Month: August 2020

Day 162.

TGIF! I’m so glad it’s finally the weekend. 😊 I had a slow start today. I just finished my boba milk tea so I’ll be up for a few hours.

Animal Crossing update: My island is doing alright. I’ve been everywhere these last few days so I haven’t played as much.

I’m just thinking positive thoughts and I hope the universe sees that. I understand that everyone is going through a lot during this pandemic. I’m an empath. Our new normal is still an adjustment for most of us. I’m doing my best to adapt. Sending love to all of you – near and far! ❤️

My desk will be put together tomorrow. I’m looking forward to getting organized and having a space to finally call my own. My goal is to have it by my window. I’ve got a lot of art to put up too. Yay!

Giants win! We’re slowly making our way into the NL Wild Card race. I’m really happy they’re playing well these last few games. Bart changed the vibe. Yeah!!!

Well, I hope y’all had a nice one. Enjoy the weekend. Take care!

Good night.

Day 161.

I was very productive today! Hurrah. 🙂 I’m pacing myself through everything. It’s so important to just take breaks in between everything.

I’m feeling a little under the weather. It might be because of the smoke outside. I didn’t even go out there. I’m also sleepy since I didn’t nap.

Animal Crossing update: nothing new to report. Must reorganize items and figure out what else to put on Mango.

I think the word of the day is reflection. During this pandemic, I’ve done a lot of it. It’s nice getting to talk to someone new these last few weeks. I’ve gained another perspective.

Exciting times for the Giants. Joey Bart was called up! Yay!!! We won tonight and he got his big league hit. 🖤🧡 Glad he’s with us and I can’t wait to see what more he can contribute.

One more IKEA thing to build. My desk! Everything else is done. I’m planning to organize most of my belongings this weekend. Looking forward to it.

I’ve gotta watch the DNC remarks from tonight and Biden’s speech. He’s a sign of hope! ❤️

That was my day. I’m excited for the weekend. Hope y’all had a nice one. The Aces are on repeat btw. Love them!! 💗

Good night.

Day 160.

Currently playing: Holiday – Little Mix 🧜🏼‍♀️

How is Wednesday almost over?! 😱 Time went by pretty quickly this week.

California is currently dealing with a number of fires. Scary times in the state along with the pandemic. Stay safe, everyone!

San Francisco could come off the watch list as soon as tomorrow, but we must continue to be vigilant and practice all the guidelines to keep everyone safe. I’m still dealing with a lot of anxiety from all of this. Seeking connection has kind of been my saving grace. Keeping in touch with friends and family has also helped. I miss everyone! ❤️

George Michael, The Aces, and Little Mix have been on repeat. They are the current soundtracks of my life. Figuring things out for myself. I don’t want to jump to conclusions or expect too much. I had a very good teletherapy session with my therapist today and she gave me a lot of input & advice. I may take her up on it. We’ll see. Every risk in life requires being courageous!

Speaking of Little Mix, Happy 9th Anniversary! I love them so much and I still hope to see them live in the future. 💗

Happy World Photography Day!! 📸

Animal Crossing update: my island is pretty much the same. Flick is visiting. I’ve been a bit busy to keep up with my game. It’s good I’m enrolled in a course. It’s all about balance. I still love the game, but I’m investing my energy and time into my potential calling.

Giants defeat the Angels! We’ve got a 2 game winning streak. Woo!!! 🖤🧡

Planning to build my additional storage tomorrow. We’re almost done with all the furnishings. Two more projects!

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 159.

I’m honestly all over the place. That is the truth. I’m trying to deal with everything currently on my plate. Balance is key! I got this. 😎

I had to get my labs done today. The standing orders weren’t in the computer again so I had to play phone tag with my team. Next time I will give them advance notice so the orders are already in the computer. Yeesh. I think my labs are good. Hurrah! If it looks questionable, they’ll get back to me.

I tried the new ramen packets we have. Had that for lunch. It was really good! Just a lot of salt – so the next time I make it, I’ll adjust it.

August is flying by! I wish time would slow down. I’ve just been super anxious. 🙃

I played a bit of Animal Crossing when I woke up. Haven’t touched it since. I’m in the middle of my TEFL course. Doing my best to make progress daily.

Giants split the series in LAA! And I’m glad they’re returning home. 🖤🧡

I hope tomorrow works out. 🤞🏼 I’m sure it will. Ah!

Good night and take care!

Day 158.

Happy Monday! It’s a new week and I’m ready to tackle so many things on my to do list. Must pace myself. Everything is a work in progress.

I’ve been listening to a lot of songs that are in tune with my mood. Most of the songs are uplifting! So many badass female artists and groups. I love it!!! 🥰

Animal Crossing update: I didn’t play for too long today. Caroline wanted to move out and I declined. That means someone will ask again in a few days. I hope it’s the villager I don’t really like.

I’m taking care of my room. So many moving pieces, but it’ll all get done. Breathe.

I did have a decent night’s sleep. There was no lightning or thunder. Our dog did wake me up at a really inconvenient time. I went back to sleep for a few hours.

I went for my afternoon walk. It’s nice to spend a few minutes outside. 😷 I’ve got errands to run tomorrow. It shouldn’t take long though. I hope all my labs are good. Must finish some of my exercises before the day ends.

I’m just all over the place. 🙃 I also caught up with a friend on IG and recommended Last Christmas. She’s watching it right now and we’ll discuss once she’s done.

