Day 274.

TGIF!!!!! I am screaming. We made it through such a trying week. I’m so proud of my community and my crew. We’ll get through this together. 💗

I had a decent night’s sleep. I did wake up before my alarm. I decided to just play Animal Crossing. It’s legit snowing now!!! I love it. So pretty. I haven’t made a snowman yet. I’m excited!! 😊

More Christmas presents have arrived for family, friends, and colleagues. I love gifting things!

We watched Dateline tonight. It was a good, but very sad report. Sigh. Tough to wrap my head around.

Anyway, it’s raining and it’s calming. I really need this weekend to decompress, reflect, and chill out. We are starting to heal. It’ll take time, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Cases are still surging in California. I’m waiting for my Stoggles. Here’s hoping it actually gets delivered tomorrow!! It was originally supposed to arrive today.

Alright, this is good night. Take care and have a great weekend!!

Day 273.

Happy Thursday! It’s been a heavy and trying week, but I’m getting by. I just need to continue processing. I’m slowly getting to the anger phase. I’m just disappointed, sad, and betrayed. How can you trust again after all of this? 😭💔

There were schedule changes at work. We were supposed to have an assigned classroom, but it turns out that that won’t happen until tomorrow. It was exhausting pushing a cart up San Francisco hills. Whew! I got through it. 😬🙃

We had In-N-Out for dinner! I had a hamburger with grilled onions and animal style fries. So good!!!

Some of my Christmas presents for family have arrived. Woo!!

Animal Crossing update: Speaking of Christmas – the first snow is here! Mango is looking great. I can’t wait until the entire island is covered in snow.

It’s almost the weekend. I’m ready!! Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 272.

I’m blasting Christmas music as I blog. I love it so much! I’m currently playing One I’ve Been Missing by Little Mix. 💗

Today was a pretty good one. My head and heart still hurt, but I’ll get through this rough patch. The series of events are just unfortunate. It makes me upset just thinking about it.

I’m finalizing Christmas presents for family, friends, and colleagues! I love gifting things. It’s been an up & down year, but we’re all making the best of it.

Highlights of my day: Seeing the Christmas lights in Nob Hill. So cool! I had a later break today so it was nice to see and walk around.🎄 And Mom made chicken adobo for dinner!! So good. 😋

Animal Crossing update: Flick is back on my island. I’ll sell him some bugs before bed. I sold some turnips and bought a beanie.

That was my day! I hope y’all had a good one. Take care!!

Good night.

Day 271.

It’s Tuesday!! It was a busy one for me, but all went well. I had my driving lesson before work and then I left early to pick up my new night guard. The fit was perfect! No need to adjust or shave down.

Back to my driving lesson – I still have some things to work on, but I’m making progress! I’m definitely regaining my confidence. I know I’m a safe driver. Hoping to schedule another lesson in January. And then maybe I’ll be good to go on my own in February!! 😁

I bought some greeting cards and snacks at Walgreens. I’m planning to mail out cards this weekend! I just need my holiday stamps. I bought some rubber stamps to add some pizzazz to my handwritten notes and cards.

Gotta take care of scheduling an appointment tomorrow. Thankfully I was able to order my meds first thing this morning. Should arrive on Friday.

Animal Crossing update: Celeste paid Mango a visit! Still no sign of snow. And I’m waiting for the holiday DIYs. Come on!!!

Well, this is good night. Take care!

Day 270.

Happy Monday! My day went well. Dinner was delicious! Korean food is some of the best. 💕

Watched the Niners on MNF. We didn’t win, but we still aren’t eliminated from playoff contention. We’ve got a chance!! Go Niners!!! ❤️💛

Animal Crossing update: Chill day on Mango Island. I’m still waiting for the snow. Where is it?! ❄️

I’m ready for my driving lesson tomorrow. As long as I improve, then I’m totally okay with it! Progress.

It’s been a pretty heavy day so I’ll keep this short.

Good night and take care!

Day 269.

Happy Sunday! It’s a new week and it’s already quite interesting. I’m anticipating news. As of now, I’m on standby.

I wasn’t able to fall asleep. Had terrible insomnia so I watched Emmymade’s videos. Super fun to watch! I slept in and didn’t get up until 1:30pm.

Animal Crossing update: I played early and bought my turnips! 🙂 I’m also buying toys for Christmas and crafted some things for a friend. I just realized I didn’t save a lot of mushrooms. I missed out. Oh well! I’m looking forward to the Christmas and winter DIYs.

