What Are You Happy About Today?

- Went out for lunch with my friend, had a good time catching up with him and tried an eggs benedict for the first time! It was really nice šŸ˜€

- Came home, had a warm bath, and then had a slice of bakery carrot cake. A good feeling considering it's been freezing cold and rainy all day (though now it's extremely sunny??)

- My mum is making chickpea + cauliflower korma for dinner tonight, so looking forward to it.

- Overall a good food day I suppose šŸ˜…
 
ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· the weather outside was absolutely glorious today! it wasnā€™t too hot, too cold, and it was vv sunny! ā˜€ļø i didnā€™t think iā€™d get to enjoy it much, but i decided to take some time for myself after dinner and go for a walk! it was a short one, but i still had a nice time! lots of people were out enjoying the lovely weather as well, and i got to see a bunch of dogs + say hello to a couple of my neighbours! now that the weatherā€™s getting nicer, iā€™m going to try and make it a habit to go on walks more often ā˜ŗļø

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· did two new tasks by myself for the first time! albeit theyā€™re simple tasks lol, iā€™m still proud of myself :ā€™)

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· she šŸ–¤šŸ–¤

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· had another decent day at school! iā€™m feeling extra grateful that i had this past weekend to myself to just relax, because now my workload is picking up and iā€™m starting to get busy again šŸ˜… gotta take things one day at a time, though!

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· received my mark back on an assignment i completed last week, and i got 5/5 marks, plus some really thoughtful feedback from my teacher! šŸ„³

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· a new chapter of one of the multi-chapter fanfics iā€™ve been reading was published, and i enjoyed it a lot!
 
Spoilers for medication mention.

I started Adderall today to help my silly little ADHD and I've not felt this happy in a LONG TIME. even the comedown isn't bad like I was originally expecting. It's so crazy that I have this treatment available now for something that I thought would plague me forever... Relief! I'm so happy!! AND I got my thyroid meds so I'm REALLY in track to becoming a healthier version of myself!! 2023 WILL be my year šŸ˜
 
Today I'm happy because:

- We had a plumber come install a new sump pump and clear the outdoor drain, so all of that should work properly now. We haven't had a chance to test it yet, but it's supposed to rain all weekend so fingers crossed it goes well and we don't end up with water all over the basement again.
- I made it through my work day and completed everything I promised to do today.
- I got to take a walk on my morning break and leave early this afternoon.
- I had a good session with my massage therapist.
- I had a delicious veggie stromboli for dinner and I have leftovers for tomorrow.
- We spent the evening with my in-laws, niece and nephews at the lake house they rented for spring break. I love getting to see the kids!
- We took a boat ride on the lake as the sun was setting.
- We saw several deer on the drive home. Luckily none of them tried to cross the road. We were keeping an eye on them.
- My dog was so happy to see us when we got home. He's asleep in his bed beside me right now and looks so adorable.
 
āž£ I should be permanently moving to morning shifts sooner rather than later. My replacement was just hired and I just need to train her for the closing shifts. This is moving wayyyy faster than Iā€™d imagined!
āž£ I worked a long shift at my second job today which will be great for my paycheck.
āž£ I was informed that my bracelet for Disney World arrived in the mail. Itā€™s used as a hotel key and entry for parks. Too bad it has my deadname on it. At least itā€™s very subtle, though.
āž£ Overall, itā€™s been an stress-free day, and I see my favorite person tomorrow. Fun times!
 
ā˜¾ I played Rune Factory 5 for a little while today! I'm almost through getting all the second stage renovations done on this file, though I think I'll probably switch back to my other file soon.
ā˜¾ Was finally able to squeeze in the time to work on my current art request some more! I've had a lot going on but I'm glad to have gotten back to it.
ā˜¾ My parents and I caught up a little more with GoodTimesWithScar's Limited Life series, and my mom and I got to hang out for a while afterwards!
 
