What Are You Happy About Today?

[LadyDestani]

Today I'm happy because:

- I saw Olive, the rabbit, again last night in my yard.
- I've been sleeping pretty well.
- I'm enjoying the more leisurely pace of the mornings now that I can work from home again.
- I saw several dogs on my afternoon walk. I've been seeing a few new dogs around the neighborhood.
- The weather was a bit cloudy but pleasantly warm.
- The night sky looked very pretty this evening with a low crescent moon and a few stars around it.
- I only work half a day tomorrow before going to an eye appointment.

Mum surprised me with a Cadbury Creme Egg when I got in the car from work

( yes I know it’s not Easter yet )

A Cadbury Creme Egg is delicious anytime. I hope they have them when I go to the store this Friday.

☾ I forgot my second pillow I'd been using to prop myself up while I was sick, but apparently I didn't need it because I slept really well last night anyway! Also I don't normally like how easily my mood is swayed by the kinds of dreams I have, but I had really good dreams last night and while my energy still isn't entirely back, emotionally-speaking I was in a super good mood pretty much all day.
☾ And I definitely am less tired than I was yesterday! I need frequent breaks still but I'm finally starting to be able to catch up on housework and things now.
☾ I went back to Pokemon HeartGold and I've almost finished levelling up my team to take on the Ecruteak Gym! Next time for sure.
☾ Played a little bit of ACNH too! I'm actually a little ahead on my dailies now thanks to some time-traveling, hehehe.
☾ And I finally felt well enough to play some Rune Factory 5 today!! I've missed playing so much, it felt like it'd been forever. ;w; Also I can buy clothes now!! I'm really going to have to try my hardest not to go broke on new outfits lol.

Been feeling pretty good physically these past few days aside from the normal red dot.
It's been warm and rainy and sunny. It's like spring even though it's February and it makes me really happy.

I've gotten to spend more of the week resting and getting back into playing Animal Crossing some more, after a short hiatus!

➣ My favorite person was being distant for the past week because she was sick, but feels a lot better now. Y’all know how my BPD brain works so I thought she was mad at me, but she was as sweet as ever today. I love her motioning me for a hug, which was reassuring after thinking she was upset.
➣ I had a Dragon Drink from Starbucks! I don’t like coffee so I opt for the refreshers. They even carry the Pink Drink at a local gas station so I can get them in bottles there.
➣ This was very long overdue but I threw my vape away. I was offered one by my friend (who’s a minor, no less) who said it would help my stress. I’ve only done it a few times. I know there are better coping mechanisms, and I’m disappointed in myself to have even accepted it in the first place.
An adult receiving nicotine from a minor, what? I’m completely done with it, though.
➣ I’ve been in a much better mood today than I have been over the past week for obvious reasons. I also get paid sometime tonight, so there’s something to look forward to.

☾ I finished a couple more rubber band bracelets! I've almost used up another color too, although I'm hoping to get a few more bracelets out of it.
☾ I feel like my energy is coming back! I was able to do the housework like normal without needing to take breaks, though I was pretty tired afterwards.
☾ My mom and I caught up some more with Danny Gonzalez' Minecraft series and it's been absolutely hilarious.
☾ I got some incredible pictures of my tuxedo kitty! One where he looked like a giant floating head because of the angle ahahaha, a mlem, and one of him about to attacc <3 Our other cat came over for a second and graciously allowed me to take her photo too.

Spoiler: cat pics

☾ Speaking of her, my torbie kitty was also feeling very playful today! She finally decided to start appreciating the mouse toy we got for her, oh, I don't know, probably a year ago.
☾ And I had an absolute blast playing Rune Factory 5 again today! It went really well and I was able to get a lot done—definitely looking forward to next time too, but it was getting late so I had to put it down for the evening, eheh. ;w;

Today I'm happy because:

- I slept very deeply last night, so deeply that I did not want to get up this morning and hit snooze for an extra 30 minutes.
- I made it through my half day of work and managed to multi-task to get a few things done during my 3 hours of meetings.
- The weather was so warm and pleasant. It got up to 80 degrees Fahrenheit as the high this afternoon.
- My husband and I got lunch together on our way to the eye doctor. Nothing special, just fast food, but it was nice to eat out with him on a workday.
- My eyes are healthy and the doctor said my near-sightedness is actually getting a tiny bit better. I picked out some new frames and I hope they look good.
- Tomorrow is Friday, my last day of work for the week.
- My bonus pay was deposited in my bank today. Taxes took a chunk, but it's still a nice amount.
- Also, I forgot to mention last night that I logged in to find I had been gifted a Green Christmas Stocking from @/Childe. It was such a sweet surprise and really did make me happy!

