What Are You Happy About Today?

[Xara]

posting earlier than i normally do since i was too tired to post yesterday, but the past day has been decent!

yesterday (01/20)
• watched a tiktok that made me laugh.
• tidied up my room a bit.
• cuddled with alize (my black & white kitten), and also took a few funny photos of her. <3

Spoiler: 🤣🖤

she’s the second cat i’ve had that has enjoyed lying in my bathroom sink.

Spoiler: the first 🖤

• continued watching sleepy hollow.
• the penguin ring that my mom ordered for me earlier this month arrived in the mail!

Spoiler: 🐧💍

sorry for the bad photo.

today (01/21)
• cuddled with alize. <3
• continued watching sleepy hollow — i’m almost done with s3! just have one episode left to go.
• obtained the mint collectible!!! tysm again, @Sophie23!
• got 2x nook points.

Not happy about much today. My beautiful old snuggly dog died last weekend and I'm sad without her. However, I'm grateful to still have my goofy cat. My cat is about 9 years old, so I hope to have more years with her.

i’m so sorry to hear this. i know how awful losing a pet is (lost my kitty in nov), but i promise that things will get better. you’ll never stop missing them, of course, but doing so won’t always hurt so bad. i’m happy that you and your cat have one another, and i hope she helps you cope during this. my pms are always open if you ever need someone to talk to as well.

GUYS GUYS GUYS STERLING IS HERE AND HE'S SO PRECIOUS AHHHHHH

I knew this plush would be big but 20" long in person is still a very surprising size for a plushie! his fur is ever so slightly coarse in texture but it's also soft so it's like realistic fur. and just look at the detailing on it! I cannot get over this guy, I've been carrying him around for like the last 2 hours an I can't put him down for more than a few minutes lol. he's gonna be my new snuggle buddy!

HOMIE HE’S SO CUTE????

Today I'm happy because:

- I had an easy day of work. I got to watch some training videos that were actually helpful and took some time to rest this morning.
- The birthday present I ordered for my nephew arrived a day early. It looks pretty cool. I hope he likes it.
- I'm still feeling pretty good both mentally and physically today.
- My dog cuddled with me on the couch this evening.
- It's Friday and I'm looking forward to enjoying the weekend off.

i bought some new clothes for myself tonight

 

[.: Meri :.]

☾ Received some random bells from @Mr_Keroppi! Thank you! ^^
☾ I got the Japanese version of DQXI S with the voice drama DLC! I was hoping the DLC would get a Western release eventually, but since I still hadn't heard anything about it, I decided to go ahead and get the JP version. I'm really looking forward to listening to all of them!
☾ Also played some more PMD: Blue Rescue Team and got to Platinum rank, and was finally able to recruit Smeargle!
☾ It started snowing late this afternoon! It's accumulated a good amount already, and it's actually still snowing out there right now. I bet it's going to look super pretty tomorrow morning. ;v;

 

[Alienfish]

Grabbed a ticket for a movie I wanna go see at the cinema tomorrow! Hopefully my jab proof stuff works fine too, had some trouble download that thing, but should work

Aww you noticed! That brings me so much joy We all could use a little positivity so every friday I want to randomly choose some active members for my new happy bonus called... "FRI-YAY BONUS." It may be a small amount but hopefully it can count just a little! If I can brighten up peoples days even just a little that would make me the happiest frog in the world

We took a nice walk in a forest near our home. We had no idea there was this neat spot just 5 minutes from home. I will be taking more walks with my little one there now! Also made possibly the best deal so far. 20 Tamagotchis for only 200€. Sounds expensive? Nah, that's 10€ each and most of them are worth over 50€

 

[Soigne]

had a busy (but decent) day at work today, and now i’m going to watch a movie i’ve wanted to see for a few months. trying to fill my days with a little something to look forward to every day.

 

[Autumn247]

• I walked to the store and bought some food, I was running low so I'm glad I was able to get some
• Practiced ukulele for awhile tonight
• Took a long refreshing nap with my kitty
• I got a wonderful Zelda themed signature made by @Mr_Keroppi <3
• I had a few people from this forum over to my island last night for them to sell their turnips at my Nooks Cranny, and got some bells in return
• I'm finally starting to feel motivated just in general in my life to do things like shower, shop, clean, practice ukulele etc, I went through a rut where I was lacking any motivation at all for several months

 

[LadyDestani]

Today I'm happy because:

- I slept well last night and got to sleep in this morning.
- I didn't have to work today.
- I had a nice day at home with my husband and my dog.
- My dog cuddled with me on the couch for a while.
- We had tacos for dinner, which I was craving.
- I'm really enjoying my book and excited to read more tonight.

 

[Croconaw]

It was an uneventful day today. I like to try look beyond that, though, and try posting here every day. I think it’s good to dig for the positivity in our day.

