What Are You Happy About Today?

Ooo yesterday I got to clean out my kitchen some without my spouse getting upset (they like to keep everything under the sun and they were too tired to argue or be upset about it which I feel bad about, but guys... It needed it) so now we have more room in the cabinets for stuff that were on counters or sitting in boxes with old things gone. 😃
This is relief for me.
 
- I’m glad the Dallas Mavericks beat the Indiana Pacers yesterday 132-105 and I’m looking forward to them taking on the Orlando Magic tonight.
- I’m glad I got out of work earlier today and I’m off tomorrow.
- I have to complete an assessment for the job I’m in the hiring process for. However, I’m really looking forward to hearing back about the other role that I want more tomorrow.
- I’ve had a lot of fun with Genshin Impact and Pokemon Legends: Arceus lately.
- I’ve enjoyed spending time with my favorite person lately. < 3
 
⬥ The Los Angeles Kings won their hockey game today and I received a puck from #19 during the pre-game! (Thanks Iafallo!!!)

⬥ I’m going out for lunch now and I’m excited about getting this dessert that’s really good. I honestly cannot wait to eat it.
⬥ I am off work today because of this hockey game. I had so much fun at this game. Winning definitely helped, lol.
⬥ I saw Keagan today! They were selling Christmas sock monkeys for 90% off because the holidays are over, so Keagan got another new toy. He already has so many, but he did like it!
 
  • I got some cleaning done today
  • My sister called and we talked for about an hour, was nice to hear from her
  • Steam is having a big sale on several of the games on my wishlist, so I'm going to be getting The Witcher trilogy, Skyrim: Anniversary Edition, Lego Lord of the Rings, and Red Dead Redemption 2. All of those games for a total of $75
  • I woke up to my kitty underneath the covers purring ❤
  • I feel good today :)

Today I'm happy because:

- I slept fairly well again last night and got to sleep in this morning.
- I didn't have to work today.
- My dog was acting super cute and playful again today.
- I got to do some more reading today.
- I'm planning on starting my new journal tonight.
- This week shouldn't be too bad at work because we don't have an implementation planned, so I can work on getting caught up on other things.
 
I'm happy because I opened an art shop today and while I was nervous about it at first, so far I've finished a few commissions. It's really nice! I'm learning as I go ☺💞

This weekend we had a snowstorm for a nice change of pace. Watching the snowfall is always relaxing. And on my way home from work I was greeted by a friendly dog! Good girl! 🐾💖

I began my adventure in Pokemon Legends Arceus and I have to say: playing this game is like rediscovering Pokemon all over again. I'm enjoying it a lot so far! 🐾💖
 
☾ I got back into playing Dairoku: Agents of Sakuratani! I took a little break from it to finish a few other games, but I'm happy to be getting back to it now! 😄
☾ Also started playing DQVII for the first time and I'm already really enjoying it! I think something about the style is reminding me of IX a little bit.
☾ Cozy__Games streamed today! I had fun just hanging out and doing some coloring with my glitter gel pens while I watched.
 
I had a nice day!
- I managed to get some sleep before heading to university! Slept from around 11pm-3am
- Tried the new dark cocoa + orange oat latte from Starbucks, it was delicious! I drank it while getting some work done in the library and got all my extra reading + notes done for the week
- Class went well!
- Got home, had a warming bath, and watched the newest episode of Euphoria 😌
 
• working on cleaning the kitchen atm and it's going well, just finished sweeping the floor and now I'm about to mop. dreading washing the dishes cause they're terrible but idk it really needs to be done lol.
• made a virgin bloody mary for myself and my mom and it turned out really good!
• I think the higher dosage of my medication is helping because I haven't had a depressive episode in about 4-5 days and I've been feeling pretty great today and yesterday. I feel evened out and that makes me happy. I'm hoping this keeps up and I can finally tackle this depression :)
 
-Been kind of inactive here due to a lot that was going on. Kind of happy that it's all died out and I can have some breathing room.

-I finished writing two chapters to a story I've been working on. I've went back and forth on them and there's been a lot of fine-tuning, but for the most part they are fleshed out. I may proofread them just to be sure.

-I bought some really cheap and strong smelling coffee grinds and it killed the stinky musty smell in my antique chest. You all might be thinking big deal lol, but this chest smelled awful. Like something died and I've tried just about every odor removal idea I could think of. I can deal with coffee smell. I can't wait to restore this to its former glory.
 
I got a lot of cleaning done today including some stuff I've been putting off for... let's just say too long. One of these tasks being thoroughly cleaning out my keyboard, taking off all the keycaps to wash them and everything. Also made some dinner in the slow cooker that will leave us with enough leftovers to cover meals for tomorrow, I always appreciate having leftovers.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- My work day wasn't too bad. I'm so glad we don't have an implementation scheduled for this week as it's giving me a breather.
- We may not have an implementation next week either, so that's more time to get other things done.
- I was able to reschedule my dentist's appointment because it conflicted with a training class I wanted to take for work.
- I decided to take Friday off because I deserve a long weekend.
- My mom got some good news from her oncologist today. She has leukemia but the past several months her white blood cell count has been so good that he's releasing her. She can just visit her regular doctor to check her blood cell counts in the future and make sure that they are staying in a normal range.
 
the high tomorrow will be 43, the first time it's been above freezing in probably 2 weeks. so ready for all this snow to melt lol!!

also been jamming to music on my ipod all evening (one i've had since '05 and still works like a charm), a bunch of stuff I used to listen to in HS and it really takes me back! I still think it's funny that like 85% of the stuff I listened to in high school was 80s music lol.

also also forgot to mention but I started up Super Mario Sunshine for the first time last night and I'm such a noob xDD
but it's been a lot of fun and I can't wait to experience the full game!!
 
⬥ My hat arrived in the mail while I was at work today. I didn’t think I could find a new NHL hat for $6, but I knew I couldn’t pass this up. I like the quality of the Predator head. I also root for the Preds on the side, lol. I have a soft spot for them. Anyway, I feel inclined to post a picture of the hat:

⬥ I went to the gas station adjacent to my workplace, and they had a grape version of the sour punch straws. I picked some up. I’ll have to get more for work, because they were good, and better than the strawberry counterpart.

⬥ I am off work tomorrow, so I’m playing my video game for a bit tonight while I relax and drink my favorite water — Fiji water.
