Day 189.

Happy Thursday! 🥰 It’s almost the weekend. It’s been okay for me. Got my workout done – go me!

Progress is being made at work. I might be back in two weeks. Part of me is anxious, but the other part of me wants to get back to my old routine. It’s going to be different, but I’m ready. I must be extra careful as my doctors have advised. Productive convo with the boss. He’s always reassuring.

Giants win! They take the series as the visiting team at home versus Seattle. Just a few more games left and then the postseason. We’ll see what happens. 🖤🧡

Animal Crossing update: Redd was in town. Got a new piece of art to add to my museum. Exciting! Loan is almost paid off. Like seriously! 😄

I’ve got my eye appointments tomorrow morning. I hope it goes well. I haven’t been super diligent with my drops. Eep!

I was pretty productive today. I washed dishes. Hurrah! I’m hoping to do more tomorrow. Clean and study!! That’s the plan.

Lastly, I wish things were different. I miss going out with friends, seeing family, and doing my own thing. Six months into this and it’s been up and down. There are so many emotions and feelings to sort through. 😞😫😭 But I’m doing my best. It’s been nice to chat with someone new – regardless of if it’s something more or not. Maybe we’re both interested? I don’t know. But I feel like 🥴 every time. 😂

I’m hoping to sleep soon. It’s an early day for me. Must practice driving too. Take care!

Good night.

Day 188.

Happy Wednesday! We made it to the middle of the week. 😎

I was feeling quite tired when I woke up, so I took a nap. It turned into 2 more hours of sleep. I felt pretty refreshed. Win!

Animal Crossing update: Things are the same on the island. I’ve saved enough to pay off my loan, but I’m waiting until I get it down to $100k. 🙂

Rare beauty stuff arrived today! I’m digging the lip soufflé and the highlighter. I like my makeup pretty natural and Selena’s line does the job. She’s also a Lupus Warrior! I always support the community. 💜💪🏼💜

I studied today. Made some progress with my class. Planning to read a bit more tonight before bed. I’m pretty productive at night. I’ve always been a night owl!

The Giants were the visiting team tonight. Pretty interesting. Lol. We got the W! 🖤🧡 The win was for the 49ers. ❤️💛 Kruk and Kuip mentioned them during the broadcast. 🥰

My workout was brutal, but I got it done. I wasn’t feeling too motivated. Proud of myself.

That was my Wednesday. Kinda feeling anxious for my call with the boss tomorrow. I’m aware that work will be different. I just need to be overly cautious about my surroundings and the people I interact with. I might be driving to work too. That’s a change! Fingers crossed that all goes well.

We’re still in the first wave. The things I read on social media just upsets me. There’s so much ignorance and selfishness. Absolutely frustrating! So many complaints to go back to “normal”, yet no one wants to listen to science and wear a mask! 😒😞😷 Please do your part. Rant over.

Good night.

Day 185.

Football Sunday! It’s back. ❤️💛 The Niners struggled. It’s only one game. Adjustments will be made. Go Niners! 🙂

And the Giants were swept in SD. 😬 Hoping they pick themselves up. These upcoming games will be a challenge. Go Giants! 🖤🧡

Anxiety has been up and down. Still haven’t replied. 🙃

I slept in. I washed the dishes. Ordered boba. I’m hungry again. Might eat a bit more before bed.

Animal Crossing update: Had to time travel again to buy my turnips. I bought 30 this time around. Hoping to make a nice profit this week. My island is still a mess. 😂

I’m going to play my uke. Eventually respond to this text and tidy up. It’s a new week! I’m feeling pretty good. 💜

Hoping my assignment gets approved for my class. I’ve been waiting to take the test, but it’s still locked. Ugh. I think I mentioned this in yesterday’s entry.

Have a great week, everyone! Take care.

Good night.

Day 183.

