Day 209.

It’s Wednesday! We’ve made it to the middle of the week. 💗

Today was our Tito Rino’s funeral. I wish I could’ve been there, but it’s still too risky. I said a prayer for him. He’s truly missed. 🤍 Family over everything. It’s important to keep in touch with everyone on the regular especially during the pandemic and once life normalizes again.

I had to get up early to watch the dogs. They’re such a handful. Rascals! I had coffee and snacks to keep me going for a few hours. I played Animal Crossing to pass the time. Tex is moving in. Kinda wish I would’ve found my own villager, but that’s fine. I know for next time to seek a new one out ASAP.

I was able to clean, apply Vaseline, and put a new bandage on my skin – the one near my eye and the one near my armpit. Must take care of it daily.

Did a load of laundry after my shower. I was so productive today! Planning to clean tomorrow.

Caught part of the VP debate. I didn’t watch all of it. Progress needs to be made again in our country. Protect womyn and their rights! Protect those with underlying conditions! Let’s have a conversation about racial & social justice, climate change, global warming, and the importance of science. We need strong leaders! BIDEN HARRIS 2020! 💙

Watched Postseason baseball. Disappointed that the Padres didn’t tie the series versus LA. 😒 They gotta win the next one to stay afloat in the series. I hope they do. BEAT LA!!!! 🖤🧡

Still dealing with anxiety and being sad. I’ll make it! I know I will. My feelings are valid. Suppressing them won’t help me. Acceptance. Still staying away from a certain dating app. Once I’m brave again – I’ll return.

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 208.

Happy Tuesday! 💕

It was a day for me. I didn’t sleep very well because I was dealing with anxiety. I always get pretty anxious for my doctor’s appointments. This one was a bit different since it’s the dermatologist! I rarely go.

Fast forward to 9:45am. We were running a bit late, but I got there in time. Thankful that my aunt can provide me with rides. Anyway, I arrive and there are a few people ahead of me. Once I check in, the receptionist leads me to the back room. This is where the magic happens!

I’ve dealt with skin tags for the last few years. Both were removed today! Huzzah!!! I hope my insurance processes it because 1. They were painful and 2. absolutely necessary for my own well-being since one of them was close to my left eye. I’m wearing a bandage there right now. I’m unable to get it wet for the next 24 hours. I must clean and dry it for the next 2-3 weeks! The doctors were really nice too. Thanks for your help.

Once I got home, I took a very long nap. The lidocaine wore off and I could feel the sting. I didn’t get up until 5ish in the afternoon.

I ate my lunch and then I tuned in online for the livestream of my uncle’s services. His passing was untimely. Makes me sad. Given that we’re still in the middle of the pandemic, I’m unable to attend his funeral. I’ve been praying for him. RIP Tito Rino. 🤍

Had In-N-Out for dinner. Decided to wash the dishes too since I wasn’t super productive today. I plan on studying tomorrow and finally get to my laundry.

I’m still dealing with my emotions and feelings. It’s a rough patch. Ugh! But I’ll make it. I’m strong!! 💜

Lastly, my Animal Crossing update. Must look for a new villager. Al has left my island. More Halloween decor is going up this week! Yeah!!

Take care, everyone!

Good night.

Day 207.

Happy Monday!

Today is always a heavy day. 2011 was such a sad year. I still grieve. I wish I had more time with our Lola. I can’t believe it’s been 9 years since her passing. We miss you and we love you. ❤️

My time off is winding down. I need to get back to routine! And I’ll be driving this time around. I’ve gotta practice and always remain confident. I know I can!!!!

Animal Crossing update: Al is finally moving out! He’s been on my island since April. Happy trails to him! I’m excited to see which new villager will be moving in. I got more DIY recipes for Halloween. All my pumpkins have grown! Ready to decorate some more for Halloween. 👻

I’ve got my dermatology appointment tomorrow. I hope something can be done about my skin tags. Freeze them and then snip it off please!! I’m so self-conscious. 🥴

Watched the ALDS. Rooting for Oakland. They’re the only Bay Area reps left. Boo Houston! 😒 And I’m cheering hard for SD!!