One last additional thing to be happy about today, but the Dallas Mavericks notched their first Doncic-Irving win together by winning against the San Antonino Spurs 142-116 tonight!!

Wed., Feb. 22nd
♡ I made omelettes in cooking class! It may or may not have quite literally fallen apart when we tried to flip it, but it was still really good!

♡ Watched some South Park! I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the episode where Cartman sings Poker Face (by Lady Gaga), haha.

♡ Went to my grandma's house to eat spaghetti for dinner! I was really happy to see her, too. ^^

♡ Played some AC:NH and finally caught an oarfish! I missed my chance last year and had to wait till they were available again. Now I only need four more fish to catch for my critterpedia!

Thurs., Feb. 23rd
♡ I watched a ton of South Park! I got to see the 'superhero saga' episodes I was looking forward to, and I really enjoyed it! I also have one more episode in season 14 to watch before moving onto the next season, so that's cool!

♡ I made caramel-centered chocolate doughnut holes in cooking class! It was pretty good, but I think we could've done better. (The caramel didn't even melt. ) I wanna try the recipe at home and see if I can improve!

♡ Wookie was extra cuddly today. I'm so happy that we have one of our cats back in our household.

♡ I have no school tomorrow (technically today by the time I post this), so I have a three-day weekend!

Played a lot with my dog (he has so much energy….) then picked up some new prayer plants for my collection, and that my artblock is mostly gone

 

[hakutaku]

- Got a good 6 hours sleep last night!
- Fridays are my longest days at uni, so I'm glad I got today over with haha
- Washed my hair when I got home, so feeling refreshed!
- Had some sourdough toast, which I've been really loving recently. It's great with just butter, or peanut butter + jam

Background: I'm from the US and have lived in Japan for the last few years. Last August I was able to go back to my hometown for the first time in 3 years. Now I'm visiting again since I don't know when the next time I can go is.

❁Babysat my nephews with my parents.

❁I met up with someone from hs (I graduated almost 10 years ago) and learned a lot about where people in my friend group ended up/how they've changed.

Since I haven't kept in contact with people (and I'm definitely a different person now in some ways) I learned a lot of things!

❁Looking forward to another new episode of RPDR tonight

❁Last night I finished setting up the basic places I want to hit in my Korea trip next month. I still need to keep researching things but I'm glad I have a general plan. I need to get more consistent at learning Korean, though.

❁I'm definitely finishing up the final touches on my Japanese resume tonight before getting it checked! I'm having a call with my assigned agent from a recruitment site next week Wednesday. Feels good to get the ball rolling.

➣ I worked with my dish partner twice this week who I haven’t seen in over a month. He’s very autistic and pretty much only gets along with me in my position. He did such a great job today and helped me stay caught up during an extremely busy morning.
➣ I briefly saw my favorite person today. I know those with BPD tend to idealize but I stg she’s literally perfect. I don’t think I’ve ever come across a person so incredibly sweet and understanding, and just who’s genuinely *that* good of a person. It’s not her just tolerating me because she genuinely still wants to be in my life and constantly reassures me of that. If I were her, I’d personally be done with my **** by now, so I’m thankful she’s still around. If you have BPD this is literally everything you want in a favorite person.
➣ I have the next two days off work to relax and play Mario Kart. I’m looking forward to sleeping in and having time to myself this weekend.
➣ I did some shopping for food since I’ve been paid. I picked up a few things from the store that I liked, including some snacks.

Happy today because it's been raining for the last couple of days and more is to come later. We really need the rain, plus it's so nice to listen to the rain and play some games. ^-^

Also, my dad and I took our two little cuties, Maggie and Mika, our dogs out for a car ride to get some food. They love those so much and when we say "Wanna go for a car ride?" They absolutely love it when we say that and go nuts.

Today I'm happy because:

- I slept pretty well again last night.
- I had a relatively calm day at work and got a decent amount of work done.
- A friend came over to hang out for a while.
- It's Friday and I'm ready for the weekend.

☾ Played some more Minecraft today and earned a couple more achievements!! I am... very happy to be done with the Nether for the time being at least; I died many more times than I'd like to admit.
☾ I have officially given up Twitter altogether!! I was already on a private account that was mainly just for gaming news and uploading Switch screenshots, but it was still too easy to waste time looking at trending stuff—which would, inevitably, make my mood worse too. So I finally just deleted the app, and I think it was a good move.
☾ I got to play Rune Factory 5 some more today too! There's just something super cozy about it and I always have so much fun playing aaaaa ;v;
☾ And I finished a couple more rubber band bracelets! Just some pretty basic ones, but I like having something to do with my hands while I'm focused on other things.
