A baby woodpecker just goofing around in my garden as if it was a playground

This time, watching The Orphan Brother (1961). Going in I was not expecting such a story. And I wasn't expecting to cry but I definitely did! What a beautiful film. <3
|
Really really REALLY EXCITED on seeing the teaser for John Wick Chapter 4! SO GOOD!
|
My husband has a laminator (sp?) at his work. He showed me what he printed and laminated for us for our new apartment. He printed movie covers for behind the TV and Pokemon and Ludo pictures for my PC area. He just shown me the pictures he got from his phone of us and family to put up as well. ♡
|
Honestly just nice people!
Also discovering a band (I kind of knew them but not properly so ty Inky) whose back catalogue I intend to dig though properly 🎵 |
Bacon sarnies - not gunna lie having them on the morning just before a big trip out kinda hits different
|
Seeing my partner finally buy and set-up a bed frame after years of sleeping on the floor. Finally she no longer needs to squat every time she wants to lie down + unlocked extra storage space underneath her bed~
|
My dentist saying I've got good teeth. :D
|
Thinking about getting our budget back on track. Still debt free but after getting out of our converted van into an expensive apartment - it has put my budgeting brain in a swirl but now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! And get ourselves back on track! Budgeting makes me happy 😆

This:
|
Big plate of pasta with creamy salmon sauce 😊
|
My aunt's out of town, meaning I have the entire house all to myself for a couple days <3
|
Some awesome news from a friend! I'm so happy for them <3
|
Pitch Meeting videos by Screenrant! Honestly recommend them so much to everyone if they wanna have a good laugh!
|
Playing Jackbox with friends!
|
Fate/Grand Order finally released in the UK today! I can't be bothered to try and jailbreak my iPad, and I sure as hell don't want to play it on my laptop through an independent client, so I've never had the opportunity to try it. Even if I end up disliking it - and I probably will, because mobile games and I don't get along, and I have a particular distaste for gacha - it's nice that I've finally got the chance to experience it for myself.
|
Improvements with digestion.
I was able to finish my entire plate at a restaurant without any pain or issue. |
The fact I'll potentially start building the circuit for my PIU pad today after a hiccup with the wire gauge/size, and that my last purchase wasn't a complete waste. I used the spare wire to make some connection test runs that worked, and even found a way to use the oversized heat shrink tubes!
Also, Paldean Wooper and the new buff dude from the trailer whose name we don't know but whom I believe will certainly be in my mind a lot if I get SV. |
P A L D E A N W O O P E R Y E S S S S
What an absolute treasure, had me beaming the minute I saw it. Oh also having a half day for work today was nice. |
My students' reactions when they received their gifts! Seeing them take photos and smiling just made me so happy :')
|
I had a nice communication with a YouTuber. I was doing some geography research, and found some helpful information in one of his videos. I left a comment with a question, and he replied, and helped me out.
|
Two people told me that I did a good job on my (failed attempt) to draw Arceus. The head came out really good, though.
|
Accidentally accessing PokeCommunity in Incognito mode on Chrome and seeing the Johto Elite Four... or rather, just Koga.
I changed my theme back to that immediately after. |
Delicious white fruity tea and Lindt chocolate. Am happi.
|
Today is the 3.5 year anniversary for my partner and I. 😊
|
Happy and grateful for the new profile a friendly favourite Sylveon friend of mine made for me!
|
Konami's newly announced Photon support for the YuGiOh OCG
|
Digging through some storage boxes at my parents and finding most if not all of my Pokemon TCG collection from back when I was a kid.
The organization is a mess though.... lmfao I'll dig through it properly some other time, I only had a quick glance. What I also found was a binder with Pokemon Flippo's with the Lays brand in it as well as some Pokemon coin collection. I don't remember either, but according to the info in the flippo binder it was from my 6th year in elementary school =O |
I looked up this morning and a Gardevoir had teleported into the Trivia section, taking her rightful place on staff with us :)
|
The customer service agent who stuck with me over 4 hours.
I am awfully sick and I know I wasn't offering the greatest communication, but he managed to fix every issue I had. |
Being invited to join the moderators of Trivia section!

