Family celebrated my mom's birthday today which was really fun! We pitched in for dinner and cake. The caked look great and tasted really good, and I know it's because my store really likes her and miss having her work there!

We also pitched in for an early birthday present for my grandma and got her a new mattress! She loves it! It's nice and firm and has a pillow top on it.
 
Happy to be feeling so much better than I have the past few days. Work was good just busy. We got some much needed rain today and the storm wasn’t as bad as they originally thought it might be.

Had so much fun playing among us with everyone. Thanks so much for letting me play with you all.

Finished my drawing that I started the other day.

Hope everyone had a good weekend and has a good week ahead. 💜
 
Got to see a couple more episodes of Demon Slayer season three this morning!! And we watched more of GeminiTay’s Impossible Minecraft video tonight over dinner, and we’re almost through with it now! c: We’ll probably finish it out tomorrow night.

I worked on some art today! ^^

Explored Sea Mauville in Pokémon Omega Ruby and caught Spiritomb!! Afterwards it was time for some legendary hunting, and throughout the day I was able to catch all the ones I could for now—Ho-Oh, Entei, Suicune, Raikou, Heatran, Mesprit, Uxie, Azelf, Palkia, Cobalion, and Tornadus!! ohh my god I went through So Many ultra balls Hopefully I can also catch Virizion and Terrakion as they become available this week, and I’ll be crossing my fingers for Cresselia’s Mirage Spot to appear! ;v; There's also Reshiram ofc but I don't expect to meet the requirements for it to appear for a while yet heh

I haven't done much with the garden in Pocket Camp Complete, but I decided to start working on it tonight! I'm starting with the dandelions since they seem to be the easiest. 🌼 and while looking up hybrid breeding guides, I stumbled across some made by Mistreil! It's a small world 🌏
 
Woke up an hour earlier than normal, and decided to stay awake to try and get throw some animal crossing journal stuff, though the site I was using to resize videos decided to take it's time, so I didn't get much done.

Work was of course more chaos, but I had time - since my boss was coming in late - to stock up the lil chocolates since it's been a while anyone did that and it was more relaxing to do than anything else.
An old coworker who comes in for coffees for her and her friend, they as a treat bought me this lil bag of sweets in a nice gift bag and everything~

Home now :D
Came back to find a amiibo card arrive in the mail from my recent trade, welcome Hugh.

Now i have time to work on some job applications, my DIY, animal crossing and hopefully some writing or photography. Or even some drawings?
 
Happy today because I got up early and am being productive at work. I also have martial arts tonight and the weather outside is lovely! Also, after almost five years of actively playing gacha games, I'm super ecstatic to say that I've finally reached max level in both Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero, and Wuthering Waves! It's really awesome for me as someone who always wanted to reach max level in online games when I was younger, but never got the chance to.

Hope everyone has a great day and great week ahead! 💚

Today sucked. I guess I'm living for evenings and weekends right now. 🥲

But do you know what I'm really appreciative for? My little family.

Yes she consented to me posting this.

I came to the realisation today that everything in my life would be different if I had never met this woman. I wouldn't live in this city, we wouldn't own this house, I wouldn't be in my current job (which I like when not dealing with problematic colleagues), I wouldn't have my ADHD and CFS diagnoses and be getting support for these, and I wouldn't have my axolotls or kitties. This time three years ago I didn't even know her - we didn't meet until late April 2022. A lot has changed and I'm eternally grateful. I love the life we are building together. 💕

For today's small joys. I came home and got caught up on chores and I'm feeling good about the state of my environment. Made myself a burrito bowl for dinner. Watched a couple of episodes of Star Trek: Voyager with my partner.

