshop card that will be enough to get me dlc for animal crossing.

My mom is already thinking of looking at kittens; she realized how much I need cats in my life and even though she was originally going to wait until my last cat passed away she though it might do both me and the cat some good to have two babies. And she found two dead mice recently in traps downstairs; my cat doesn’t hunt anymore (but we had kept the basement door shut); with kittens, my mom said she’ll leave the door open and move the litter downstairs. She said we could wait since I am hesitant because I don’t want to disrespect my cat that we lost today :(. I’m still in shock and upset about what happened 💔. I am touched that my mom gave it that much thought and realizes how much my cats help me cope. I love my mom so much. I really appreciate she is trying to help me and understand me better.
 
I've been trying really hard for months to get a job because my husband can't work anymore due to permanent lung damage from Covid. Since I have been a SAHM for the last 15 years, I have a huge employment gap on my resume that gets me a lot of rejection emails. It's been rough and very demoralizing. Today I got 2 interview offers! :D Wish me luck!
 
⬥ I saw Keagan this morning. I shared McNuggets with him and took him for a walk. He looked so happy to see me.
⬥ I’m off work tomorrow. I plan on staying up a bit later tonight. I think I’ll just listen to some music and browse the forums.
⬥ I’m excited that my favorite team has a hockey game against the team I have a soft spot for tomorrow. I cheer for them when they aren’t playing the Kings, of course.

If people were aware of my actual job history and the employment gaps, I would guarantee nobody would hire me. Nobody really checks for dates, and it’s basically “did this person work here and how were they?” They don’t normally confirm actual dates, and nobody has time to go into the database and check. I would just stretch out jobs so there are no gaps. There were some jobs I don’t even mention and just stretch out the longest jobs I’ve had. Nobody is completely honest on their resume, let’s be real.
 
❦ Today I went to work. I was not originally feeling like going in at all. I had a very rough night previously and was suffering from menstrual symptoms to the point I didn't even want to get out of bed. But! I did it anyways and had a really good time. I got to see my FAVORITE manager and my favorite office-clerks! <: It always makes me super happy seeing people I enjoy being around.

❦ Afterwards, I went home; played Animal Crossing: New Horizons and a bit of Cookie Run: Kingdom. It's always nice to kickback and relax after work! I listened to lots of good music and jammed out to my hearts content! Speaking of jam...

❦ I had some toast for breakfast with peach jam from our local fruit-farm! It was SO good c:

❦ Got to hang out with a friend not too long ago. Her and I went to Sheetz (a gas station + convenience store mix, I guess), and we pigged out on snacks xD Very much needed! I got some spicy honey mustard Combos (pretzel snack) and they're very yummy! I also snagged a Kinder Bueno : D

edit:

❦ I'm also off work for the next two days! HOORAY! :3​
 
i can’t believe i’m actually awake to post for once LOL, but i had a pretty good day! 😊

❁ did 4 animal crossing trades. @/Tiffany also complimented my island while they were here, which made me smile! my island is barely like,, 10% completed right now, so receiving compliments on it is always a very pleasant surprise!
❁ created my first piece of acnh update art! i was initially planning on drawing shino first since she’s the loml, but i decided to draw petunia/azalea the rhino instead! i’m quite proud of how it turned out tbh. :’)
❁ tidied up my room a bit.
❁ i’ve been wanting a new ipad for a while now as my current one is very old and cracked, and today i finally decided to splurge and order myself a new one! it should be here in about 4-5 weeks, and i’m very excited. 😊
❁ another day has passed without my kitty having any coughing fits! i’m not sure if this’ll keep up, but i really hope it does. <3
 
slowly turning my body's clock around and ate a very hearty meal tonight. i'll be grabbing myself some coffee soon and maybe watch a movie, or just play a lot of animal crossing.

i'm also super excited about halloween: me and mom got tickets to a drag queen luncheon near our town's beach around that time! i never been to anything like this before, so i'm trying my best to contain my expectations and wonderments about what'll be like ...
 
I forgot to post this yesterday, but I had gotten two sets of Amiibo cards and one of my art books a day or so early, so that was neat.

I decided to reset my island again so that I can have the main building far away so I can decorate my entrance since my last island had both so close. Hopefully I’ll get the island I want sometime today, so wish me luck.
 
IT'S HERE BOYS LET'S GOOOOOO

  • really wasn’t in the mood for uni today but I actually really enjoyed my lectures - I find my course really interesting which definitely helps when it comes to studying!
  • Had some delish spaghetti meatballs for tea made by my bf’s mum
  • Played some Genshin and cookie run
  • Watching Re: Zero and I’m really enjoying it, I’ve watched almost an entire season in 2 days lmao
  • I’m only at work for a short shift tomorrow! Going to try and do some life admin stuff and catch up on work.
 
I'm still really stressed about my failing grades and will most likely have to drop out of school this semester because I'll lose my scholarship, but I got a betta fish today. He's red, and since my tank has a Japanese theme, I decided to name him Kabu, after the Fire-Type Gym Leader from Pokémon Sword and Shield.
 
I’ve had another great day off. I played Pokemon all day pretty much, a bit of Genshin Impact, and helped set up a treadmill. I also finally turned on the MLB playoffs after not having seen any of it so far, and as soon as I turned it on the Red Sox hit a 2 run home run, which I was really happy about (if it’s not already obvious, I don’t like the Astros, lol). :)
