That's super helpful, thank you! I think between today and tomorrow I should soon be able to afford the last items from previous years that I need!

haha thats good, i will keep throwing you hearts when i reach 10 each time

Just did the math. I need 350 more hearts to buy out my items!

alright we can do this before the event is over ;)

Defo!! Only 150 to go!! Your hearts are SO helpful! <3

i will throw you a few more today

Thanks so much!! Just need 30 more C:

i'm sure you've got that covered by now.. been busy

Yep! Did it! C: Now everything I'm collecting is for next year C:

I'm loving living alone. I don't know how I'll ever share again! I was worried I might feel isolated, but I really don't. There's always someone to have lunch with or something to do after work. I'm heading over to see my parents in a bit - I'm making a cake right now for my Mom's birthday.

How are things going with you and Nate these days?

Nah I LOVED it. The only thing that freaked me out a bit about living alone was if I choked I'd probably die because it would take days before someone noticed I hadn't been around. ;)

What kind of cake?

Things are great! We super urgently came to my hometown yesterday.. my sister had her baby yesterday morning!! I'm an aunt!!

Haha, I don't think I've ever choked on anything to that degree. I managed to get myself to the ER a few months ago when I had a health scare so I'm feeling pretty okay about my ability to not die alone, haha.

It's a french vanilla cake with whipped cream and raspberries!

That's so exciting! Is it her first baby? For some reason, I thought she already had kids? What's the name?

Is everything okay?!

That cake sounds amazing. I'm trying to cut back on my carb intake since I started personal training about a week ago.. but some things just make my mouth water. Moderation, moderation, moderation.

It is her first! It's a little girl - Amelia C: We'll call her Mia.

glad i could help :3

I'm good! Doctors thought I may have had kidney stones, but if so, they passed before anything could be confirmed - that was the most frustrating part, not knowing for sure what caused all the symptoms! I just dealt with a very unpleasant week, but I'm 100% fine now.

As in you're working with a personal trainer? That's amazing. Honestly, ever since I moved, my gym-going and activity have gone down the drain. I know I need to make more time though. It just seems like there's always something else more important to do that comes up. I want to join a bootcamp or something, because I know I'm more likely to stick to it if there's a schedule. What made you decide to go with personal training?

Aww, that's so cute, congrats to her!

How's your weekend?

I actually joined a new curling team and our goal is to get to the olympic trials in 2022. Everyone on the team is really big into fitness and I wanted to catch up to them and show I'm at the same commitment level so I decided to get a trainer! I've always said that if I had a surplus of income and could afford it I'd give training a try. So far I really like it. It's nice to just show up and be told what to do and do it.

That's a very cool goal to have! And I'm sure it's nice to take off the pressure of deciding what to do. I tried personal training through good life when I first joined years and years ago because they had a special 'welcome' deal, but it was way too expensive for me at the time. Once the special rate ended, it would have been one third of my income at the time! How did you find your personal trainer? Do you still go to good life?

long, the snow is very depressing :(

I do still go to goodlife yeah. They were SUPER expensive for personal training so I was like screw that. So far so good! We've had 3 sessions. Couldn't walk after our first one for 2 days haha. Had one yesterday and I'm sore today... but not NEARLY as bad as it was last week.

I hope your Survival went well! I haven't really gone through and gotten the items I want yet, so I don't know if I was short or not...but some people did more than a thousand kisses for some contests...and I was just like wow! Hope you're doing well! <3

I hope it's stayed warmer there? We were getting warm, and then it just got cold again here. And rainy. Yuck. I've been poofy as far as Subeta has been concerned for these past few months. But I hope you had a good Survival and got plenty of kisses! Sorry to hear you fell behind in your contest...some people were doing over a thousand kisses and I was just plain amazed. I'm doing alright...procrastinating working on a paper. Hope you've been doing well? <3

Haven't gotten around to seeing how many hearts I got, haha. It should be enough to get the items I want the most...and if not, I'm not too worried about it. c; I hope you had a nice Survival and got plenty of kisses, though, and are doing well! <3

Most of the zombie strains are creepy. I did the blind one for this year and got the bird one...which is better than the naked mole rat one. I then did the glowy-aura one, but since I don't really use them didn't feel the need to try for another. I hope you got a good amount of kisses and flowers!

It's nice to meet you, too! Hope your Survival went well and you're doing fantastic!
