What Are You Happy About Today?

Christmas was pretty enjoyable today! My mom and I went to the movies and saw the movie Mufasa, I really enjoyed it and thought it was a great pick for the holiday movie. We also made cinnamon rolls this morning before we unwrapped our presents. I'm also planning on putting up my television this weekend that I got for Christmas from my Dad (which was totally unexpected), I didn't want to put it up today because I am going to have to clean a little bit before it can be placed safely where it needs to be.
 
Christmas was really great today! I got to sleep in and then chilled for a bit and got to play some games. I received a bunch of nice Christmas gifts including an Amazon gift card, some money, a nice shirt made out of cashmere, a long-sleeve Luka Doncic shirt, a cookbook, and some other things. But perhaps my favorite gift of all was a Texas Rangers quilt that was custom-made for me, and includes the shirts of all the Texas Rangers shirts my mom owned when she was alive. Despite not being alive to see them win the World Series in 2023, I saw it for the both of us, and I'm sure she would have loved this. I also had the best Christmas dinner ever consisting of steak, green been casserole, cheesy potatoes, croissants, and tiramisu for dessert. Ended up cleaning my entire plate. And last, but certainly not least, among the gifts I got for my family included a pair of tickets for my dad and I to go see the Dallas Mavericks take on the OKC Thunder in January. Hope everyone had an amazing Christmas! 💚 🎄 💚

My mood has been not good today but, I just took a look at the stocking stuffers and I’m incredibly touched and happy 😭. I’m also feeling guilty for not being able to do extras as I had hoped to do.

I’m posting this here since the stocking stuffer thread is loading slow for me.

@KittenNoir @BetsySundrop @Halloqueen @Xara @Muna
@oak @skarmoury - I’m so incredibly touched 😭. You’re all so kind; I’m really glad I’ve gotten to know all of you :D. I feel the same about you all; always nice to see you all and read your posts :D. I love them all and what you wrote in the description, so incredibly thoughtful and creative. I’d love to draw something for you all sometime though even though Christmas is over 🙂. I still owe Xara a draw the user above you, but if you have any requests or just want to be surprised, I’d be happy to return the favor 🙂. I just bought procreate and got a drawing pencil so I’m eager to try them both out! :D

@Dinosaur thank you so much again for the amazing and really adorable secret santa art. :D I love everything about it. Your art style is really cool!

This event. It started out a bit rough for me, but I’m seriously glad I pushed through. I had so much fun probably more fun than the halloween event since I was burnt out for that one 😅. I love the collectibles from the gift boxes and was happy to see the charities that were being donated too.

I was so happy that my family was able to get the usual crab for part of our meal; it was so delicious! We get crab only at Christmas unless it is too expensive.

My kitties got extra spoiled today too. One of my nieces spent her own money to buy them some toys 🥹. My nieces loves my cats so much. My oldest niece also made me a cat Christmas card.

Jewels got in the scratcher house before my mom was done and she swatted at spanky when spanky peeked in it 😾. I couldn’t find her favorite banana toy in the store but I found a rainbow and pineapple thing by the same brand. she seems to love it…for now 😅. Both of them love this cat teaser with feathers we got them; feathers are already falling out lol.

Jewels rested on my lap a little while my sister and her family were about to leave. She and Spanky don’t like the noise or energy. They did come out more than usual though 🙂.

I tried a bit of spiritfarer and cozy grove! Both have really cute art and came with some cute stickers; and seem interesting so far.

Been having fun playing Genshin; I think I’m caught up to the story now; i’m bummed a bit about that in a way. Really excited still about the new character I like and seeing what happens next 👀.

That’s it for now! :)

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Christmas was pretty nice. I didn't get a lot present wise but it was nice to chill with my family after the hectic holiday week I've had. Some of my brothers and I even played Mario Party Superstars which was nice. I can't remember the last time we actually played a Mario Party game together. My parents also loved their gifts.
 
What happened yesterday:
- I went shopping with my parents and saw a rainbow outside.

- Finished the drawing for Season's Greetings. I didn't have time to submit the Christmas card before the deadline, so I'll post it here.

What happened today:
- My aunt came over to visit and we ate lunch together. We didn't celebrate Christmas this year, though it was still nice to have someone come over to visit during the holidays.
- My sister's cat slept on my lap again and started purring.

I was cleaning my room and found an old laptop that I stopped using (because it wasn't charging) but it looks like it started charging today and was able to access old stuff 😃 I'm debating if I should sell it or just have a second laptop.
 
Yesterday was such a great day. It was nice sleeping in . We took Aurora for a nice walk before opening gifts . Aurora and my mom loved the gifts I got them. I got so many great things for Christmas 💜.
From my mom : I got three new books. A penguin plushie, my favorite chocolate truffles Some chocolate marshmallow Santa’s, a new puzzle and some meringues. From my brother and his gf I got the my sims cozy bundle and some different types of hot cocoa mix. Since I love hot chocolate.
Aurora got Christmas toys and treats . She got a new Woodstock toy from my brother.

We went over to see my brother and his gf for Christmas Dinner. It was a really nice time. We made macaroni and cheese and cookies to bring with us.
When we got home we took Aurora for a walk and stopped at my friends house to give her kids their gifts. They were so happy with their gifts,
So incredibly happy that @Dunquixote made me the most amazing stocking. It has all my favorite things and even thought to include Aurora . You have no idea how happy I am that you thought of me .
The holiday gifts turned into incredible collectibles as always. It was such a fun event.
Hope everyone had a fantastic day.