I’m hoping to sleep soon. I was supposed to do my laundry, but I can save it for tomorrow. It’s getting colder in the city. I miss the summer!

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 206.

Happy Sunday! A new week is upon us. 🙂

My day was okay. I watched a lot of sports – football and the NBA Finals. Niners are 0-2 at home. We lost to the Eagles. WTH?!! Very happy for Miami. They’re trailing 2-1, but Jimmy Butler went off. I hope the next game is just as exciting.

Animal Crossing update: I slept in so I had to time travel to get turnips again. Today is also Goose’s Birthday! Good times.

Hoping for a better week. I know I’ve been saying I hope to be productive. And I will be! I must discipline myself.

Highlight of the day: Happy Lemon. This’ll be the last of my boba fix until the end of the year. I’ve ordered too much too often. 🍋

I’m super excited to see dermatology this Tuesday. I hope they can help me out ASAP!

Well, this is good night. Take care!

Day 205.

Happy Saturday! We’re a month away from Election Day!! Please vote. 🇺🇸

I stayed up watching Emily in Paris. I’m obsessed!! Reminds me so much of Sex and the City. I miss Paris! I love hearing the music throughout the show and the cast is great. Gabriel 😍😘🥰

I took a quick nap and then I preordered a new lipstick from Lisa Eldridge’s collection. It’s called blush and it’s so pretty. I tried on the velvet jazz color. Such a nice red! I’m in love. The texture is smooth and comfortable to wear. I don’t know how she does it. I approve!

Animal Crossing update: My pumpkins are still growing. Hoping to get more DIY recipes from my villagers. I love Halloween! So much black and orange. It’s great.

I napped this afternoon. It was a nice three hours. Naps are my fave. 😴

I’m supposed to practice driving tomorrow. Let’s see if I can get up. I get so lazy on Sunday, but this is important. My anxiety is real at the moment. Haven’t driven in a while.

Might finish Emily in Paris tonight. I’ve got three episodes left. I’m so good at binge watching!!

Hope y’all had a nice day. Take care!

Good night.

Day 204.

Where did the week go?! Happy Friday! 💜

I tried to sleep early last night and it didn’t work out for me since I decided to watch Ready or Not. I really liked it. Plot twists everywhere! Definitely a guessing game.

I woke up in time, but it was hard. I had to get ready for my flu shot appointment. I get it every year. Super important for my health! It was quite busy, but the wait wasn’t long. Afterwards, we picked up lunch at our local taqueria. I went with a carne asada burrito. It’s been a while. 😋 Chips and salsa were so good too.

I did a bit of chores and then I decided to take a nap. I was super tired. Fell asleep for a few hours. I’m pretty energetic now. Might watch another movie tonight.

Animal Crossing update: Vivian is finally moved in! Super exciting. I watered my pumpkins. I also caught another scorpion. My count is 2! They’re so sneaky.

I want to try on some makeup. It’s the only time to freely wear it at home. I love lipstick, eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, and highlight! 💕 No one will ever see my lipstick again until we’re mask free. 😷

Planning to clean and organize tomorrow. I hope to practice driving for a bit this weekend. I go back to work in TWO WEEKS! I’m a little anxious, but I think I’ll be okay. Super important to be socially distant from everyone, especially adults. I’m double masking and putting on the face shield.

We watched a bit of Meet the Parents. Haven’t seen it in a while. I forgot how funny it was. Hehe.

Take care and happy weekend to all!

Good night.

Day 203.

I dealt with a lot of pain today. I was sleepy and fatigued for most of my day. I’m boring. 😂

Good news: I got my sunnies face the perfector stick! I can’t wait to try it. Maybe tomorrow? You can blur your skin and add balm. The dewy look.

Animal Crossing update: It’s October! Spooky season is here. I have a mini pumpkin patch on my island. Hopefully the pumpkins grow in a few days. Can’t wait to decorate everything orange and black. 🎃 Bud is gone and Vivian moves in tomorrow.