Think I need an early night though. Exhausted. 😴
 
  • We had a potluck for St. Patrick’s Day in my apartment building today. The food was so good!
  • I slept really good , slept about 5 or 6 hours last night then took a 3 hour nap in the middle of the morning. That’s been my habit now for a few days. Sleep 5-6 hours at night. Get up early around 5am and then go back to sleep around 10am for a 1-3 hour nap.
  • I have a therapy appointment tomorrow, happy about that
  • Been working hard on DBT and CBT for my PTSD , schizoaffective bipolar disorder, and Social anxiety disorder and it’s been helpful. And doing EMDR in therapy for trauma reprocessing. My meds have helped a lot too. I’m grateful to finally have an effective team now, my psychiatrist is great and so is my therapist. I didn’t realize how ineffective my last therapist was until I got this new one. And I was with the other one for 8 years, so I wasn’t really getting effective therapy for 8 whole years. My trauma history was never addressed or even asked about. And it’s a huge issue, I didn’t even receive the PTSD diagnosis until a few weeks ago and I’m 30 and the trauma was from ages 7 to 18. My current psychiatrist was shocked I hadn’t received that diagnosis up until now. So that’s not good. But at least I have a more effective therapist and psychiatrist now and all my problems are being equally addressed.
  • A member here requested a drawing in my art thread which I did yesterday and am happy with how it turned out. I love when people request stuff because it makes me draw or paint outside of my typical comfort zone.
  • I can’t remember if I mentioned this but I had a dentist appointment last week for a cleaning/xrays annd exam. and had NO cavities. None. That is huge because dental hygiene is something I’ve struggled with for a long time due to mental health So yay :)
 
I’m not doing really great but posting something that made me happy earlier to try to help me focus on the more positive things today.

I started playing one of my gacha games again and have been enjoying it. I got a new unit and the UR ark :D.

I really hope they release an art book some day including art from the collabs; their art is the best of all the games I play.

Both my girls gave me plenty of snuggles earlier.

That’s honestly it; I’m hoping things will get better later.
 
I caught Virizion and beat the Pokémon League in Omega Ruby today, and also got started on the Delta Episode!!

I had something super cool and lucky happen today!!! ;w; Kinda fitting given the holiday… I was wearing green too!* 💚
*(my Team Froggy Chair embroidery floss bracelets!!)

Worked on some art for a bit!

My parents and I finished watching GeminiTay’s Impossible Minecraft video!
 
I went out to dinner with my sister and dad tonight! I'm really happy we finally got to spend some time together. We all live together, but with everyone having their own things going on, we rarely get to hang out. I'm also excited because we’ve planned to hit up a brewery on Friday 🍻
I hope everyone has a good week! 😊
 
- I got plenty of sleep today and woke up feeling refreshed after having a headache a few days ago.
- Worked on a portrait drawing and made some progress.
- Ate a sandwich from Subway that tasted great. I'm trying to eat healthier after having chocolate cookies.
- Caught up with some anime and finished the season.
 
I'm flying out today! Just (mostly) finished packing :)

I've actually had an extremely nasty cold for the past few days but it is seemingly improving (my throat doesn't feel like I'm swallowing knives anymore, at least). I'm hoping it'll clear up while I'm on my trip 🤞

It's a really beautiful day today
 
Finished work for the day~☆
It was really busy this morning and I was on my own, but I got everything done before my late boss got in.

I applied to three jobs yesterday, and plan to write those um ah- feature article and answer another job application questions.
I might start writing that latter to send to HMRC national insurance since I can't get a real person on call.

I feel more inspired to draw today. And if I have time, some photo edits or something like yhat. Maybe even update my new leaf journal?

Been getting back into reading fanfiction again, phineas and ferb so far.

  • Went for an Ultrasound on my hands, fingers and wrists this morning with a Rheumatologist specialist. I got the appointment via post during November so I was happy that today finally arrived. I previously attended him for an Ultrasound and found out more in that one appointment than attending my regular consultant/nurse on a regular basis. After the scan, I was told my joints do have inflammation and it needs to be calmed down. He offered me 2 options: to have steroids injections or to get a course of tablets. I didn’t expect any offer today as I thought I would have to contact and plead with my Rheumatology Nurse again. I opted for the tablets, as I’ve had the injections before and didn’t work. It’s only a temporary measure for relief, but I've been asking for help from my ‘care team’ only to fall on deaf ears. I call them, they say they will call back but haven't done so. He also told me if I didn’t hear from my consultant or nurse in about 3 weeks to contact them to see what options we can take to proceed before the temporary medication runs out. Hopefully I can collect them in a few days!
  • Got Blossom some new toys, a hat and Easter treats. Will they last until Easter? Probably not! :ROFLMAO:
  • Tried 2 new variations of Pepsi: Strawberries and Cream, and Cream Soda. Both were nice, but the Cream Soda one was my favourite!
  • Got a Japanese Import CD of Sir Elton John and Billy Joel - Live in Tokyo (1998). Really great fun to hear Elton singing Uptown Girl!
