Day 65.

I love Saturdays! I woke up early to play some Animal Crossing. Then I went back to sleep. Played some more AC once I woke up from my nap.

It was a chill day. I got to feel the breeze outside. Missing the old times. We yearn for normalcy, but life will be quite different after this.

I got to talk to Dad before bed btw. So like 2am. It was nice to catch up! I even played a bit of my uke for him.

I must practice in a bit.

Dinner was street tacos and a carnitas burrito. I only ate a quarter of it. Mexican coke is so good! But the sugar content. 😬 No regrets. Haha.

Hope you all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 64.

Today was a rest day for me. I was very fatigued. I also dealt with another bout of anxiety. I really hate that feeling. I’m doing okay now.

I eventually fell asleep, but before I did I played some Animal Crossing. I’m going to attempt to redesign part of my island tomorrow. I’ll start with some paths and more decorations.

Uke practice! Trying to memorize two songs. I want to feel more confident by the end of the month.

Took a nice long nap. I was disoriented and I thought it was already the next day. Sleep deprivation does that to you.

I just played another round of Animal Crossing. I sold a lot of fruit and planted some more trees. Proud of my progress.

Anyway, I’m really glad it’s the weekend again. Lockdown here in the Bay Area could eventually be lifted on 5/31 or it could be extended. Not sure what the status is right now. Either way it won’t be the same. Masks will be the norm.

I’ll watch a documentary or something. Take care everyone!

Good night.

Day 63.

The highlight of my day was visiting our grandma! It’s been weeks since we’ve seen her. I’m glad she’s doing well. ❤️ We said hello to her from a distance. We miss her so much.

We wanted to do some essentials shopping but unfortunately it was too busy. So we’ll save it for another day. We decided on In N Out for lunch. It’s our comfort food. We all had our masks on and ordered from the car. It’s a different world now. It’s difficult to imagine what the future will look like. A day at a time.

Animal Crossing update: I’ve made several improvements on my island. I need permits to really make my island my own. That’ll happen in a few days.

Watched Crazy Rich Asians again. Always a good movie. 😊 Then we watched Wheel of Fortune and Forensic Files.

Just practiced my uke. Yay! Anyway, it was a mellow Thursday. I’m stuffed. We ordered ice cream for dessert. 😬😋 I can’t with junk food these next couple of days.

Hope you’re all well. Take care!

Good night.

Day 62.

Animal Crossing is taking over my life. I’m finally at a 3 star rating for my island. Yay! 😊 I was super happy when I found out. I’m currently waiting for shooting stars. It’s taking a while. Hopefully I see one or a couple.

Practiced my uke. I have to remain consistent even after finishing the 30 day challenge. It’s important to set aside time and that’s what I’ve been doing. Somewhere Over The Rainbow is one of my fave songs. I’m really glad I’m learning it. ❤️

Where is the week going? Time is flying.

I didn’t get to nap so I hope I can get a good night’s sleep. It’ll be a busy day tomorrow since we get to visit family real quick. And maybe a small grocery run.

It was a mellow day for me. A lot of self care and thinking.

Hope you all had a good one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 61.

Sleep deprivation was real. Bro was leaving for work and our dog loves to greet folks in the morning. That meant an early start for Animal Crossing. My island rating hasn’t gone up yet. My goal is hopefully by the end of the week. I ran out of stones to make anything. I used 2 nook mile tickets too. 😬🙃

I had enough energy to watch Little. It was pretty good. I also snacked on sour patch strawberries. My fave!

I took a much needed nap. Fell asleep for 3 hours. I felt a bit refreshed, but groggy. I had Taco Bell waiting for me. It got cold, but that’s fine. Had birthday cake ice cream for dessert. I ate the last of it. I want more!

Practiced my uke for about 20-30 minutes. I’m trying to memorize Somewhere Over The Rainbow by IZ in the next two weeks. It’s such a beautiful rendition. One of my fave songs!

We’re going to end the night watching episodes of The Simpsons. Happy Birthday to you, Homer! 🥰

Hope you all had a nice Tuesday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 60.

Happy Monday! I didn’t do much today. Yesterday required a lot of energy. But it was all worth it! 💕

I’m doing my best to make my island very attractive and inviting on Animal Crossing. So far I’m at two stars. Hoping to be at four by the end of the week. 🙂

I watched The Simpsons and had a hearty lunch with the fam. Most of it was leftovers. We’re craving Indian food for this week. We’ll try a new spot for delivery.

I took a long nap. I felt really groggy and sluggish.

Played some more Animal Crossing. I planted a lot of flowers and trees. I gotta ramp it up. The villagers want K.K. Slider. Haha.

Mom got her Mother’s Day present. Yay! ❤️

And now I’m just gonna chill for the rest of the night. Gotta practice my uke strumming.

Thinking of our friends tonight. RIP Mike. 🤍

Good night and take care!

