What Are You Happy About Today?

So I'm on the bus on my way home from work listening to music when I look out the window to see ❄SNOW❄ It began to snow out of nowhere! I mean it's real damn cold outside but I was not expecting snow to start literally ONE DAY before December 🥰 that made me really happy to see, and I hope we get another raging blizzard this year!

...I just, I really enjoy snow.
 
  • I finished my 10 page paper on cog-behavioral praxis, I feel good about it.
  • I think my medicine being increase has helped slightly? Even if it's placebo it's nice to have a little motivation
  • Almost all of my Christmas shopping is done! (Just need to figure something out for my bff in canada, shipping is insane there!)
  • I only have a few more assignments left for my undergrad
  • I'm graduating in three weeks!

It's not a whole lot, but it is relieving.
 
I didn't post here yesterday because I was having an especially bad day, but today I'm happy because:

- It was a much better day than yesterday.
- I got all of my work done without any major crisis coming up.
- The weather was a bit warmer and it should be tolerable all week.
- I have a massage therapy appointment tomorrow afternoon.
- I haven't been feeling too much pain lately.
 
Technically this was late yesterday, but I was finally able to order the otome fanbook I've been saving up for!! ^^ I'm very happy with how this collection is coming along; there's only one more on my wishlist (...that I currently know of anyway), but that one can wait for a little while, I think.
Finished my first route in Dairoku and aside from one minor little nitpick I'm very pleased; it was lovely. ;v;
I really enjoyed working on my Christmas aesthetic! I even found some new art while I was planning it out, ehehe.
 
Happy today because I’m really enjoying my Happy Home Paradise DLC for my New Horizons game. I never realized how much I missed decorating houses. Also, I now have everything that I own or would like with my cute, pink and pretty aesthetic. There’s a couple of clothes I need to swap with my favorite colors, but everything is the way I like it now. Took me three years to change everything, but now it’s definitely what I like. I’m sooo happy! 😭
 
After driving home in a snow storm last night it's looking like a nice day and way better drive home later tonight.

Also it's December 1st. I know many people/places having been getting Christmasy already but I prefer to wait until December. They even threw in a Christmas song on the radio during my drive this morning. Just one which was just the right amount. I want it to actually be Christmas before every single song I hear is seasonal you know?

Also, last Christmas was rough for me. I couldn't see my Grandparents in person due to imminent lockdown and I had left an abusive relationship earlier that year. I had also moved back in with my parents which wasn't horrible but I had definitely outgrown living there.

This Christmas I should be able to see my Grandparents and I'm in a way healthier and happier relationship. I really look forward to Christmas this year. :)
 
I received my 90 day review of work and I got a fifty cent raise. I was also complimented on my work ethic.
I’m excited about finally working with my girl on Saturday night. That day is going to be filled with excitement for me.
I really like the orange mango flavor of the ICE sparkling water. It tastes very similar to the Mountain Dew Passionfruit Frenzy that I love. It’s a nice, cheaper, and healthier alternative for sure.
Something happened today that made me feel a bit sad but thinking about my girl cheers me up.
 
  • I’m getting the Happy Home Paradise DLC today!! :D
  • I might order some pizza tonight
  • I cleaned my bathroom and kitchen
  • I’m doing my Christmas shopping today. I think I picked out some nice things for my family and friends. I hope they like their gifts :)
 
Been losing a bit of weight recently, which is good since I wanted to trim back down to normal BMI! It’s been a little hard losing weight this year compared to last year because I feel my body‘s already used to the diet and exercise, but I’ve been exercising more regularly nowadays and eating less (not to an unhealthy level, but reducing my intake helps my body get used to being full with smaller portions) so I‘m glad to see some improvement c: It helps too that I’ve already gotten used to watching Netflix while doing cardio so whenever I feel the urge to watch Netflix, I think “Omg I have to exercise if I wanna watch” LOL. I basically feel weird if I don’t do them both at the same time.

Looking to trim down to 110 pounds or less by the end of this year! :D Hopefully by the end of the semester I’ll have more time to do longer exercises.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I slept a bit better last night.
- I got everything I needed to accomplish done for work today.
- I didn't have to attend a meeting that was stressing me out because my leaders got involved.
- I have started my Christmas shopping. I ordered a couple of presents for my husband today and I'm narrowing down ideas for everyone else.
- I had an insightful massage therapy session today. This lady really does more than just massage. She tries to get to the root of the problems that are causing the pain.
- My dog snuggled with me on the couch this evening.
 
Well my rent is going up about $70 when my lease is up in March. I need to give them notice by January 19th if I plan to end the lease, and I think I’m going to since I live in a small studio.
I think I’m going to try to find a 2-4 family flat closer to the city to get more space for the price. I’m excited to possibly make a change in the next few months!
