I am so excited.

I am so excited.  Last night I worked on my desktop PC that had been running slow and had wayyy too much junk on it.  I've had it since 2012 and it's running Windows 7 (by my choice - I blocked the upgrade to Windows 10... for reasons).  It's still a good computer but for the last two/three years it was easier to just use my tablet for school.  But now that my summer class is coming up and it's going to be fully online I need to use my tablet for my ebook while still being able to connect online and watch class.  So... it was a good time to go ahead and get it running better.  I did and I feel accomplished!

ON TOP OF THAT I found my .psd resume file.  I thought I'd lost it and would have to start ALL THE WAY OVER on my favorite resume, but I don't.  That is a HUGE deal because I worked for literal hours perfecting it.

On a similar note:  I've also got most of the files that I'm not immediately using put on my external hard drive.  I feel so much more organized than I have in a long time.  I deleted a bunch of duplicate files, sorted things, and have even considered scanning in some stuff from my filing cabinet and going more or less paperless when it comes to documents of which I need to have a copy.  I don't know.  That's probably a bigger task for another day, but I can certainly add it to my to-do list!

Anyway, I'm feeling pretty good so far today.  I have my bedroom and PC nice and tidy and ready for school / work when the times comes.  My brain feels so chill when things are in order.  Yay!  😁

My claws are SHARP.

My claws are SHARP. While changing into my pajamas just now I literally sliced my nip-nop to the point that it's bleeding. I'm definitely repainting these bad boys tomorrow to dull them. Gotta cap those edges!

Ouch! 😬😬😬

Shaun made a pizza.

Shaun made a pizza.  He normally puts spices on it and it's good, but when we cleaned the kitchen the other day he moved the spices into new containers.  He wasn't ready for the way they pour out.  Let's just say, um... I choked out.  I wasn't ready.  😂😂😂  It was good, though!

I watered this many plants today.

I watered this many plants today. I just finished and I know I started by 8 this morning. I'm tired!

I bottom-water all of the pots (meaning that I move them to a tub of water, then move them to a rack to drip dry, then put them back on the shelves) and I refill all of the jars by hand with a squeeze bottle. It's kind of a lot. Thankfully, I got most of them today. There are a few stragglers left that I'll get within the next few days. Hopefully. 😂😂😂

Once again I'm awake at 7-something in the morning.

Once again I'm awake at 7-something in the morning. But this time I slept last night! I'm so excited! Still a bit drowsy, but I'm getting up because my plants are thirsty.

GOOD MORNING!

🌞😁🌞

Even though I didn't sleep until after 8 this morning...

Even though I didn't sleep until after 8 this morning I did finally get some rest.  After that I decided to get moving or I knew I'd be glued to the couch the rest of the day.

I did my chores right away so all of the animals were cleaned and fed.  After that Shaun and I cleaned and rearranged the kitchen a bit.  It's nothing huge, but it looks nicer and we have more counter space.  We also installed an under-cabinet light and that definitely brightens things up.

I also emptied my fish tank.  I haven't had a fish since Salamander died a few months back, but my Marimo still lived there.  The tank had gotten pretty overrun with algae and didn't look very nice, but my Marimo are good.  I cleaned them and have them in a small tub of water.  The cats keep drinking out of them.  I guess they make it taste good.  😆  I'm looking for a 5 gallon tank to put them in if anyone has one available.  I have larger and smaller ones, but a 5 is the Goldilocks size I'd like to use right now.  I'm up for trading or buying for cheap if anyone is interested.  Please let me know!

Other than that we saw the kids today.  Kira made a delicious Tres Leches and we hung out and I painted her nails.  I also photographed my nails that I did the other day.  Maybe I'll post them.  They aren't mind-blowing nail art, but I love the shape and think they are decent - considering how long it's been since I've done anything to them.

I hope you all are doing well.  ❤

Lemme brag.

Lemme brag. Kira has been making desserts since the quarantine started. She's done a great job, but today she KILLED IT with some Tres Leches. Shadow rarely eats sweets and had 2 pieces. We all did! It was SO GOOD! 🤤🤤🤤