Well, I hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 157.

My sleep schedule was messed up. There was thunder and lightning! Throw in a very anxious dog and that equals insomnia. It was cool to see the lights in the sky. But the rumbling – not so much. I ended up sleeping in. I set an alarm, but I couldn’t even get up. I hope I get a better night’s sleep tonight.

I wanted to build something tonight, but it’s late and I’m pretty tired. Maybe the floor lamp? That’s fairly easy.

Highlight of my day: catching up with my coworkers! It’s been so long. It was nice to check in and see how everyone is doing. I miss them! ❤️

The Giants are a hot mess. We got swept! It pains me. Thankfully this season is short. Our bullpen is atrocious and our defense is nonexistent. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Back to fundamentals I guess. In happier sports news – Alex Smith has been cleared to play! I’m so happy for him. After his injury in 2018, he went through so much. When he was with the Niners I always cheered for him. I will continue to because he’s awesome!

Played Animal Crossing with Cristina. I gotta clean up my island. It’s a hot mess, but she got what she needed. Glad I could help.

Anyway, I’m hoping this week will be great! I’m anticipating for Wednesday, but breathe. I got this! 💁🏻‍♀️

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 156.

It was another hot one in SF. I decided to sleep in and complete my exercise indoors. It feels like Davis weather! 🥵

I was pretty productive today. I did another load of laundry, folded my clean laundry, and I’m about to put everything away. We’ve got 3 more things to build. Taking a break most likely until tomorrow. Hoping to see our Lola too! Speaking of her, we got to chat for a little bit on the phone. We miss her. ❤️

Giants lost again. Oy! ☹️ But I guess the silver lining is that the A’s have a huge advantage with the Astros to try and take the division. Considering the cheating scandal and all. I don’t root for Oakland, but this is an exception.

I’ve gotta get back on track with my TEFL course. There are a few distractions, but I must focus. Keep my eyes on the prize!!! 🤓

I’m planning to finish Sleepless in Seattle tonight. Bill Pullman’s character and his allergies. 😂

I’m doing alright with Animal Crossing. I’m cleaning up since I’ll have a friend over on my island tomorrow. Haha. My new painting is in the museum. Hurrah!

I’m also catching up with a friend on IG. I’m such an empath. I caught her at the right time. Sending her love! 💗

That was my Saturday. I hope y’all had a nice one. Take care.

Good night.

Day 155.

TGIF! So glad it’s the weekend. 🙂

It was so hot today. I think it hit 97 degrees in the city. I enjoy the rare hot day. It can just be overwhelming since a lot of older SF houses aren’t equipped with air conditioning.

I decided to get my walk in anyway despite the weather. All I need is 15-20 minutes.

We finally got my dresser in my room. It took a few days to build, but it looks great! I’ll be smart with how much to store. The drawers are too pretty. I’m planning to do more cleaning, organizing, and get a load of laundry done. So many moving pieces these next few weeks.

We had Shake Shack for dinner. So good! It’s definitely in my top 3. I didn’t get my usual so I went with the ShackBurger with cheese.

Animal Crossing update: I bought a new painting to add to my museum! And the last time I played today it was raining. I’ll play a bit before bed to do some maintenance.

I got some good news from my medical team. I just need to be super cautious and careful once we’re able to head back to work. I need eye protection. My glasses alone won’t be enough. I just want people to keep their distance and mask up. They also recommend surgical masks instead of a cloth one. I can definitely do that.

Giants lost a game they should’ve won. Yikes! I’ll always root for them. 🖤🧡 49ers: Kittle signed a 5 year extension. Wooooo! ❤️💛

Well, I’m pretty exhausted. I hope I can sleep well tonight. I might squeeze in a movie.

Have a great weekend! Take care.

Good night.

Day 154.

Happy Thursday! It’s almost the weekend. Yay. 😊

Yesterday took a lot of energy, but I’m still very proud of myself whatever the outcome of this will be. I’d love to keep talking and getting to know each other. It’s hard to gauge if feelings will be reciprocated. Taking a chance and creating opportunity is a big step!

I woke up at a decent time. The temperature of my room got me up. It was hot out there! 81 in the city. I decided to go for a walk. I needed to just be with my thoughts. I also got to photograph some things in the neighborhood. I found Bill Pullman posted! He’s one of my faves. 💗

I played some Animal Crossing. Nothing too eventful happening on my island. I’m hoping to have my college friend over this weekend! I’m waiting for Redd to return. I want more art.

My dresser will finally be done tonight. I want to put my things away already. There will be a lot of shuffling around. I’m excited for the change!

Going to remain positive. I’m hoping I get the okay from my medical team.🤞🏼 If I don’t, I’ll have to sit out. I trust their decision regardless of what it is.

Well, it’s back to building. Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 153.

I can breathe. I was dealing with a lot of anxiety a few hours ago. I’m okay now. Just a lot going on these last couple of days.

Still processing Amado’s passing. What a beautiful soul! ❤️

Online dating is new for me. I’m making the most of it. I was brave and I put myself out there! So whatever happens, no one really knows.

We are still building my IKEA dresser. Hoping to be finished with it tomorrow.

Got to catch up with friends via text. Always eases me and makes me happy! 💗 They keep me grounded.

Giants lost the series in Houston. Ugh. They’re headed home which is nice! We’ve got a lot to work on. Still cheering for them no matter what. 🖤🧡

Well, it’s back to building. Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.