I thought it was a small computer issue, turns out I had an entire corrupted hard drive. He managed to fix the entire issue saving me from needing my warranty. Hopefully I will find a place to put in a good word for his service. |
The very real possibility to tick another big item off my bucket list. I've done everything I can, so I just need some luck now🤞
|
A friend online told me that she was able to come out of the closet to friends offline, and was met with such love and acceptance. It did my heart good to hear her story, and also see a delightful self-portrait that she made.
|
I wrote a review of a rhythm game on another forum, and after I finished I went to play it, and got an all perfect on one of my favorite songs in the game!!
|
I got to playtest my modded PIU pad today after a month of work! It didn't work perfectly and it might need another round of improvements, but I still had fun. It's good enough to keep like this for some more time before I go back to the drawing table.
|
Finding out that I might get some student loan debt forgiveness.
|
Finding new songs!
|
Watching The Batman in the plane :O
Spoiler:
|
just saw a hummingbird!
|
September final exam boards got cancelled/postponed until November in my school. Even though I'm slightly miffed because I wanted to get the Linguistics final off my shoulders as soon as possible, I'm also relieved because I can review at a much less hectic pace and get other stuff done in the meanwhile.
|
I got paid today. People also went crazy over the brownies I baked and shared at work. I heard every compliment from "delicious" to "Mmmmmmmmmm,hmmm,mmmmm" and 'these are the best brownies I have ever had!"
Another thing that made me smile is petting my silly cat, and talking to my big sweet dog. |
I got a lovely compliment from someone yesterday and I remembered it this morning 😊
|
The support from my friends ♡
|
Still on such a happy rush from my day out with friends and family at a medieval festival, everyone there was super friendly and these memories will keep me warm for the rest of my life, I'll treasure them! <3
|
My little succulent plant has been droopy for a few weeks, but now it looks like she's standing up again! (I accidentally killed my previous succulent, so I'm trying to take better care of this one)
|
Got a check in the mail for a few hundred dollars out of a class action lawsuit, and cashed it. I also got some early birthday gifts from friends since I wouldn't be in town during the weekend for the day itself. I haven't opened the boxes yet. I am going to be patient and wait until Sunday. I love the pretty cupcake-shaped box that one of the presents came in, so cute!
|
I received my skates and got the very basics down! If you know me you'll know how important this is (sorry for all the times I bothered you about skating btw) ♥
|
I knew a user on a previous forum who was making gaming content on YouTube as a hobby. That forum is shutdown, however upon checking up on his YouTube channel I can see he is now verified with millions of views on some of his videos. His subscriber count is over 250K.
I am so proud. |
Some unexpected poetry success and also being able to see a view I haven't seen in quite some time!
|
It was positive vibes and good music all around my job today :)
|
The news that NASA are pretty confident the first SLS launch in the Artemis program will actually go ahead today! Fingers crossed and can't wait!!!
|
More skating but this time, with one of my best friends and at a rink! I'm still trying to process this but saying it made me happy is more of an understatement, you know? ♥
|
Applied for remote work at a local English institute. I doubt I'll get hired because I don't have my degree yet, but the fact I at least tried to get a job out of the usual in-person classroom environment feels great.
EDIT: I got a reply from the staff to go meet them for an interview on Thursday! I'm trying to keep my expectations low but at the same time it's hard not to get absolutely HYPED!!! |
My dog just being her wonderful self :)
|
I managed to go 12-2 tonight when battling in Doubles against other players. That made me smile.
|
I watched a Youtube video where someone cosplayed as my favorite character from a video game. That enough made me happy. I had to go to class right after, and I was listening to music on the way there. Some good bops came on, which made me even happier. Then later today, a favorite Youtuber of mine posted a new video (she had a baby recently so she hasn't been uploading but she's back!)
Today was a good day. I was a very happy camper. |
My tutor asking me if she can use part of my essay to demonstrate a good example to students, which makes me happy because I've utterly exhausted every ounce of energy getting these assignments in between other deadlines! Glad it's payed off!
|
Getting to learn more about what I will do next month for my job, and liking it!
|
Today I finally submitted all the documents I needed to have my mom's surname legally added. That, in turn, means I'll actually see both surnames in my college diploma. In just 20 days I'll get my new birth certificate and entry, and I'll be able to get a new ID among other things.
20 days!! I couldn't be happier!! |
I went to a first club meeting and we played trivia, and my team thought we got a bunch wrong. Turns out we won!! We each got little baggies with FUZZY SOCKS, candy, and little containers of play doh!! :)
|
Wonderful peeps checking up on me <3
|
I got the official all-clear on my broken leg after four or so years! I still have to go for yearly checks with my traumatologist, but it's all healed. There's no damage to the IM nail from playing PIU either, which means I can keep doing it as my main form of exercise!
Also, my local book fair will take place a month and a half earlier than it usually does, starting on October 1st instead of the second week of November. That means I'll be able to zoom in while I get all my papers in order and get some more books in English! |

