The word for today is…

replete (adjective):

1: fully or abundantly provided or filled  
2a: abundantly fed  
b: fat, stout  
3: complete

Source : [Merriam -Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/replete?ref=goodoil.news)

Etymology : Given that one of the roots of replete is the Latin verb plēre, meaning "to fill," it isn't surprising that the word has synonyms such as full and complete. Replete, full, and complete all indicate that something contains all that is wanted or needed or possible, but there are also subtle differences between the words. Full implies the presence or inclusion of everything that can be held, contained, or attained ("a full schedule"), while complete applies when all that is needed is present ("a complete picture of the situation"). Replete is the synonym of choice when fullness is accompanied by a sense of satiety.
