What Are You Happy About Today?

i had no energy to post this weekend whatsoever, but i’m doing pretty good otherwise! ☺

saturday (01/29)
• cuddled with my kitten. <3
• watched the first two episodes of salem with my dad. i don’t see myself getting into it, but i’m still happy that i gave it a watch. i’m picky, but i’m trying to give new shows and movies a chance.
• went out with my mom! we went to petsmart to pick up some food for the kittens, booster juice to get smoothies, the dollar store (where i bought a bunch of stickers!), a grocery store and a liquor store!
sorry for the bad quality photos. 😅

@xara I love Warheads so I am definitely... intrigued by the sound of Warheads alcohol, omg

☾ Wrapped up my giveaway—it was my first time hosting one, and it was quite fun! ^^
☾ My copy of Pokemon Legends: Arceus came in today!! I've heard such good things about it; it's definitely next in priority on my gaming list. ;v; Also, I've never played BoTW, so this'll be my first open-world style game ahaha
☾ I got to play some more DQVII too!
 
  • I walked to the pharmacy to pick up my meds, first time leaving the house in over a week. I ran into a friend of mine on the way, was nice to see him :)
  • I had some Ben and Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream
  • I'm having a Starbucks caramel frappuccino (the ones you can buy in a jar at stores)
  • I get to order a copy of Pokemon Legends Arceus today!!! I'm so excited.
  • Woke up with my cat snuggled up under the blankets with me purring, she's the sweetest little thing ❤
 
⬥ I filed my taxes for this year. I’m so glad my W2’s came in a timely manner and I was able to get it over with. Honestly, I do remain a bit anxious until the actual return gets accepted, so it’ll be a long two days or so.
EDIT: It was accepted, lol. That was quick. 🙃
⬥ Now that the boring talk is over, I’m going to see Keagan. I brought him a little burger from Burger King. I got two rodeo burgers — they’re small.
⬥ The new episode of Catfish comes out tomorrow, and since my day off has been Thursday since I’ve been at my job, I stay up late and watch it.
⬥ I’m off work tonight as well, so that’s exciting.

That sounds good right now. I have Chunky Monkey in the freezer. I love the banana ice cream! It’s a shame it has the nuts in it, though. It’s hard to find banana ice cream without nuts.

I didn’t post here in quite a while because of losing my sense of taste and smell. And dealing with the same unpleasant taste across different foods for about a week now is both saddening and annoying. Fortunately, I’m still feeling fine aside from losing those senses. Today felt like a really good day for me compared to the past few days. Apologies in advance if it felt like I was all over the place.
  • After over a week, my dad finally came back home. Apparently, he had to isolate after testing positive for covid (that must’ve explained why I got sick nearly a couple of weeks ago and lost my sense of taste and smell a couple of days after feeling better). Speaking of which, everyone in my family including myself got tested and all results came back negative!
  • Since my dad drove back home and we all tested negative, I finally got the opportunity to drive again so me and my sister went to the grocery store. Don’t worry, I thoroughly sanitized the interior of the car everywhere before going somewhere (and masking up, obviously). Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised that I was still able to buy some rice that was on sale. Usually, the moment they go on sale, the shelves get empty within a matter of minutes. And the grocery store changes a round of items on sale every Thursday, so it’s been a few days actually.
  • Since I finally got to drive again after quite a while, me and my sister went on a stroll with clear sunny skies all day. And listening to video game music is still great no matter how many times I hear it. I will always be thankful for getting back home safely since some drivers on the road are being reckless as per usual with snowbanks still taking up space as a cherry on top.
  • While this is more of something that happened yesterday, I went on Inkscape to make more creations to put them into GT Sport as decals. After jumping through all the technical difficulties that are a pain in the butt, I finally got it to work. I’ll make a few more tweaks here and there then I’ll get back to making more stuff!
  • Got to play some more GT Sport. Staying on topic of the game series, there's only 31 days left till Gran Turismo 7 releases at the time of this post. I’m getting more excited with each passing day and apparently, there’s going to be a 30-minute Playstation State of Play tomorrow dedicated to the said game I mentioned, so I’ll be tuning in to see some more stuff about it. I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but I’m glad Gran Turismo 7 is coming for the PS4 too considering PS5s are rare like diamonds and that I only have the former.
 
today was a sad day, but i’m trying to focus on the positives. :’)

• finished watching the woman in the house across the street from the girl in the window! it was one of the most ridiculous shows i’ve ever seen, but i still thoroughly enjoyed it!
• cuddled with my kitten for most of the day. 🖤
not her looking like she’s about to punch me in the face. 😭

oh, i’m so happy to hear that your dad came back and is alright! i’m also happy that you’ve all tested negative, and i hope your sense of taste and smell comes back soon! 🙏🏻💙
 
I feel like I am actually getting somewhere with making my own video game finally. It isn't anything special or reinventing the wheel but I'm so excited and having a lot of fun. My journey started last year in February knowing absolutely nothing at all. I'm still wobbly and still look at tutorials but I feel like I have made so much progress. During my one year, I had 3 hiatus periods lasting anywhere from 2wks to 3 months each due to learning so much at once and needing to step away. My pixel art has improved since last year as well and I'm really proud of some characters I have made. And I've learned/learning some skills I was prevented from learning as a kid due to poor parenting such as imperfection is ok and how necessary it is to take tiny steps at a time even at the speed of molasses.
I'd always got yelled at for taking small steps or doing things too slow, because "you're procrastinating" and "do it NOW" so there is some distress there for me sometimes when there shouldn't be at my age 🙄 .
To a point, age is just a number and what's important is progress I suppose.
 
I’m ignoring the fact that they still have me on the schedule for this nightmare house because I just finished my last day and I’m not going back ever. I’ve worked here a year and I’ve wanted to quit from day one, but I was holding off until I got more hours with people that I truly enjoy working for 💜

  • I went grocery shopping today and got everything on my list.
  • I'm having chicken tenders w/ buffalo dipping sauce for dinner
  • I'm looking forward to going to sleep tonight because I didn't sleep nearly enough last night

Buffalo sauce is the best. Sometimes I mix it with ranch. Honey is good on chicken too.
