• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

What Are You Happy About Today?

That I have a warm place to be. It is cold out there, burrr.
Also I am happy I have some salty things in the house, because I am craving salt today.
I slept good last night. Yesterday was a long day, so I am glad I got some good sleep.
I look forward to hopping onto animal crossing later today, probably this evening.
 
I woke-up a couple of hours before the alarm and managed to get some unexpected playtime in on Pokémon Scarlet - and I caught a shiny Azurill!

Congrats! I caught a shiny Azurill back in Pokemon X/Y. It was the first shiny I've ever encountered at full odds in a Pokemon game. It's now a level 100 Azumarill named Leone in one of my games. Take good care of Azurill! :giggle:

--

- I woke up after getting plenty of sleep and feel much better.

- Been doing some black crystal Tera raids and making bank off of them in the Pokemon Scarlet post-game. Also witnessed some cute cutscenes between the MC and the other three main rivals.

- Absolutely killing it at work today and making people laugh.

- My partner has been really sweet to me and I enjoy their company.

- Tonight the Dallas STARS host the NHL champion Colorado Avalanche... in Dallas! They're currently right under us for the division lead, so it's important that we win this game. Bring it on! 😤
 
  • The other day I was having a bad mental health day, and I randomly got a note under my door from my neighbor across the hall It said she was so happy to see me at the community meal and hopes we can talk more sometime and hopes I have a great weekend. It really made my day and made me feel like someone cares. I rang her doorbell and told her how much I appreciated it and how it helped me because I was having a bad day
  • Today I got my turkey and a bunch of other food
  • Been enjoying watching more of the Digimon anime
  • I'm happy I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow
 
was almost too tired to write this haha, but i had a pretty nice day! i hope you all did as well!

𓆩♡𓆪 went to school, even though i didn’t really want to. i also began working on and completed an assignment for math, which i’m proud of myself for doing! it wasn’t as long or as confusing as i thought it would be, either. another assignment is being introduced tomorrow, plus i have a quiz on thursday, but i’m happy to have no work to worry about tonight. ☺️
𓆩♡𓆪 @Mr_Keroppi surprised me by generously sending me some tbt! thank you again! 💚
𓆩♡𓆪 got some new pics of bonk! 🖤 i also may or may not have inquired about a cat up for adoption at my local animal shelter. 👀 i’d love for bonk to have a playmate (or at least another cat she can coexist peacefully with), i’ve just been waiting for the right match. not sure if who i inquired about will be it, but he’s certainly cute!

𓆩♡𓆪 went out with my mom this afternoon! we went for a spontaneous small drive, stopped by a store (where she bought herself a new tv — she’s been saving up for it for a while! i might also be getting her old tv 🤩), and of course got ourselves a treat at dairy queen! we also saw quite a few houses and businesses decorated for christmas, which was lovely! i love this time of year for all the decorations alone. <33

Today I'm happy because:

- My dog wore his Thunder Shirt again last night for about an hour or so and did really well in it.
- My work day was as calm as I expected. I feel good about the amount of work I got done.
- My new bathroom sink and vanity were delivered today. They should be starting on the remodel soon.
- I have officially begun my Christmas shopping. I bought a present for my husband today.
- I had a doctor visit to follow-up on my lab work and everything looked good.
- I tried a new sandwich at Wendy's, the Italian Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich, and it was pretty tasty.
- My dog snuggled with me on the couch this evening.
 
I got some really sweet belated birthday wishes, and some Monday tbt from @/Mr_Keroppi! ^^
I saw a beaver swimming through a creek today!! 🦫 It was my first time seeing one in real life!
My family and I watched another episode of SmallishBeans' Empires series! My mom and I also watched Markiplier's recent Getting Over It streams this evening and they were seriously funny omg
Also played Pokémon Legends: Arceus for a little bit!
 
- Had a nice day, I went out with my friend to go watch Black Panther 2, and got my copy of Pokemon Violet! 💜 I didn't know that the shop were giving out little figures of the starters along with the game, so I got one of those too
- Black Panther 2 was actually good! I've not enjoyed a Marvel movie so much in a while tbh. Just overall it was a fun day, it felt kinda christmasy too because the festive lights were up in town.
 
@Mr_Keroppi surprised me with a nice message and some bells yesterday. I definitely wasn’t expecting it, so it made my morning better. Thank you for brightening the mornings of many.
I worked with my favorite person for the first time in over a few months. It was nice working with her again even if I was somewhat distracted. My anxiety was quite high despite her being there, but she was able to calm me down. Also, she told me she loves me the way I am, and given the fact that I’m basically obsessed with her, that means a lot to me. I can tell she means it, too.

I just find it hard to believe sometimes that someone can care about me as much as she does.
I ordered new shoes in they finally arrived in the mail. I’m not a fan of white rubber because it dirties easily, so I’ll just have to keep them clean everyday. I only wanted black rubber…

I also ordered a new hat today. It didn’t arrive yet, so the attached image is the stock photo. I’m not sure I’ll be able to pull off a flat bill, so I may just end up wearing it backwards. The color was just too sick to pass up.

