• 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’m planning on buying the happy home paradise DLC when I next have the money to do so which should be soon :)
  • I’m really enjoying the ACNH 2.0 update! I unlocked all the shops on Harv’s Island and also I can get takeout coffee from Brewster now! So I can walk around the island with my cup of coffee. So happy, wasn’t sure if they’d bring that back or not but the option opened up a few days after opening the roost and getting coffee there several times
  • Pokémon BD/SP come out on the 19th. I am so freakin excited! I played them when I was a kid on the Nintendo DS and am so excited for the remakes, they look really good in my opinion. Lots of nostalgia
  • Did some laundry today
  • Having a bagel w/ cream cheese for lunch
  • The weather is nice and cool
  • The cat bed I ordered is being delivered today. It will be a bit before I can get the kitten because of course they have to stay with their mom for awhile after they’re born. But I am prepared for when I do get them. I have everything except for a litter box. Which I can pick up at Walmart next time I go there :)
  • My yoga journal magazine came today

I'm really enjoying ACNH lately. It's been making my days a little brighter. I have so many plans for my island!

Also, tomorrow will be my first time hanging out with friends since the pandemic started. Since we're all vaccinated, and there's only 4 of us, I think it'll be okay.
 
I had a delicious cheese pizza and a cold can of Dr. Pepper. It was expensive because it was train food, but it was great.
This nice Amish family is seated directly behind me and their conversations with each other are so wholesome. They pulled out Swiss Rolls (the snack cakes) and offered me one.
It’s honestly so comforting to sleep on the train, so much more than the bus anyway.
My manager texted me and put me on the schedule for four straight days when I return. I really want to work, so this is good in my eyes.
 
The past few days have been rough for me and I haven't been happy about much, but today I'm happy because:

- I've been feeling more alert in the mornings thanks to daylight savings time ending.
- I cleared out over 100 emails from my inbox at work and got my yearly review submitted.
- Now that I'm catching up on my work after my week off, I'm feeling less stressed.
- Along with the reduced stress, my back pain that had flared up yesterday is fading again today.
- My dog was acting very cute and playful this evening.
 
when I deleted my old island yesterday I unfortunately had to leave Audie and Pippy behind, but today I found someone who was giving away Audie for free and I found Pippy after using only 9 NMTs. both my gals have returned home 😭😭

also got Jeremiah and Cephalobot, former was a very pleasant surprise cause he's one of my favorites but I'm a little iffy on the latter since I dont like robot villagers. he's kinda growing on me tho lol.
 
Our heating system was fixed today!! It's so nice having that out of the way, and I'm happy to no longer be dependent on the space heater and my cozy flannels ahaha. We're also fairly certain that all the spiders that came in with the ladder have been returned to the outside, which is a huge relief, honestly.
With all that out of the way, I finally was able to get my room back in order! I honestly feel so much better with everything back in its place. ;v;
 
Feel like replying to this again!! I feel like there's been a lot of small things to be happy and grateful for lately. ^___^
  • I have a family who loves me!
  • I found a collectible card I've been looking for for awhile (and I found TWO!!)
  • My cat (who was abused prior to us having him) finally slept on my leg for the first time!
  • My annoying pimple is finally gone LOL
I hope everyone finds something to be happy about today! ♡ ♡ ♡
 
a bit of a late night post, but my day was pretty decent for the most part! ☺️

took care of some things that needed to be done (tidied up my room, did some self-care, etc).
the remainder of the series 5 animal crossing amiibo card packs i bought from best buy, as well as the ones i bought from amazon, all arrived today!! i didn’t get everyone i wanted, but i’m still very grateful for everyone that i did get! ^_^

i may or may not have bought 2 more packs of amiibo cards off of amazon. 🤫
i’m still very much so enjoying the acnh update and dlc!! today i learnt 4 new cooking recipes, got the gyroid i wanted (a squeakoid, which for some reason reminds me of an axolotl lol), added a bunch of new stuff to my catalog, bought a genuine valiant statue from redd, invited frett to move in and obtained carrots and sugarcane!! i also learnt that diys can now be put into storage, which !!!!! automatically made this the best day of my life lmao.
got 2x nook points.
posted 2 new acnh island journal entries.
discovered a new favourite edit of one of my favourite fictional characters.
something very exciting is happening on thursday!!! i’m not gonna disclose what, just in case something goes wrong at the last minute, but i’m very excited (and nervous)!
 
Some clothes I pre-ordered before shipped :)! Soo excited to get them here cause I bet they gonna look bomb ass good!

And stocked up on my vitamins, the usual vegan ones I take were out of stock so went with some "woman" ones, they cover the same stuff and more so idm I guess.
 
Today I'm happy that the results from my bloodwork were normal. No cholesterol or sugar issues even though I eat like trash when I can be bothered to eat. And my hormone levels are fine, and my vitamin B12 level was also normal for once. The only thing that was abnormal was my low vitamin D level. I'm working on that. :) It's just nice to see some form of measurable health indicators that are normal because I live with pain and mental health stuff so I always feel chronically unwell. At least some things are demonstrably okay, you know?
 
My guinea pig had surgery on Monday. It was deemed as high risk but was necessary as she was visibly uncomfortable/in pain and things would have only progressed for the worst otherwise.

Thankfully the surgery went really well. It took her a bit to come around and want to eat food but she eventually did. Yesterday she was nearly back to herself and today I'm back at work (I took Monday and Tuesday off to keep an eye on her).

I'm just super grateful that it has all gone so well.
 
I have the rest of the day off to do whatever I want, and the Dallas Mavericks are playing the Chicago Bulls tonight. Should be a great game as both teams sport the same win-loss record so far.
YES!! now the question is, should I wear my Dončić jersey, because Mavs or my Michael Jordan jersey, because I have one and it's awesome. 🤔 I'll probably go with Mavs, because...Mavs.
 
Today I had trouble sleeping because I was anxious about going out today for my booster shot. My mom woke me up earlier with three amiibo card packs from target; she said she could tell I was a bit down this morning and thought it would cheer me up. i’m so incredibly grateful; she really didn’t need to do that (or she could have saved them for christmas). I definitely should give my mom more credit on picking up on my moods since I didn’t think she could tell when I’m down or moody a lot of times. It was definitely a nice surprise ☺️.

I just got my booster shot and am home. I can now play some more ac.

My cat and kittens are getting along now; no one hisses, but my little one still has
diarrhea
and the vet told us to separate them for a few days :(. I’m sad about needing to separate them again when things were going good but better to be safe than let my 21 year old cat catch something from them if they have something that is contagious.
 
The Los Angeles Kings have won six games in a row and I’m really hoping this streak continues. I’ve learned, however, to not get my expectations to high with this team.
I should be able to get some McDonald’s in the next hour or so. I’m still contemplating on what to get, but I do know that an Orange Lavaburst Hi-C is on that list.
I slept kind of well on the train yesterday. I couldn’t stretch out completely in the seats, but the amount of space you get is pretty amazing compared to a Coach bus.
There’s a little convenience store in the Chicago Union Station and I’m going to check it out. I’d think they have a more diverse selection of drinks than the train itself.
