Day 111.

I finally took a walk outside and ran errands. We were mindful of our time in one place. It’s best to keep moving. It felt great to be outside again and enjoy the sunshine. We had our masks on and kept our distance. 😷🌤

We supported our local Mexican restaurant for lunch. I had a carne asada burrito. Always so delicious! We missed it. We also bumped into our relatives as we were leaving with our orders.

I had a decent night’s sleep too. That’s always nice. It’s a new month and we’ve got a bunch of goals and tasks to complete. I’ve got two more months to clean my room, buy a dresser, and get a new desk. It’ll all get done. Just gotta stay positive! ❤️ 2020 has been tough, but we can do this.

I took a nap after we watched Robocop. A childhood fave of ours. It’s been a while.

Animal Crossing update: I planted more money trees. Yes! I also paid off part of my loan. And I bought another painting. More art to donate to my museum.

We’re watching Cash Cab now. Such a good show. I gotta practice my uke and take my nighttime meds. Today wiped me out, but it’s a good kind of tired. Hope y’all had a nice Wednesday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 110.

At the beginning of the day all I did was catch up on my shows and movies. I finished Love, Victor. What a great story and cast! I love all the different personalities. The show also talks about important issues like family dynamics and one’s identity. Here’s hoping for season 2! Felix reminds me of a mix of Shawn Mendes and Harry Styles. Gordo from Lizzie McGuire too. He’s in my top 3 fave characters.

I woke up at a decent time, but I was feeling sluggish. Decided to fight through that by watching Us. Jordan Peele is a really good writer. I was intrigued the entire time. I still have some questions, but I’m sure other viewers can give me the answers. Afterwards, I took a nap. I slept for a few hours.

I had lunch as soon as I woke up. Our See’s Candies delivery arrived a day early. Scotchmallow, gummies, and chocolate! 😋 I wish I ordered rum nougat. Next time.

We also watched BlacKkKlansman! What a movie. Great cast as well. Adam Driver. 😍 I enjoy Spike Lee’s films. Definitely overlaps with the current events and political climate. I don’t understand the hatred and anger over someone’s identity. It makes me angry just thinking about it. Folx must do better. 🖤 #BlackLivesMatter

Tried A&W for the first time today. I got the coney dog and a root beer. Might have to do the root beer float next time. It’s refreshing!

Animal Crossing update: loan is almost paid off. The goal is to pay off about 10k bells each day. I’m getting there. Yes! I need to sell or give away clothing. My storage is full. I’ll figure it out. Lol.

Practiced my uke and needed a Stand By Me refresher. I remember it now so I’ll be practicing that some more this week.

Hoping to walk tomorrow. Still quite anxious, but I must face my fears. I’ll wear my mask and keep my distance from people!

That was my Tuesday. I need a good night’s sleep. Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 102.

I had a case of the Mondays. It’s also because I stayed up to watch Volume 3 of Dear White People. ☺️ I’m binge watching. I’ll slow down. I have 7 episodes left.

So I slept in. When I got up I was able to have lunch – leftovers from Wingstop. Afterwards I took care of the dishes. I listened to The Carpenters for a good half hour or so.

Animal Crossing update: I’ve planted a lot of money trees. It’s helping me pay off my loan and putting bells into my savings. I finally got the dandy hat I’ve been looking for. My King Sized Homer look is complete. The Simpsons ftw! 😊

I was feeling tired so I decided to nap. I got up in time to have dinner. We also made brownies to commemorate our brother’s work anniversary and Sal’s adoption day which is technically tomorrow. So cute. Sal is very silly and her personality is precious.

I’ve gotta clean a few more things, play my uke, and exercise before the day is over. That was my Monday. Hope y’all had a good one! Take care.

Good night.

Day 101.

Happy Father’s Day! Love you, Dad. ❤️

My sleep was terrible last night. My anxiety kept me up again. That’s okay though. I watched Dear White People until I fell asleep. Netflix FTW!

I ordered an Animal Crossing pin from a college friend. She’s so talented! I bought the Celeste pin. An ode to Sailor Moon. 🌙

I’m still all up in my feelings. I finally did a round a yoga after a week off. It was tough, but I survived. The stretches and other exercises I usually do afterwards I decided to do in the beginning. I had to change it up. It’ll be a mellow day for me tomorrow.

Animal Crossing update: I almost caught a scorpion today. No luck. I’ll try again tomorrow. I’ve got Christmas decor now thanks to the BFF. Too funny. She time traveled. 😜 Still paying off that loan.

Just practiced my uke. I needed a refresher for Stand By Me. I remember it again.

That was my Sunday. I hope you all had a great day. Here’s to a new week! Take care. 💕

Good night.

Day 99.

Here’s to Juneteenth! I remain in solidarity with our Black brothers and sisters. Black Lives Matter! 🖤

The weekend is here! I’m so excited. It allows me to reenergize and center myself for the new week. My mind has been heavy. I’m at a crossroads in my life and I’m not sure what to do. It makes me sad, tired, and a little angry. I need answers, but I think I must look within. Maybe in a dream?

This time last year I was in Paris. What a beautiful city. I would love to go back! I really don’t know when considering the pandemic. My travel dreams have been halted and I’m okay with it. I just want everyone happy, safe, and healthy.

I took it easy today. I watched TV with the sisters, had brunch, and then I took a nap. My energy has depleted as of late. I did drink 2 kencko smoothies. My next shipment will be shipped in a few days. I feel better about myself since I’m getting fruits and veggies a few times out of the week. I haven’t been exercising since my energy levels are low. 😕 Maybe I can do some yoga this weekend.