⬥ I have received two of the three W2’s that I need for my tax return. Hopefully I can get the other one soon so I can see how much my refund is.
⬥ I received some money in the mail as a late birthday present. It was a nice surprise. I’ll have to deposit in my bank account.
⬥ I had a lot of free time to browse the forums and play video games.
⬥ I had an easy day at work tonight. I got out of work early, too.

 

[.: Meri :.]

☾ I listened to the first of the DQXI voice dramas and I'm happy I was able to follow along with it pretty well! There's definitely a few gaps in my understanding and I'm a little fuzzy on the specifics, but I'm glad that I can understand the general story. It was... definitely on the bittersweet side though.
☾ As I hoped, the snow this morning was super pretty!! My mom and I went out in it and made a couple snowmen—we invited my dad to join but he was all "nah, too cold, I'm staying in with the cats".
☾ Finished reading a book today! Most of the reading I did last year was in otome, and I'm hoping to make some good progress on my book backlog this year. Finishing Dairoku is still high on my priority list though.
☾ I got myself the Rune Factory 4 3DS theme! It's so much nicer than the default theme I've had all these years; I really love it. ;v;
☾ Played some more PMD: Blue Rescue Team! I got a flag design I like and hopefully levelled up enough to progress the post-game story a bit more next time.
☾ Also finally got my K.K. Slider Diehard badge in New Leaf!

my day was pretty uneventful, but it was a good day nonetheless.

• watched a few tiktoks that made me laugh.
• cuddled with alize (my black & white kitten).
• continued watching sleepy hollow.
• my mom ordered kfc for a late dinner, which led to the birth of one of my favourite photos ever.

Spoiler: i have no explanation lmao

for some reason, my mom decided to put one of the empty kfc bags on her head to see how alize would react.

• tidied up my room a bit.
• ended the day by treating myself to a glass of mint chocolate baileys and reading a new fanfic (that i really enjoyed!).

been almost a month since i posted here, whoops. most of my days are too uneventful/lame to document, but today was pretty decent, so-

✿ my nan came down, just like she does every saturday, but it's always nice to see her. she printed out another copy of an eevelution poster for me, so i'm going to stick the spare on my wall under my pin boards, and also bought me some crisps!
✿ my aliexpress items arrived. honestly, i wasn't expecting them until mid-february at the earliest, since they usually ship rather slow in my experience. it was hit or miss, as i hear aliexpress usually is, but i'm not super disappointed in what i received, and i'll hopefully get a refund for the figures that had absolutely decimated packaging lol.
✿ one of the plushies from the above order had the right tag, so i removed it to stick on my wall next to the vaporeon and flareon ones, and now i have the whole trio next to each other! i really love my wall <3
✿ made some picrews. there was a period where i made them nonstop, but there aren't a lot of new creators that appeal to me these days, so it was nice to make some again!
✿ ordered a cute vaporeon pin for my board!
✿ my cat seems to be doing better now that she's been to the vets and i've turned my mirror around. (for context: we cleared the vanity, and she started sitting up there and staring into the mirror. then she stopped coming into our room and began overwashing and accidentally cutting herself with her too-long back claws.) she's coming into our room again on her own and getting up on my bed to cuddle and sleep with me now <3
✿ finally got around to commissioning some more beautiful art from @starlipie !! they showed me a rough sketch and just that alone is so cute that i keep going back to stare at it non-stop lol. you should totally consider them for commissions if you're able to !! they're super sweet and their art is gorgeous

Despite anything that’s been bothering me recently, I still feel as though this year is going to be a good one for me. I had a great past week with a lot of off time, which was good for my mental health. I can also tell that things are starting to change in my life slowly in a good way. Not to mention I still have hope in the job hunt because the company I applied to is going to be getting back to me about the original position I applied for soon. And, well, even if that doesn’t work out, I have an incredibly long safety net of people to fall back on.

 

[Disneyfangirl23]

I made myself a flag for my new Island yesterday
And today I got able sisters & the Resident Services building on acnh so I used my new flag

and I also sold two of my collectibles for tbt today

 

[maria110]

I adopted an older puppy at my local shelter. He is so cute. I still miss my old doggie who passed away and probably always will (she was my first dog) but this little fellow is keeping me busy.

 

[allainah]

I went bowling with my family and I'm feeling mentally good, which is rare for me

 

[Firesquids]

My fiance and I got Captain Toad Treasure Tracker and we're having a lot of fun with it this weekend.

 

[Alienfish]

- Went to the cinema today! Haven't been since sometimes last fall so felt good to be back. And they handled distancing, jab proofs, hygiene routines well so I'm glad they can be open!
- Finished off an annoying goal "questchain" in PoGo. I have another ones to complete but hopefully I'll walk around a lot and also they release more Exeggcutes in the wild.
- Happy to see my new OG Switch is working fine and I learned how to turn those off properly