TGIF! 🙂 We made it to the weekend. I stayed up watching Julie and the Phantoms. I finished it. So good!! 💗

I always reflect on 9/11. I was a high school freshman. RIP to all the beautiful souls. We remember. I have so much respect for first responders. Thank you. ❤️

The Giants didn’t play today. Someone tested positive for COVID-19 so the game was postponed. I hope our player will be okay. Name wasn’t disclosed. No baseball for us for the next few days. 😢

I’ve been awake for most of the day. I did take a nap after breakfast. I’m in the middle of working on my class assignment. I’m almost done! I just need to type up a paragraph. AQI was very unhealthy today. I hope it improves soon. There’s ash all over our car.

Productive chat with my therapist. She’s always encouraging me! Gotta face things head on. Fear won’t win.

I’ve gotta exercise in a bit. Must get my squats done.

Animal Crossing update: couldn’t find the message in a bottle. What?! This has happened two days in a row. Very odd. My island is doing alright. I’ll tend to it this weekend.

Alright. Time to sweat. Exercising helps me focus. Then I’ll finish my assignment. I can!

Have a great weekend, everyone. Take care!

Good night.

Day 182.

I didn’t do much today. Happy Thursday! I’m glad it’s almost the weekend. I need to recollect myself badly. 🙃

I’m really digging Julie and the Phantoms on Netflix. It dropped today. I’m already in the middle of s1. The cast is great!

I’m about to exercise in a bit. I opened Snapchat earlier today and it was a baseball memory! A year ago today I was at Oracle Park. I miss going to sporting events. I’m a little torn right now with a life decision. Not sure what to do! 😭 I’ll figure it out.

Animal Crossing update: nothing new. Still paying off my loan. Forgot to buy the cool washer at the store. Oh well. Maybe it’ll be back in a few weeks?

Giants lose in SD. Winning streak snapped. Pablo was DFA’d. I’m so sad about that. He’ll always be a Giants legend. Thanks for the memories, Pablo! You did well, kid. 🖤🧡

Btw Saweetie’s recent post on IG and Twitter made me cackle. I was so entertained. 🇵🇭❤️😆!

Time to work! If I’m feeling ambitious, I might study. If not, I can shelve it for tomorrow.

Good night.

Day 181.

Today was a trip. I woke up to an orange sky. It felt like time didn’t even exist. I was in awe. But the reality is – California is burning. Our beautiful state has already burned 2M acres this year. It’s heartbreaking. We must take care of Mother Earth! Climate change is here and it’s real. 😭💔🌎

I was so tired from the night before that I slept through the day. I even missed my appointment with my therapist. Thankfully I rescheduled for this Friday! 😄 But I’m so embarrassed. 🙈 I honestly thought it was tomorrow or next week. I hope she isn’t too pissed.

Animal Crossing update: Redd stopped by and I bought a new piece of art. Hurrah! Still paying off my loan. Almost there!!!

Giants win! We took both games from the streaking Mariners. We’re looking good. I don’t want to expect too much since we’ve got a long stretch of games with potential postseason contenders. A game at a time is my motto. Go Giants!! 🖤🧡

I’m still very much in my feelings and I’m trying to get through this funk. I exercised to get my mind off of things. I’m keeping up with it! 💪🏼

I watched Last Christmas again. It always makes me cry! I think this is my 4th viewing. Henry Golding is so charming. Emilia Clarke is really cool too. I love them together!! 💕

Well, I’m hoping to do more with my time tomorrow. I really need to finish my assignment and test for my class. I’ve been avoiding it. The anxiety is real, but I know I can do this!

Have a great night. Take care!

Day 179.

Happy Labor Day! Thank you to all essential workers during this unprecedented time. ❤️

So the dating scene is scarce. I matched with a mutual friend and that went nowhere. I’m still a little hesitant to continue contact with the guy I guess I’m still keeping in touch with. He’s seeking out marriage. I’m seeking out a relationship. My coworker has told me not to stress about my conversations with him. Do I just reach out again? Sigh. Dating app fatigue is real. I got some pointers from Bumble support, but no luck. I’m going to verify my profile tomorrow. Let’s see if my matches improve.