Animal Crossing update: I’m revamping everything and trying to sell everything. Must pay off my current loan though. I want my kitchen! 300+ more payments and then I’m free until the next loan. Haha. Oh man.

I’m gonna practice a bit of my uke. And then my usual nightcap is watching Dear White People. I’m on volume 2. Woo! I really like the show. The cast is great. 😊

Well, I hope you all had a nice Friday. Enjoy the weekend. Take care! ❤️

Good night.

Day 91.

I had to take it slow today. I did so much yesterday that I was pretty depleted when I woke up.

Today was my rest day. I love being able to relax. For brunch I had two slices of egg salad with chives on toast. I rave about Kewpie all the time. Not sure if I have on here. Kewpie is so much better than regular mayo. It’s the tanginess. It’s not a lot but it’s there. So good. Check them out if you wanna give them a try. Makes the egg salad experience that much better.

We watched a bit of She’s the Man. One of our fave movies. Amanda Bynes was too good! We also watched Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune. Yay!

I decided to take a nap after that. I had a mini headache. And now I’m awake typing this up. I will continue to blog well into the summer. It’s been nice to just sit and reflect. Most of my days can be repetitive, but that’s alright.

Highlight of my day was talking to our Lola. We miss her so much! She’s been bored at home too. Haha. Hopefully we can visit her soon and we can have lunch with her by the porch while we sit in the car.

Hoping to be more productive tomorrow. I’m happy that it’s almost the weekend. Yay! I did practice my uke and played Animal Crossing. 🙂 Hope you all had a nice one.

Good night.

Day 89.

Watched Two Weeks Notice. Hugh Grant reminded me of his role in Love Actually. Lol. It was an okay movie. I wanted to watch it because of Sandra Bullock. 🙂 She’s one of my favorite actresses.

It’s been an okay day. The days are just moving along. I’m not quite sure what to do with myself these days.

The only productive thing I did was schedule a tech appointment for my echo. I’m due for one. I hope all will be okay.

I’m enjoying my kencko smoothies btw. The fruit ones are really good. I had the yellows one today. It had a hint of cinnamon. Planning to try a new flavor tomorrow.

Played my usual Animal Crossing and uke. Cut some trees down. I don’t know where to group my flowers. I’ll figure that out this week.

We played Trivial Pursuit this evening too. Btw I finally won a round of scene it last night! It was such a good feeling. I was winless for a while. I’m content. 😊

Hope y’all had a nice Tuesday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 88.

Happy Birthday to our dear cousin, Maria! We miss you so much. Maybe that explains my dream yesterday. I was somewhere with family and I saw a picture of her. Until we meet again. ❤️

Mondays are hard. I stayed up to watch Muriel’s Wedding and I slept in. I loved the movie and the music. 😊 My usual routine. But it’s a wake up call this week since more businesses and buildings will be reopening. Part of me is worrying, but the other part is telling me that all will be okay. It’s been so long since I’ve been outside for long periods of time. I will still remain cautious. Social distancing is important! Wearing a mask is too. So please make good choices.

I practiced yoga much earlier than other days. I wanted to take advantage of the sunshine. My kencko order also came in. I drank two packets today. I really like the packet with strawberries. You can put water, milk, or a nondairy alternative. It’s a mix of fruit and veggies. Healthy smoothies! I’ll monitor my progress.

Watched Unsolved Mysteries. The stories were so sad. 😭💔 I enjoy the pleasant episodes.

Played Animal Crossing. I still haven’t cut the trees down on my island. I’ll get to it later this week. Just practiced my uke. It helps to keep my fingers loose and ready each time. Still enjoy playing it. It’s such a cool instrument!

Will be much more productive tomorrow. I hope. I ate fairly well today. I did have a little bit of gummy candy. 🙂

That was my Monday. Take care!

Good night.

Day 87.

I dealt with insomnia so I watched A Walk to Remember. One of my fave movies to watch with Mom and the sisters. I cried so much. 😞😭💔

Stayed up for a bit to play Animal Crossing. I eventually fell asleep. Isabelle says I need to cut some trees down. I’ll do that tomorrow when I have more energy. Speaking of energy, after my nap I decided to close my exercise ring. Got my 30 minutes in! Jammed to The Spice Girls, Jump5, Backstreet Boys, Little Mix, and The Bee Gees. Then I played my uke for my cool down.

Earlier today we watched Forensic Files and Unsolved Mysteries again. It was a good mix of stories.

Hoping to be super productive this week! I really need to tackle my room + keep exercising.

That was my Sunday. Hope y’all had a nice one.

Good night.

Day 86.

I didn’t do much today. I stayed up to watch The Skulls. Haven’t seen the movie since I was a teenager. Joshua Jackson. 😍

I slept in. Had cereal and a nice turkey & ham sandwich for brunch. Decided to wash some dishes. Played a few hours of Animal Crossing. Redid my museum entrance, but I’m not satisfied with it. 😬 Might change it up again. I also set up some time to practice my uke. Can’t forget to practice each day.

Watched Forensic Files and Unsolved Mysteries. The stories were really good tonight. Hung out with the dogs. Had a good dinner. Ben & Jerry’s for dessert. Chocolate chip cookie dough is my fave!

Just woke up from my nap to type this up before midnight. I did alright today. Hope you all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.
