Cats are the best and worst little creatures. I have serious doubt that I would have made it very far into adulthood without my first companion keeping me company; fitting, in retrospect, that she held on and passed barely a month after I became a properly functioning person again.
Aside from being in a prison of my own making at this precise moment, I can't complain much. Nothing a good night's rest won't fix; nothing more poor life decisions won't break again tomorrow.
I would say I'm generally content and at peace, though. Ignoring social media and other clown fiestas helps a ton.

Two days ago, my other cat caught a mouse, brought it inside, then murdered it in front of me and left me to clean up the corpse.
I was not happy that day.

Yuuup, they are fantastic for that. I try to keep our current menaces (there are three, I'm outnumbered!) out of the garage because the youngest one already likes slobbering all over her mouse toy and leaving it in the bed, and field mice constantly manage to slip in there during the cooler months.
If I climb into bed and come face to face with a mangled actual mouse the windows are shattering and I'm sleeping on the couch for a while.

I think I'm happy overall. Overall, I have a lot to enjoy about my life, but happiness is fleeting. My life is way better than most, a lot more fulfilling than it used to be, and elements provide me with joy.
I'm also very frustrated at times, and I go to darker places. I think most people can do that. It is hard to balance sometimes. Things could certainly be better, but they could be a hell of a lot worse. I know that isn't the question, though.

Generally yes, day to day depends. I find myself getting frustrated more easily lately though due to how much people rely on me in all aspects of life. I am the only one at work that can do some things, I am the person in charge of maintaining the house, cars, yard, finances. I help the kids with school work, take them to all appointments. I am the executor to the family estate, the person my siblings confide in, the one my dad trusts to get through to family that is not doing well... I feel like I can't ever just exist for a day or two.
But overall I am lucky to be where I am and am happy.

last year was....tough. i lost my dad, my wife lost her dad. i spent 3 months sorting my dad's house. we had to move house. we had to deal with a lot of other stuff i don't wanna talk about, too.
things have since improved a lot. so, yes. my perspective on life has changed a lot recently. i am happier, anyway

Outside of the occasional loneliness feeling I feel pretty fine. I'd be better if I got my lazy but out of bed when I wake up at 7 on weekends so I can beat the crowds to the best breakfast spots, but my bed is super comfy and there's lots of GW and Reddit to scroll through and YT videos begging to be watched.
And to be honest, the "I'm so lonely" is kinda on purpose. I can only take so much of people and I haven't really found someone that I really enjoy hanging out with. I thought maybe I had one a decade ago, but we fell apart.

You know what that means.Right now I'm sad because the dog we've been sitting for almost two months is going to be heading home on Tuesday:
But overall good and excited. Moving into the new house soon!
Also as I was typing this the dog came over to cuddle.
Time to get your own cuddle buddy.

That all sounds pretty great to me. I wasn't happy until I lived alone and got regular time to myself. This weekend I attended three social gatherings and after two I was kinda regretting having agreed to the third.
Weekend mornings laying in bed are the absolute best. Don't let the haters who think everyone must be productive all the time ever convince you otherwise.

If it ain’t LabCorp it’s Quest Diagnostics…
How can they have so many issues nationwide? Is it REALLY that difficult to track?
