What Are You Happy About Today?

I actually managed to sleep last night! Slept from 12am-6am, which is so rare for me on nights before uni.

I'm happy I got all of my university work done for the week at the library today, and also took notes on a primary source at the special exhibit they were holding at the library's museum. Now I'm glad I can relax for the rest of the week 😊

I've been enjoying replaying Pokemon Platinum, which I haven't played since 2013. I decided to restart it because I chose not to get Pokemon BDSP since they just didn't seem worth the money, and I kinda dislike the art style. But revisiting Sinnoh seemed like a nice idea so,, I'm still planning on getting Legends: Arceus!

Also made plans to go to the cinema on Friday to watch The Eternals with my friend. 😚
 
My tiny dog got his teeth cleaned today and it went well. They didn't overdose him, a problem I have ran into in the past with my small dogs. They only pulled two loose teeth and now he is snuggling beside me in my fleece house coat thingy I wear when it's cold. He teeth is so white now I wonder what past vets actually did when he went under. I always got him back with yellow and told it was just stains. :/
Well he's all good now :) he's been wobbling around the house when I'm not sitting with him.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- It was a somewhat better day than yesterday.
- The weather was sunny and reasonably warm.
- An issue that was stressing me out at work got a little better because my manager stepped in to help. I don't have to deal with it alone now.
- I had a good massage therapy session. It was actually kind of cathartic and I felt better afterwards.
- I got my nephew's birthday present shipped out.
 
The birthday present for myself that I pre-ordered a few months back arrived today!! I'm so incredibly happy with all of it, and I'm very glad it got here safely before my birthday. ;v; It's totally self-indulgent, so feel free to skip ahaha: it's wedding-themed acrylic stand sets of three of my favorite characters, that each came with a marriage certificate with a blank space for your name asjkdhfsgkl
Aksys has started posting teasers for Dairoku and I am so excited!!
 
I’m happy that I’m off work today. My work day went by relatively quickly last night as it was only a five hour shift.
I received a payment from eBay, and I’m close to making another sale. I should also be getting paid from my job within a day or two, so that’s nice.
My hoodie is currently out for delivery. I’m super excited because this is one I’ve been wanting for a long time.
I had time and motivation to clean up my area a bit. It was long overdue so I’m happy that I felt motivated enough to do it.
It was just a slightly better day than yesterday. I’ve also been talking to my best friend again. It’s been many years of friendship but there was a point of no contact for about a year, so it’s nice to talk again. It’s like nothing changed basically.
 
My new kitty is here!!! She just got here today and has been doing really well. She's currently curled up on/by my feet taking a nap ❤️

I finally got the bipolar diagnosis today that I've been fighting for since my first episode three-ish years ago. And tomorrow I start anti-psychotics.
I am so over this mental illness bs and I am so ready to get my life back on track, I can't wait to feel in control of myself again.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I slept pretty deeply the past two nights, although I really didn't want to get up this morning for work.
- I was feeling a bit rough earlier, like I had a cold, but I had some green tea and now I'm feeling better.
- The weather was warm again today. If only it hadn't been so windy. I also missed the rain every time I had to go out.
- I completed all the work I set out to do today.
- Tomorrow is Friday and then it's the weekend.
 
Here are five things that make me happy:

1. Spending time with my kids –They re my most proud and looking at their milestone make me feel complete although sometimes I down to sadness and blame myself perhaps I not the best parent they could have but when my son hug me, it reverse everything.

2. Singing loudly – I only do this in the car because I know I haven’t got the best voice but that doesn’t matter. When I am driving home after a hard day at work I put on one of my favourite CDs and then sing loudly all the way home. The traffic from work to home is chaos I could easily stuck 1 hour and worse during raining day which is this 2 months.

3. Writing – it gives me a chance to feel creative. I get to express what I feel and what i think and that makes me happy. And especially here in TBT where I can freely express my thought and the best? My favourite AC game. Say no more, let's play!

4. Enjoying a relaxing cup of tea – or coffee but the key to this is to share it with friends or family. It is the chance to relax and step off the treadmill of modern life. I relax and unwind.

Tomorrow will not be all smiles and happiness for me, I know that. Life is short and we should appreciate every day every moment til the last.

The series 5 Amiibo cards I brought from Amazon came in finally today, so I now own every card from that series. I'm still waiting on the ones I brought from another seller, so we'll see what happens with that. I'm just happy I got my hands on a Shino card at the very least. I might give away the doubles soon if I'm feeling like doing that.
 
Found some new artwork of one of my favorite characters!
It was a really nice clear, windy day, so my family and I spent a little time outside. I got to play with the neighbor's cat for a little while (she actually stood up and wrapped her paws around my arm once, it was super cute ;v; ), and the birds outside were clearly enjoying the breeze as well. ^^
I also got to play some ACNH! I worked on decorating my bathroom a little bit more, collected a few more of the maple leaf DIYs, and made a good chunk of progress on clearing out the flowers that have taken over my island! I've been steadily chipping away at some missing fish in my critterpedia, too. c:
 
Today for the first day in a long time was amazing
  • I went to pick up a game and didn’t pre order it as I’ve not been well. But because I was one of the first people to come into the store as it opened I got the pre order gift cause they had 3 left 😊
  • I won tickets to a show that I really wanted to see 🥰
  • Saw a shooting star it was so beautiful✨
 
  • I slept good. Woke up with my kitty purring next to me 🙂
  • I have my self-care art group today.
  • My new kitty seems to be adjusting well so far
  • We had a holiday dinner at my apartment complex yesterday. They just gave us the food in to-go containers since we still can't us the community room for stuff like that due to covid. The food was really good I got chicken parmesan w veggies, roasted potatoes, penne pasta, a salad, a roll, a piece of pumpkin pie, and a can of coca cola. And we each got a gift bag with stuff from a local book store. I got beauty/bath stuff, books, a canister of mocha drink mix, a mug that says "Living My Best Life" on it. I love everything. ❤️