Today I'm happy because:

- My work day wasn't as easy as yesterday, but it still wasn't too bad.
- I was able to take a walk on both my morning and afternoon breaks.
- I was supposed to record a training session this afternoon, but it got rescheduled. I don't like public speaking and, even though I know the material really well, I got a bad case of anxiety beforehand. I know I'll still have to do it next week, but I'm happy for the extra time.
- I forgot to mention yesterday that I received a kind message and a few bells from @Mr_Keroppi. It always brings a smile to my face.
- My husband's Christmas present should be delivered tomorrow.
- My dog cuddled up next to me on the couch this evening.
- Tomorrow is my last day of work for the week! Hoping for an enjoyable Thanksgiving weekend.
 
Today was pretty busy, but...
I watched another GoodTimesWithScar video with my family!
Also got to play Pokemon Legends: Arceus for a while this evening! I made some really good research progress and got to recover some player satchels too.
I went to redeem the My Nintendo weekly sign-in bonus for platinum points, and got a huge birthday bonus too!! ;v; I didn't even know that was a thing tbh, but it's going to be a great help for my icon element collecting ahaha
 
happy tuesday, friends! had another uneventful but good day today! i hope you all are doing well!

𓆩♡𓆪 went to school. i didn’t get any work done as i was too tired this morning haha, but the new assignment introduced today doesn’t seem like it’ll be too hard to complete! the math quiz on thursday has also been moved to monday, which i’m grateful for as that gives me more time to study and focus on the new assignment.
𓆩♡𓆪 continued watching the crown. i’m very close to being done season 2! one of the episodes i watched coincidentally revolved around JFK and his wife, which i thought was sort of ironic considering today is the 59th anniversary of his assassination.
𓆩♡𓆪 while she was out today, my mom bought me 2 glass deer christmas tree ornaments! they’re so pretty. 🥰 the light-up christmas tree poster she bought from etsy also arrived today! we’ll probably hang it up once it’s december, or at least closer to it, and i’ll share a pic of it then. :’)
my photo doesn’t really do how pretty they are justice. i love how they look when the light hits them!

𓆩♡𓆪 my mom also bought me a few bottles of voltage mountain dew (my favourite soda)!
𓆩♡𓆪 ya’ll already know who. 🖤

𓆩♡𓆪 spent my late afternoon/early evening listening to some good music!
𓆩♡𓆪 did some self-care.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- It was my nephew's birthday! I texted him to wish him a happy birthday and he already received his present.
- I had a very relaxed day of work. I got a few more emails cleared out of my inbox and did some prep work for next week.
- I logged off early and I'm done with work for the next four days!
- The contractor came by to deliver the majority of the materials for our bathroom remodel.
- The Christmas present I ordered for my husband arrived today.
- I had a good massage therapy session.
- I went by the pet store to pick up a few things and saw several cute dogs. I met a tiny chiweenie named Charlie who had the cutest ears.
- I purchased a hedgehog plushie to donate to children in need.
- I'm feeling very calm about all the family gatherings coming up.
- My husband has been very sweet to me and my dog has been really good lately.
- I think I've decided on a Christmas theme and lineup for this year, but I'm not going to break it out until after Thanksgiving.
 
Catching up on a few days for this post! My Christmas tree is up and decorated 🎄 I love the ambience that it brings and my cat has been enjoying chilling under the tree. I treated myself to a new hoodie and spent one of my eshop giftcards on a couple of games, taking advantage of some of the sales this time of year. Did a fair bit of cooking to prepare for the rest of the week, including some yummy banana chocolate chip muffins. Lastly I've recieved some nice messages from friends that have put me in a better mood 🥰
 
hoo boy, it’s been a long, but pretty good day! looking forward to hopefully getting some rest tonight. 😴

𓆩♡𓆪 read 3 fanfics that i enjoyed. one was based on a request i sent to the writer again, and it was so lovely! such a heartwarming, sweet little story it was. 🥰 can’t get over this writer’s talent and generosity for bringing so many people’s requests to life. <3
𓆩♡𓆪 continued watching the crown — i’ve finally made it to season 3! i already miss claire foy as queen elizabeth II a lot, and admittedly matt smith as prince philip as well (even though philip annoyed me a lot the first 2 seasons lol), but i’m excited to see how this season goes!
𓆩♡𓆪 received my mark for the math assignment i did on monday — i got 15/15 marks!! 🥳 i was a bit iffy about a couple of my answers, so i’m vv happy and proud that everything was correct after all!
𓆩♡𓆪 had my 4th physiotherapy appointment today. it went alright! i did my exercises fairly easy and without discomfort, including the new ones my physiotherapist showed me! a couple of them were kinda hard since they involved having to balance, and i don’t have much of that lol, but i did the best i could! :’) my mom also treated me to a pomegranate smoothie after, and it was delicious!
𓆩♡𓆪 on the way home from physio, i saw a squirrel running across some grass with a peanut in his/her mouth! their run looked more like they were bouncing, though, which i thought was adorable. 🥺
𓆩♡𓆪 tbt’s thanksgiving raffle! i really didn’t think staff would do anything this year with how hard they’ve already worked this year, so a raffle was such a lovely surprise! staff spoils us fr. 🥰 i would absolutely love a pie collectible (the new key lime pie one is so cute!), but i’d be happy with the consolation tbt! i love that everyone who enters will receive something. so generous! <33
𓆩♡𓆪 tidied up my room a bit.
𓆩♡𓆪 played new horizons for the first time in almost a month tonight!
𓆩♡𓆪 did some self-care.

That I've decided to come back after a few months away. I missed a few people on here and can't wait to talk to them once again.
welcome back! i’ve missed seeing you around. ☺️