I didn’t get to practice driving today. I didn’t get up in time and I was feeling tired. I also got my COVID results. It’s negative! I’m doing my part to keep myself safe as well as others around me. 😷 Shelter in place is now in effect until January 4th. We can do this!!! 🧡

I watched football all afternoon. Brunch was also tasty. We finally got to cook longanisa!!! So good. 😋

I had a pretty interesting dinner. I finally tried the kimchi we bought a few weeks ago. Super tasty! I’ll have to buy it again.

It was a mellow day for me. Glad I was able to take it easy. Hope y’all had a nice one! Take care.

Good night.

Day 268.

Happy Saturday! Really thankful that I was able to sleep in today. I’m feeling a little under the weather. I hope it’s just seasonal. I’ve had tummy issues for most of the day. I made ramen with egg for dinner. I even took a nap.

I washed some dishes. Much needed! I listened to my music to make the time go faster. 🙂

I ordered some Christmas presents. Just some small things for family and friends. I won’t be going all out this year. I’ll be sending things instead. I talked about that yesterday.

Animal Crossing update: My island is doing alright. Nothing too eventful.

I’m just feeling paranoid is all. It’s still a very scary time. California is sheltering in place again. These next few weeks are super important!! Please stay home and don’t gather.

Be safe and take care!

Good night.

Day 267.

California has a stay at home order. I’m all for it! Cases are still surging. It’s terrifying. Stay safe, everyone!! And if you must leave your home, make sure you’re masked up, keeping your distance, and washing your hands.

So happy it’s Friday! I’m hoping to get as much as I can done on my to do list this weekend. The holiday season is different, but it’s here and I’m excited to write and send some small gifts to family & friends. 2020 has kept me on my toes, but I’m making the most of it.

Animal Crossing update: My island is the same. I did buy some new clothes. Hoping to play some more tomorrow.

Watched a wild 20/20 episode!! It was mind blowing, but I had a feeling.

I might buy a few more things online at Sanrio. And Lesportsac wasn’t able to locate my original order from the 2nd Hello Kitty collection. Thankfully, I ordered another item as a just in case.

Health news: I’m hopeful that things will be okay. I just need to follow up with my medical team. Fingers crossed.

I also had a really good session with my therapist. I love venting!

Well, enjoy the weekend! Take care.

Good night.

Day 266.

Happy Thursday! I’m so ready for the weekend. I’m overthinking a lot right now. I just need to chill out. I hope everything will be fine. Ahh!

It was an earlier day since the sister had a dental appt. I played tourist with my aunt. She went back to her old stomping grounds near the Embarcadero. A stroll down memory lane! It was fun. Afterwards, I went to work. It was a pretty good day. Earl gave us our Christmas presents early. I’ll be handing out gifts before Xmas break. Gotta coordinate that soon.

Animal Crossing update: Pashmina was out and about on Mango. I purchased a robot at Nook’s Cranny. It was a pretty eventful day. I’m still waiting for the snow.

I’ve got another busy day tomorrow. I just want it all to go well!! I’m going to recharge and study this weekend. I’ve gotta make progress. I’m also at a crossroads in my life. Must make moves.

I really want a good night’s sleep. Highlight of my day: my purse arrived today!! The first one I ordered never arrived. I don’t think it’ll get to me anytime soon. Kind of a bummer. 😞 I’ll reach out to customer service again.

Well, I hope you’ve all had a nice day! Take care.

Good night.

Day 265.

LOVE.

This day always makes me sad, but very thankful. It’s been eight years since my maternal grandfather (Lolo) passed away. He was a smart, kind, and funny man. I keep you with me every day. I’m sure that you and Lola aren’t too far away. Continue to guide us and to keep us safe during this very interesting time! 💗

We’re halfway into the week and I’m feeling it. But I had a good day! I had a sluggish start tbh. I couldn’t get out of bed until I had an hour left to get ready. 😬 I hate running late, but I made it in time.

I played a game of football, Kahoot!, and badminton with the boys. I’m so tired. 😬😩 But it was a lot of fun. I gotta practice throwing my spiral.

We had Vietnamese food for dinner. I caught Jeopardy for our Lolo. It was his favorite show. We watched Wheel of Fortune and The Masked Singer! I was entertained.

Animal Crossing update: Pashmina has moved in! Snow will be arriving very soon on Mango. Yay!! ❄️

It’s a busy Thursday and Friday for me! Gotta take care of some paperwork too. Hoping to sleep early tonight. I need all the rest I can get.

I hope y’all had a nice day. Take care!

Good night.
