Life And Things ✨

Enjoy my dorky blog.

Three day weekends were the best decision I have ever made.

The opportunity to have Fridays off (so I would work Monday-Thursday) and have Friday, Saturday and Sunday off, came up at work. I hesitated to take it, but my goodness. Three days feels so GOOD. I feel rested. I did so much. I did my nails, saw friends, grocery shopping, made home made pickles, got a new book, made dinner each day… I made a good choice for myself.

So much better for my mental health to get all the days over with and have the long weekend to myself. ❤️

I took Lucky! Me and my lazy boys. I can’t resist them 😂 His house is beside Nate’s which is perfect.

First villager hunt of spring is complete. ❤️🌺

First villager hunt of the spring!

Boomer sadly left us, but it’s time for a new friend.

No one in particular I’m looking for, so I guess it’ll be whoever stands out to me today! ❤️

Been working on more areas of my island. My museum is currently getting the coffee shop added and I’m excited! I’m adoring the hedges and mushroom lamps.

Nate’s yard is in the works! First time doing elevated neighborhoods and doing the staggered waterfalls. In love with this aesthetic ✨

My main squeeze. He’s been my fave since I started playing in 2020. 💕✨ Nate

I finally started decorating my island. I got this inspiration from a dream island. The bushes surrounding it makes it feel much more closed in and like an actual space. ❤️

Name: Missy

Island: MyTown

Well…. That didn’t last long. I met Rowan and then on my third ticket I found Julian. I CANNOT SAY NO TO MY UNICORN MAN. He is coming to MyTown. ❤️❤️❤️

Going villager hunting today! One of my favorite activities in this game. I found Snake on the first island, but I hate having more than one jock 😅

Mental health update while we are at it;

I lost my kitty Archie on Thursday. It set me back mentally, I’m glad I started medication when I did. I have been consistently taking it which I’m proud of myself for.

Here’s to healing and loving the babies I still have. Lets go find a new villager friend ✨

My return to tumblr falls on the same day I got back on medication for my mental health. It began effecting my life, especially at work and my social life. It’s has hard for me to admit I need help as it makes me feel “broken.” But….

I started not enjoying anything anymore.

I put books down

I didn’t play my favorite games

I didn’t want to watch shows

I didn’t want to go to work

I didn’t want to see friends

Everything made me anxious

I started to feel like didn’t wanna be here

So I will be sharing my mental health journey here. Holding myself accountable and also sharing animal crossing content as I force myself back into something I love.

Take care of yourself. You’re worth it.

With all this overgrowth …. I better find someone good.