Day 59.

Happy Mother’s Day! I hope you all had a lovely day. Some of my favorite memories with Mom: stepping on leaves after preschool when we would walk home, sharing a meal together, watching tv or movies, traveling especially to London, Paris, and Vancouver. Thank you for always being supportive and encouraging me when I’m feeling down. I love you! You’re everything. ❤️

And to all the many maternal figures in my life: thank you for raising me into the woman I am today. I always reflect and remember everything that y’all have given me. Sending so much love today – here on earth and in the heavens above. 💕💐

I slept in. I needed it badly. I was able to get my day going after I woke up.

I left the house for the first time in weeks. It felt nice, but also very foreign. Seeing familiar places gave me comfort. We dropped off cookies at our relatives house. It was a short walk. It was great to see everyone even if it was for 10 minutes. Afterwards we went home. Everyone enjoyed the cookies. Yay! We didn’t get to see our other relatives. Maybe soon? I miss them. I got to talk to our grandma real quick on the phone. I wish I could hug her.

We had burgers for lunch. Always the best! Thankful for delivery. And then we ordered ice cream too. Watched a few episodes of The Simpsons. Classic!

I played a little uke today. Still practicing the songs I want to master.

I took a quick nap. Feeling a bit refreshed. Played Animal Crossing for a few hours today. One of my villagers is moving out. 😭 I didn’t know that could happen, but I get it. Farewell, Chevre!

Hoping to turn in early. But we shall see. I need to catch up on some of my shows.

Have a great week! Take care.

Good night.

Day 58.

Sleep was okay. I had an anxiety attack before bed. It made it hard for me to sleep. I had to do some breathing exercises. I eventually fell asleep for a few hours.

I was anxious for the cookie delivery. It was delivered on time. Whew. We’ll figure out how to distribute them tomorrow.

My Animal Crossing house renovation was a success! There’s more room for items and fixtures. Must pay off this current loan to expand once again. I’m making a lot of great progress. AC keeps me on my toes.

Lunch was delicious. Thanks to the sister! She ordered Greek food for us. Always satisfying.

I’m still practicing the uke. After concluding the 30 day challenge, I’ve decided to keep going. I know I need work with chord changes and challenging myself to not look down at the fretboard. I practiced a bit of that this afternoon. I can do about 4 chords. Practice and patience is my motto. Thanks, Dad! I want to get I’m Yours down and Winter Things. Love that song.

I didn’t get to nap today so I’m a little cranky. Hoping to sleep pretty soon. I’m looking forward to seeing some relatives tomorrow even if it’s from a distance. I miss them all so much! ❤️

Hope everyone had a great Saturday. Take good care!

Sweet dreams.

Day 57.

I have completed the 30 day uke challenge! I made it!!! It’s been so much fun learning these last few weeks. Now I plan to brush up on what I’ve learned and memorize songs. It’s bittersweet but the uke has helped me through these tough times. I recorded a bit of my strumming and sent it to our BFF. Affirmation! I just need to be patient with myself and confident. It does wonders. ❤️

I slept okay. I played Animal Crossing first thing in the morning. Priorities. Lol. Paid off my first loan in the game. Onto another one. My house will be bigger tomorrow. Yay for the expansion!

I ordered Mother’s Day gifts. I hope they arrive in time. Fingers crossed.

Played a round of Scene It. Didn’t get the W. I was pretty close. I finished in 2nd. That final clip was something. I will eventually be 1st in due time.

After our game I decided to nap. It was a warm day today so that made me a little tired.

Watched 20/20 tonight and it made me sad. Why are people so cruel? I’ll never understand.

Anyway, I’m looking forward to the weekend. Hope you all had a wonderful Friday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 56.

Decent night’s sleep. I’m slowly improving. I woke up a little early since I was waiting for my brother’s delivery. And I also wanted to play Animal Crossing. I finally have bamboo planted on my island! I knew it’d pay off if I waited to visit an island later in the day. 🤩 Hurrah!

I decided to practice my uke out on our deck today. It was nice to sit there with the sun shining and it was a bit windy. It was peaceful until my sister and I saw a yellowjacket! 😫 We rushed inside.

I practiced enough and decided to tackle some dishes. Best chore ever! 🙂 Listened to Piano Man and a bunch of oldies on repeat while I did that.

I had a late lunch. Tamales! We got them from Costco. Supposedly they aren’t available anymore. Why?!!! I also got to watch some of the news. So many happy stories and then some that are really heartbreaking. 😭💔

Had to nap. I slept for 2.5 hours. The heat makes me tired. It was 69 today I think.

Spam and eggs for dinner. Yay! Played another round of Animal Crossing just now. And I want candy. 😜 I had some chocolate earlier. Cadbury is the best.

We’re about to play Trivial Pursuit. Yeahhh!!! I’m ready.

That was my Thursday. Hope your days went well. Take care!

Good night.