I went for a walk today to help with some groceries and I needed to clear my head. It was a beautiful day! 🥰

I took a nap once we got back. I couldn’t deal with the warmth at home. I had a cooling blanket. Kinda helped.

Animal Crossing update: so close to paying off my loan! I hope I pay it off this week.

I gotta buckle down and study some more this week. I’m sure I’ll also be provided with a work update. Ah! I’m a little stressed.

Time to take care of trash night. I got my squats done too! ✅ My workout routine is about 15 minutes with my resistance bands.

Still trying to remain positive during this pandemic. I’m up and down. That’s the truth.

Hope y’all had a nice one. Football is pretty much here. Go Niners! ❤️💛 And the Giants beat the Dbacks again. 😎🖤🧡 Back at .500!!!

Good night.

Day 177.

I’m still in this weird state of trying to move on and feeling sad. Maybe I am overthinking, but it’s like if a guy was really interested, he’d do anything to stay present and keep connected. Sighhh. I don’t know. I did match with some new people, so that’s cool. And I can always rely on my friends for advice and affirmation. ❤️

I napped the warm day away. I did have some matcha-vanilla swirl with boba from Matcha Cafe Maiko. One of the best places for dessert! Food makes me happy. 😋

I caught the last half of the Giants game. Welcome back, MadBum! Wish he was still with us, but all the best to him. We got the W! 😎🖤🧡

Animal Crossing update: sold items, found the message in a bottle, and paid off part of my loan. I must remember to buy turnips tomorrow!

I’m going to study a bit more tonight. I have energy to get through one more section. I finished my exercise for the day too. 600 squats done for the week! It’s a rest day for me tomorrow. I’ll clean and continue studying.

I wanted to watch a movie tonight, but I might just save it. We’ll see how I’m feeling.

That was my Saturday. I’m thinking of adding another eyeshadow palette to my collection, but I don’t need it. 😩 Conflicted.

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 176.

Happy Friday!

I’ve been in a weird headspace. Maybe I’m expecting too much? I’m kinda in a funk again, but I’m still getting work done. I just overthink about everything. Sighhh.

I’m making progress with my class. Every second counts. Yes! And I got my squats and exercise in too. 💪🏼

Giants lost tonight. There’s always tomorrow. Go Giants! 🖤🧡

Animal Crossing update: I sold a bunch of things and paid off a good chunk of my home loan. Kicks was in town too.

Music is helping me, but yeah. I’m still thinking about a lot. This pandemic is taking a toll on me mentally, but I’m fighting it. Putting that out into the universe. I’ll be stronger because of this. I’m just frustrated and disappointed. 😢

I need my sleep and I’ll be doing a lot this holiday weekend. I’m ready!

Have a great weekend, everyone! Take care.

Good night.

Day 175.

Happy Thursday! Happy Friday Eve. 🙂

I really love lox and cream cheese bagels. The only fish I’m allowed to have because of my food allergies. Salmon’s the best! If I could have another bagel, I would. Lol.

Just woke up from my nap. I’m going to work on some stuff before bed tonight. Glad I finished my workout earlier today. And I’m thinking of splitting my 100 squats into 4. Instead of doing it all at once. It’s more manageable that way. 💪🏼 I’m staying consistent. I’m inspired since I can fit into a pair of jeans I bought last year. Makes me happy!

Animal Crossing update: I did the usual tasks on my island. Leif is visiting today. I got some new recipes too!

I just miss traveling. That hit me today since I saw my suitcase. Some clothes from my London tour were still in there. Sigh. Whenever it’s safe again, I’ll explore. Until then, I’ll just look back on the memories.

Giants were off today. They open a 4 game series with Arizona at home tomorrow. Go Giants! 🖤🧡

It’s time to get to work. Take care!

Good night.