Iā€™ve been itching for some nostalgia recently, so I decided to pick up Animal Crossing GameCube again for the first time and years. I had forgotten how much I love this game, and the simplicity of it. I got one of my favourite villagers as one of my starters!!! Deena! The graphics and the old personality types in this game make me so happy šŸ™ƒ
 
I applied for a part-time job at McDonalds, I passed the sreening, so they will contact me to set up an interview within 3 business days

It's gonna be hell on my social anxiety if I get hired but I feel it will be good for me in the long run. And I really need a part-time job to start getting experience
 
ā˜¾ Fought and defeated the Ender Dragon in Minecraft today for the first time ever! I had some time afterwards to earn a few easy achievements too, so I'm quite happy with the play session I had.
ā˜¾ I played Rune Factory 5 this evening too! Won the Autumn Harvest Festival on this file and I've gotten to the point where I can handle the first couple floors of the Rigbarth Maze without too much troubleā€”the yellow dragons on the third floor are another story, but I'll figure out how best to deal with them later ahahah.
ā˜¾ Watched some Youtube videos with my family! GeminiTay swapping in for ZombieCleo on Limited Life was a lot of fun.
 
donā€™t have much to talk about today, but i hope youā€™re all doing well <3 the weekendā€˜s almost here!

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· had my weekly session with my counsellor today, and it went really well! she finally sent a referral for me to receive a psych reevaluation, which iā€™ve been wanting for so, so long. i received my first (and only) psych evaluation when i was like 10, and things have definitely changed since then heh. iā€™m not sure whatā€™ll come of it, but iā€™m so grateful that itā€™s finally in motion! kinda nervous tho, wish me luck lol <3

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· helped my dad clean up the kitchen after dinner!

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· did some self-care ^^

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· came up with some more new lineup ideas! new collectibles and tbt events always inspire me to create new lineups, i love it sm ā˜ŗļø

ĖĖ‹Ā°ā€¢*ā€āž· this community is genuinely so kind?? iā€™m just scrolling through and i see people giving away in-game stuff, art, collectibles, compliments etc all the time and itā€™s like wowā€¦ everyone is so incredible?? the kindness yaā€™ll show to me and to others always warms my heart, i love it here šŸ’™
 
Today I'm happy because:

- There were no new issues at work today! Yay!
- I had a busy day of meetings but still managed to complete my most important tasks and clear out some emails.
- The weather was gorgeous again. I love this summer-like weather!
- I saw some cute neighborhood dogs on our afternoon walk.
- I saw Olive, the bunny, and Fergie, the groundhog in our yard today.
- I forgot to mention this yesterday but when we were out on the boat, we saw a heron standing on the shoreline, then it flew away. It was my first time seeing one in real life.
- I had a nice shower this evening. I didn't get a chance to take one yesterday so it felt extra good today.
- I had my leftover veggie stromboli for dinner.
- Tomorrow is Friday!
 
āž£ My favorite person informed me she purchased the DLC for Mario Kart 8. Iā€™m glad she can finally use Birdo, who admittedly was not a favorite of mine but she very quickly grew on me. Plus, she uses the Blue Birdo because it reminds her of me. We were also talking in a group setting for no more than a few minutes and ofc we ended up with our arms around each other, lmao. I just loved how she was holding my waist the whole time. Itā€™s that level of protection I never knew I needed.
āž£ She also asked me how things are going with my mom since we havenā€™t exactly been on the best of terms until recently. It means a lot to me that sheā€™s checking on me.
āž£ Not sure if Iā€™ve mentioned this before, but the girl my mom is bringing with us to Disney World has a Switch, and we have been playing Mario Kart a ton. I also appreciate my mom adding me in later to the hotel reservations. Itā€™s only a two bed, and my mom is fine sharing a bed with the friend, so I can have my own bed.
She booked everything way back in January and I didnā€™t agree to go until last month, lol.
āž£ Iā€™m just happy my mom and I are finally getting along. It really was a long time coming.
āž£ I had chicken nuggets earlier from McDonaldā€™s. I had a brilliant idea to pour buffalo and ranch sauce on them in the container and shake it. It was a huge improvement to the usual nuggets.
