Day 98.

I’ve been feeling quite tired today. I didn’t accomplish much other than paying for a bill. I decided to sleep after I did that. I slept for a few hours. I just don’t have much energy compared to yesterday. Each day is different.

Animal Crossing update: the store has been moved and I just redid the entrance for it. It’s simple, but now I have some use for a lot of the items I’ve left lying around on the island. Yay! There’s progress. I’m new to the franchise, so I’m learning a lot. I enjoy the DIY recipes. 🙂 I’m still looking for the iron garden chair. I hope I find it soon or one of my villagers gives it to me.

I didn’t get a yoga session in. I just feel depleted. 😞 Hoping for a more productive day tomorrow. That all really depends on how I’m feeling. June is flying and I’m trying to do as much as I can on my list of things to accomplish.

Might watch a movie tonight. I’m in the middle of Kiki’s Delivery Service. I must practice my uke too.

I was updated with work stuff. That’s still on my mind a lot for the upcoming year. I’ll think about that another day. Hope you all had a nice Thursday! Take care.

Good night.

Day 95.

Today is the anniversary of my college graduation. Time flies! I’m still so proud of my accomplishments. I may get another degree, but we’ll see. 💙💛

A very Happy Birthday to Dusty Baker and Tim Lincecum! I graduated on a good day. 🙂🖤🧡

It was a busy day for me. I wish I could’ve napped but it wasn’t possible. I hope I get a good night’s sleep.

Animal Crossing update: my home is in a new spot! I’m trying to figure out how to decorate my lawn. I also need to relocate one of the stores on my island. Everything is a work in progress. And one of my villagers is moving out tomorrow. I wonder who will move in next. I hope it’s someone cool!

It’ll be busy for me the next few days. California is reopening, but as I said previously I’m still uneasy about it. I’ve been home since March 13. I’ve only left the house twice. I don’t want to be afraid, but it’s okay to feel like this. I’m still giving myself time to adjust. It’s absolutely necessary.

I’ve gotta practice my uke. I didn’t get to practice yoga today. I’m planning to do that tomorrow.

That’s all from me. I hope you all had a nice Monday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 69.

Happy National Dog Rescue Day! ❤️ Rescue dogs are the best. Our dear Sal, we love you.

Animal Crossing has been consuming a lot of my time. I’m still figuring out what to do throughout my island. I don’t want to overthink it. Takes the fun away.

Happy Birthday, IZ! I was practicing Somewhere Over The Rainbow for a while today. I even recorded audio to listen to what I need to fix. Switching can be challenging, but it’s not impossible. 🌈 I also want to greet my uncle a Happy Birthday! 🙂🇨🇦

I washed dishes, did laundry, and tidied things up. Cleaning is fun. I didn’t even nap. I was a trouper today! 🙂

Lastly, our dog’s liver condition is progressing a bit. So she must take antibiotics on top of what she’s already taking. We’re thinking of including milk thistle with some of her meals. I hope it works. She’s only 3. We’re going to do as much as we can for her. I’m going to stay positive.

We’re going to watch Gordon Ramsey’s 24 Hours To Hell And Back to end the night. It’s a great show!

Hope you all had a good day.

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 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.

Day 50.

Happy May! ❤️

I didn’t do much today. I woke up with a terrible stomachache. 😭 That threw my sleep off. I ended up sleeping in for longer. That explains why I didn’t take any pictures.

I woke up and had a light meal for lunch. Played some Animal Crossing to pass the time. New villagers are moving in! The island is coming together. It’s great. 😊

After lunch, I took a long nap. I really needed it. I slept for a few more hours. I was disoriented since I couldn’t remember what day it was. I can’t believe it’s Friday!

I just finished dinner. Pho and pork egg rolls. I also had half a banh mi.

I’m about to practice my uke. I’ve been practicing later than usual. The fatigue is real.

Hope you all had a nice day. Enjoy your weekend!

Good night.

Day 48.

Forensics Files, food, Animal Crossing, Jeopardy, repeat. That’s what my Wednesday looked like.

I stayed up watching Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist and then I also rewatched Four Weddings and A Funeral the tv series. I’m almost done with that again.

Before bed I just felt sad. Two years ago, my cousin passed away. She was 34. A beautiful spirit. I wish I had spent more time with her. RIP Maria. You are truly missed. ❤️

I’m doing my best to live life to its fullest. Some days are good and then some days are bad. I take both in stride. My own journey has been challenging but I’m still standing. And then I think of my friends who have passed these last few years. I miss them a lot. 💜 I’ll keep going.

I still gotta practice my uke. I’m learning so much information. And I’m still searching for a new desk. I’m overwhelmed with options. Sighhh. Btw random insomnia chats with your BFF at 5am is so much fun. Thanks for the laughs, Jamie! 😂

Hope you all had a good day. Take care!

Good night.

Day 46.

Shelter in place has been extended until 5/31. I mentioned this to Mom yesterday about an extension. I’m psychic! 😎 I knew the announcement was coming. We’ve made it this far. We can do it, California! ❤️

Animal Crossing, uke practice, watching Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, and Forensic Files made up my Monday. Not bad. I’m learning to mix my days up with various shows and games. I just started Never Have I Ever and I LOVE IT! The cast is great. Reminds me of high school which I don’t really miss.

I even got to do some laundry. I’m so frustrated with some of the masks I’ve purchased btw. I washed and dried one today. It fits my face, but the strap doesn’t sit well on my small ears. Ughhh. 😒 I’m thinking of clipping it with my hair clips. That might work.

Anyway, I’m pretty tired. I’ve got a busy day tomorrow so I’m planning to sleep early tonight. Maybe 2am? Haha.

Glad I showered. I’m ready to unwind on Netflix and Hulu. So many shows and movies! Hurrah.

Hope you all had a nice Monday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 45.

Happy Sunday! It’s a new week. 🙂

Animal Crossing is taking over my life. I was gifted a jukebox in the game today. Woo! I’m still trying to collect all the iron nuggets to finish building the shop. It’s taking some time on my part.

We ordered Super Duper for linner. We didn’t get a chance to prepare anything. Our essentials are dwindling so we’ll likely make a quick shopping trip later this week. I honestly believe our shelter in place will be extended here in California and I’m okay with that.

I’m getting frustrated playing games with my family. I haven’t won a game of scene it. We just started trivial pursuit. I’m also winless in that. My chance will come. I’m trying. Sigh.

I gotta practice a bit more on the uke. I’m getting better with the chord changes for Let It Be. G, you will be mastered!!

That was my Sunday. It was decent. Hope y’all had a good day too!

Good night and take care.