I watched postseason baseball today. I caught the A’s and the Padres. Everyone except our rivals. Go teams! 😎

I had a very productive session with my therapist today. I was almost on the verge of tears, but I stopped myself. I am valid. I am worthy. I will not dwell on the past. I tried. Now it’s time to move on. 💪🏼 I can!

Today is also the start of Lupus Awareness Month! Sarah used to always spread visibility and awareness. We’ll continue the story. We miss her so much. 💜

I’ve got my flu shot appointment tomorrow. I’m so ready! The AQI is getting bad again. I hope it won’t take long. I’ll walk fast.

That was my Thursday. Hoping to do more this upcoming weekend! Take care, y’all.

Good night.

Day 202.

I’ve dealt with a lot of pain and discomfort today. I did my best to have a good day. 🙂

It’s been 7 months since my last dental visit. It was so nice to see my student dentist and catch up. Overall, my teeth are looking much better! I had to deal with the probing part this afternoon. It hurt, but I got through it. My cleaning was also done manually. All the other tools must be cleared by COVID-19 protocol. A lot has changed, but I’m adapting! After my appointment, I decided to treat myself to another PSL. 🎃

I’ve just been listening to the same music for the last week. It’s been a week since my heart was broken. I’m still healing and giving myself the time to process. 😭💔 I was on Bumble for a bit before I went to sleep last night and I had to deactivate my profile again. I’m still hurting. 😔

Animal Crossing update: My new art piece is now in my museum. Label was in town. Bud is moving out and Vivian is moving in. It’s spooky season starting tomorrow. I’m excited for all the orange!!

Postseason baseball wasn’t the best today. The Twins were eliminated. 😞 I still have a bunch of other teams to root for. BEAT LA!!!! 🖤🧡

I just feel like crap today. I’m hoping I feel better tomorrow. 💜

Take care, y’all! Farewell to you, September.

Good night.

Day 200.

Case of the Mondays. I stayed up watching the Chadwick Boseman special on Disney+. And then I watched Another Cinderella Story. I love Selena Gomez! And then this afternoon my sister and I watched Selena. We love that movie so much. ❤️

I’ve been pretty sluggish today. I just finished my workout! 💪🏼 Smashing my goals. I’m still sad, but I’m slowly moving on. It’s only been a week.

Animal Crossing update: Nothing too eventful on my island. I’m waiting for the Halloween update!! 🎃

So much baseball and basketball this week. I’m excited! I love sports. It’s also a busy week for me. Dental appointment on Wednesday, call with my boss on Thursday, and my flu shot on Friday. Woo!

Thinking of all the folx up North. Fires are raging again here in Northern California. Stay safe!! 💗

Planning to drive this week. I must practice. That’s the only way I’ll get better. I have some anxiety, but I’ll be okay. I know I can do this!

It was a very warm day in the city – 90 degrees! Should be cooler tomorrow. We bought Cafe Maiko again. I can’t resist the matcha swirl sundae with boba. 😋

Flowers by DJ Spoony feat. Sugababes is really good. The original is by Sweet Female Attitude. 🇬🇧 artists are amazing!!

That was my Monday. Hoping to do more tomorrow. Take care!

Good night.

Day 199.

Happy Sunday! 🙂

The Niners get the W again in New York!! Yay!!! As for the Giants, no postseason for us. The umpire was terrible. Our final strike definitely wasn’t a strike. They fought all season. Proud of them! Looking forward to 2021. 🖤🧡

Car shopping was a trip. We ended up with a really good deal. Now’s my chance to drive and drive often. Getting anxiety about work, but I gotta earn that check. I’m sure I’ll be okay.

It was a warm day in the Bay Area. Same weather again tomorrow. I didn’t get to study, but I plan to be productive this upcoming week. No more distractions! 😎

I’ve been listening to the same songs and playlists. I’m almost out of this funk. I don’t want to stay here, but I must trust the process. It still sucks, no lie. Heartbreak is painful. But I’ll make it! 💜

Animal Crossing update: had to time travel to buy turnips. Tried to get a new villager to move in, but their games were too much. Bye Kitty! 😂

Hoping to sleep early tonight. Might watch a movie.

Take care everyone. Have a great week!

Good night.