Clips of the Loona concert in London 2 days ago. So glad I went.

Getting a shiny Suicune in Crystal in the wee hours of the morning.
|
Went on a walk with my dog, and he walked a good distance, all the way to a local church parking lot from my house. Because he's an older boy, 10 years, and a big breed, every step he takes makes me proud and happy that he's here.
He's a little slow to rise to his feet sometimes, but I have learned if I sing a song then he gets excited and will jump up and start walking. |
Spoiler:
View from the top of a Ferris Wheel. Not a huge picture but hey Slightly uneasy with heights. But I'm glad I did it. |
Watching/hearing an old video of Natalie Dessay singing Olympia the doll from The Tales of Hoffmann at La Scala. It sent me to a magical realm. I miss her opera singing so much.
|
FINALLY got my tax return after waiting months and months, so now I got a nice chunk of change in my wallet and can buy some new clothes that I desperately need...
|
Finally getting the chance to battle the user Amore here, even though he beat me every time. lol Getting on Pokémon Showdown and consistently destroying the meta VGC with a fun team of my favorites. ☺️

Redeeming the Mystery Gift codes for these three:
Spoiler:
Completely forgot about this event... the nearest store that participated only had a couple left xD First time redeeming any of these three mythicals myself =D I did already have these mythicals... it's just more special when you redeem/claim them yourself. |
Half a decade on this forum. I'm bad at sticking with things, but at-least on this rare occasion I picked a nice place to stick with.
But wow, time does go fast. |
That it's FRIDAY!!
|
There's this game that I play and they released 2 new animated trailers today- one about an upcoming event and the other about the next chapter in the main story line. So excited!! We got blessed with such pretty anime men!
|
I got heavily complimented by a boss and then got a second collaboration at a Venezuelan radio, and the hosts also complimented me on my knowledge of UK politics.
|
I'm slowly making progress in getting all A ranks in a Sonic game.

Mimikyu in the latest ScaVio trailer!! 💖 Now I have a real reason to get this game!

Beautiful autumn leaves dancing their way to the ground

my neighbor's dog who tries to catch a cat and bumps in the fens.
|
I'm home with my loved ones. That matters most now.
|
Apparently my random shiny Sinestea is authentic form and I legitimately did not know until I tried to evolve it with the cracked pot
|
The fact that, as of this post, I have 1,000 posts! I've come a long way!
|
The fact that a new interview is ready for review for Daily!
And that TWO more interviews are getting close too! |
I just found a Shiny Mareep in Xenoverse while looking for a Sparkowl with Motor Drive! The best thing is, I might have manifested his appearance because I thought, "I'm gonna find a pink sheep before I find that dumb bird." Lo and behold, his name is Cloud. Bye-bye Sparkowl line, I'm gonna use Ampharos for the third time in this game. :D
Bonus points: I named the MC after the game's edgelord rival Trey, as a test run for my fic. Now I can't stop imagining said edgelord rival with a pink Ampharos. |
I was told that I was doing a great job at work today
|
Cake.
It’s not peanut butter cake, but this vanilla confetti cake is the bomb. |
Looking at dogs on the local animal shelter's website. I love them all so much!
|
Shitposting around the globe
|
Was feeling low earlier today.
Stopped for a moment and thought about all the wonderful friends on this forum. Just, things like that make me realize that I am loved. :') |
Waking up an hour past the time I am usually woken up. I haven’t felt this well rested in a while.
Woke up smiling and happy as a result. |
seeing my partner after a particularly rough few days
|
Currently on vacation. Happy and needing the change of scenery.

My temperature is staying in the 37s
