I've never had monarchs lay eggs on my plants before. After moving a chrysalis a while ago to ensure it wouldn't be food for predators, I woke up to this handsome gentleman this morning.

I named him King Ghidorah 🥲 ❤️ 🦋

Hopefully I catch this little one pupating so I can witness the magic all over again

Had this last week off from work, which is always great, so this is from numerous days

✨ spent last weekend with my sister, her partner and their little baby boy (almost 8 weeks old, can't believe how quickly time flies!) - we had a nice trip out and spent the evenings finishing off the last couple of Pokemon movies as we've recently been working through them all ☺️

✨ had a lovely night away in one of the counties quite close to me, visited a small country hotel that I've stayed at a few times but not for quite a few years - was as great as I remembered and a fab short trip away!

✨ celebrated my birthday with my family, always a special evening when we can get everyone together and was great seeing them all! also received many lovely birthday messages from friends on and off the forum 💕

✨ really pleased that the weather has started to cool down - love the cooler, later time of year (nothing beats Christmas for me!) and we had a new fireplace put in yesterday so now the house feels extra super cosy, can't wait to snuggle up under a throw in front of the fire with many hot chocolates during the winter 🥰
 
I filmed this video at a barn. (They were open for visiting and let us pet the animals). Some of them were walking free without any gate. Urm, forgive the terrible video title name.

I was feeding the goats later. Then a chicken started following me around. Not the same one as in this video though. I believe the one I recorded here was a hen.

There was almost nobody here so I had all the animals to myself. It was heavenly.

  • Managed to get the car hoovered and removed nearly all of Blossom's hair! Will give the windows a clean tomorrow. I think there is more fur in the car than on Blossom, considering I only cleaned it a few weeks ago! I don't mind though, I wouldn't swap her!
  • Some of my lovely TBT friends gifted me Yellow Candies! I was lucky enough to get 2 Friday the 13th Candies! I would have been so happy with one, but two I can't believe it?! Plus, the way I got them worked out fantastic line-up wise!
  • Played some Disney Dreamlight Valley. I am still stuck on one stage, I think I am going to have to look online how to pass this stage as it is really annoying me. It will probably be something simple, but I can't work it out! Also, played some New Horizons.
  • Finished watching 'Hatton Garden'. It was really good.
  • I'm heading to bed, and it's very windy outside and raining. I love listening to it especially in the darkness laying in bed.
 
Today has been a great day off. Happy to have received some yellow candy as gifts by some amazing friends. Happy that 4 of them transformed. Two into Friday the 13th candy and 2 into corrupted rainbow candy. One that transformed into a Friday the 13th candy was a gift from the amazing @Xara .

Spent the morning shopping with my mom. Bought two books and these really cute magnetic bookmarks. We stopped and got pizza on the way home. This afternoon we put up some fall decorations. Spent some time on a drawing and played some ACNH.

Some happiness for the week:
Last Friday the 6th me and mom went to visit my brother and his girlfriend. Her parents were in town. It was nice catching up with them and meeting her parents. Also getting lots of Buck cuddles.
We went to a few of my cousins daughters volleyball games and they are now 5-1. She was excited that we came to see her .

I was able to draw some more for the canvass crossing event before it ended . Had so much fun with it. I might try and draw a few more to surprise people with.
Hope everyone had a good week and a great week ahead.

One of the yellow candies I bought during the Friday the 13th event transformed into a Pale Wix Candy! It's a big deal because it was the first impostor collectible I ever owned (even if it was for a brief moment). I don't consider myself a fan of "dark" collectibles, so I immediately gave it away to my love @ZeldaCrossing64, who wanted one much more than me. I'm even more happy they became the proud owner of their dream collectible! To tell the truth, I only joined to help them out so mission accomplished, I guess! 🍬🩶

Also, I forgot to post about it when it happened but we had Wing Stop yesterday and I got to eat a bunch of fries. Yum! 🍗🍟

I hope everything's going well for you all right now. I'm not in the best position at the moment but I'm managing. :^)

@ZeldaCrossing64 may not be my love 😆 but I do consider him a friend, and from past experiences I know he likes black and purple flowers. Would he like a Friday the 13th candy? One of my yellow candies turned into one.

I think he would appreciate it more than me!

Sorry, they're nonbinary! They prefer they/them pronouns.

I can't answer that last part for them though, so let's see what they think. I call them my love because we're close! 🥰

Ahh, don't worry about it! And I already have six F13 candies to my name, but I appreciate the thought! I'm glad you consider me a friend. ☺️

I had a pretty uneventful day, but I came here to post about my new Pale Wix Candy that @Suguri gifted me! I've expressed my gratitude a ton already, but I am super grateful about it nonetheless. Thanks for brightening my day, ma cherie. 🩶
 
☾ One of the Yellow Candies I bought this morning transformed into a Corrupted Rainbow Candy!! ;v; I’m so glad I bought those few extra and I know it’ll pair super nicely with my normal Rainbow Candy aaaa. 🖤🏳️‍🌈 One of the ones I bought yesterday transformed into a Friday the 13th Candy as well!

☾ Watched an episode of Hunter x Hunter and Delicious in Dungeon with my parents this morning!! We also got to see a few short Youtube videos later on c:

☾ I worked on some personal art today!! Happy with how it’s coming along too aaaa

☾ And I spent much of the evening playing Among Us!! Super cool that we actually had a full room at one point; I had a hard time keeping up with everything going on with so many people LOL but it was a lot of fun!!
 
Today was good! I was happy that my candy that @azurill gave me transformed into another Friday the 13 candy! :D

I had so much fun playing Among Us today; we had a full session for the 8 PM session :D. I’m struggling still at remembering places I was at though and getting too absorbed in tasks. Hopefully in time I’ll get better 🙂. Chatting and bantering with everyone has been so fun. Also really grateful with everyone’s continued patience with my switch internet connection issues; I’m glad I have my tablet as backup 🙂.

I talked to some friends about something that I was a bit down about and they were understanding and supportive 🙂.

I’m really happy that a lot of people like what I did with my shop :D. @skarmoury in particular was the one who encouraged me to make an acnh shop 🙂. My friends all told me too how much they like my photo edits. I never thought much of it since I have just been casually making little silly collages for cat twitter and before that, tumblr.

Jewels let me play Among Us earlier with my tablet on her for a good amount of time; she was purring the whole time 🥹. I felt bad when the tablet fell and scared her. She is a big chicken little cat 😅.

That's definitely something to be happy about! I feel the same about mine :D


I've been doing good

I'm doing a 30 Christmas song ukulele challenge. I know it's a little early, but it gives me enough time to learn and record videos of me playing 30 Christmas songs between now and December on Facebook

  • I slept good last night :sleep:
  • My headache went away after some ibuprofen and caffeine (y)🍵
  • Have a therapy appointment tomorrow, we're starting EMDR to help with my past trauma, hopefully it's helpful
  • I've been watching a lot of movies lately and enjoying them
  • Enjoyed reading today, hit my reading goal today for 2024, I read 45 books so far and my goal was 45 books :D
