What did you do today?

[Sakura]

I had classes which took up most of my afternoon and after that I felt a little exhausted so I took a long nap ~ I tried to work on some icons for people but I didn't get to finish because I started watching a TV show with @Sasuke on Discord called "From". It's a really good show and I'm already addicted to it and want to find out what happens next lol We were going to watch a third ep but he really needed to go to bed and I needed to go eat something /sad Oh well there's always tomorrow.

Haha happen with my two brothers when we were excited to watch episode my second is always the one who sleep early we will waiting for him to watch it on the next day.

I went out briefly to bring the recycling boxes in once they'd been emptied and refilled the bird feeder. I stayed indoors for the rest of the day, too cold out.

Freezing out here too didn't go anywhere outside of the house just did work in the warmth of my office room here at home. Snowed earlier this morning and now it is snowing again. Having hot cocoa with Sakura and talking. 

[Sakura]

Finished up some GFX that I was collabing with my sister and had classes. Watching several episodes of this TV show "From" now.

Can relate lol I've been excited to watch more of this show I'm watching all day.

Went out Christmas shopping this evening. We bought all the lights and decorations, wrapping paper, bows. Then I had to haul it all up in here in the elevator lol We also went out to eat at Waffle House, it had been awhile since we had been there. 

[Sakura]

Went grocery shopping which mostly turned into a trip to Walmart where we could just get everything we needed in 1 go because I needed some wrapping paper, ornament hooks, and a few other decorations for the house for Christmas. I don't know if I'll do some Christmas decorating this weekend or next weekend, all depends on how I feel. 

[Animedragon]

I didn't do anything today except watch some anime and do things on the computer. I had intended to go out and get a bit of shopping, but when I looked out of the door and saw how cold wet and windy it was I changed my mind.

[Sasuke]

Slept in, did my weekly shopping, played a couple of games, watching some anime now. 

[Sarada]

I had volunteered several months ago to be on the team to help clean up around our college campus today and I instantly regretted it when I had to wake up early this morning and drag myself out in the cold to do it. I'm just glad to be back in my apartment where I can stay warm the rest of the day. 

[Zeref]

Finished up my Christmas shopping today. I usually do most of mine online but there was a few things I needed to go into the store to get and I got it out of the way today. Now to wrap them all which will take me until Christmas eve night

[Sakura]

I had a doctors visit this morning, which I found out things are healing exactly as they are supposed to do. Still can't find out if the surgery was successful or not until my next visit, but he seems hopeful that it was. 

Played RS today and started a GFX piece. Usually I have to finish a GFX work all at once and I don't like leaving it and coming back to it but that's what I had to do today. Mostly because I wanted to get back to watching the show "From" That @Sasuke and I are stream watching together on Discord lol

That all sounds like good news and very encouraging. Here's hoping that the surgery was a success.

Taking it easy and being lazy on this Sunday. Watching TV and playing some games mostly. I also helped to set up the Christmas tree but it hasn't been decorated yet. Only the tree is together and the tree skirt around it. We also put up some Christmas decorations on the windows and balcony with some Christmas lights and window stickers. I had to go down to our storage unit and bring up the boxes with Christmas decorations so we can start getting the rest set up this week.

Thanks <33 I'm hoping the same thing.

Today I helped put up some of the Christmas tree like Pessi mentioned. This week I guess will be organizing the Christmas decorations to start putting them up after Thanksgiving on Thursday. I played a little RS today and I got a GFX request from someone that I haven't decided if I will or won't do it yet. I may have time over the Thanksgiving break though to do it. Also on Season 2 now of "From" with Sasuke, and season 1 basically left me with even more questions than answers  

[Animedragon]

I went out and did the shopping I couldn't do last Friday and Saturday because the weather was so horrible, I also refilled the bird feeders again, I have a ravenous squadron of sparrows visiting my garden every day.  It's good fun watching them squabbling over whose turn it is at the feeder

I love watching birds lol I use to have some Cardinals that would visit my balcony before I moved and they were so pretty ~

Today I had classes, I need to stop staying up watching this TV show because I was falling asleep in them today x.x At one point I think I actually dozed off. Tonight I'm going to go to bed at my normal time. I also made some GFX for someone who made a request, though I don't like the way it turned out at all. I just hope they like it. I never do well at requests though it doesn't seem like I have any inspiration for them so I rarely take them for that reason. 

Completely random but I found the most amazing foundation today that makes my skin look completely flawless, covers any little redness or dark circles (from staying up too late ;_;) in one little swoop using very little of it and I'm insanely impressed and happy lol 

[Animedragon]

I went out this morning to get a bit more shopping. Someone mentioned blueberry muffins recently which reminded me that I like those so I put some on my list. So I now have a box of 4 to enjoy with my lunchtime cup of tea .  (not all at once I hasten to add)

As the weather was quite pleasant this afternoon I went out and did a bit of gardening.

[Zeref]

It was cold but still a nice blue day out so I went out for lunch at Smashburger down the street and a little exercise at the gym for my lunch. I had to dig out some more boxes today because according to Sakura we are missing Christmas decorations that haven't been located. Now we have to go out and buy more Christmas decorations to replace the missing Christmas decorations this weekend when I thought I was all done with Christmas shopping -.-

WOW! They are really fantastic photos.

There's a strange thing about Christmas decorations. You carefully pack them away on 12th night, but when you come to get them out again on Advent 1 half of them have disappeared, but no one seems to know why this happens. Some say that garden centres* are using a sort of dimensional vortex to suck them up so that you'll have to buy new ones each year.

* I don't know how it is in other countries but in the UK garden centres always have a huge display of Christmas decorations each year.

Thanks ~ I think this one was one of the prettiest sunsets we've had in awhile. 

Sounds about right  I don't know where the heck ours went because I know we had way more, so I guess it's off to buy some more. Our garden centers over here get transformed into Christmas sections as well at places like Walmart (ASDA in the UK) 

[Zeref]

I had to assemble some sort of purple flower tree @Sakura had bought and I was the lucky person to put it together  I have taken tomorrow and Friday off from work for the Thanksgiving holiday and I planning to stay up tonight to catch back up on some of my games. 

[Animedragon]

I've done pretty much nothing today apart from catching up on some indoor stuff, it's too cold to go out anywhere.

[Ohayotaku]

Put up some outdoor Christmas decorations this morning since it’s supposed to be MUCH colder tomorrow & last until at least late next week. Will be at my sister’s for Thanksgiving this afternoon. Hope everyone here has a good day
