I finished up all my necessary work a bit early so I got to leave about 30 minutes early. I'm looking forward to 4 days off of work and I found out my sister-in-law should be bringing my niece and nephews up for a visit on Friday.
Happy ThanksGiving y'alls! (I know Canadians already celebrated ThanksGiving but still).
Today is my sisters birthday as well, and she really liked the gifts I got her
Little does she know there's a part 2 coming later today (She doesn't use the forums so she won't see this if anyone wants curious)
I'm happy that I made it through my family's Thanksgiving gathering without a lot of stress and there was no fighting. It helped that my brother didn't show up because he's usually the instigator in all the fights.
My OH is making the bookings today to come see me the last week of December. I went down to his a few weeks ago so I didn't think we'd see each other again so soon - especially as I know he didn't get his full wages this month. Eeeee.
Got my World Family Ibiza pants in the mail today And the DHL dude was kind enough to arrange so I could pick them up because no way I would have gotten home in time when he called!
Also seeing a movie at the cinema tonight, looking forward and I need a break in studies.
I was able to pick up the last Scorbunny plushie from my local GameStop today. Saw that little dude actually over a week ago there but couldn't buy him around that time, so I was really happy that they didn't sold him. Got a nice place next to some other plushies of mine.
Discovered a new kdrama to watch and it does not disappoint in entertainment value. Found out my mom is watching the same one at the moment so it was nice to catch up with her and talk about it, since I rarely get to talk to her.
I saw some old friends today for the first time in over a year, and they were so happy to see me (as I was to see them)! When we were in junior high I used to go to their house and play Pokemon games all the time. They ended up changing schools when I was a sophomore in HS and I haven't seen them much since, but they're always happy to see me when they can
I won my very first online link battle in Pok?mon. I never battled another player in Pok?mon before today, and I won the first one. Granted, I expect to lose more battles than I win, but I’m glad that I won the first one.
I got to see my niece and nephews today...all 5 of them. And I felt like I spent some quality time with each one. I fed the baby and played with each of the boys separately.
I had some good conversations with the older ones, too. My 9 year old nephew had set up a scene with some toy soldiers. One group was hiding in houses and behind fences. The other group was standing in a line out in the open. He asked me which side did I think had more common sense. I said the side that was hiding. He said neither side had common sense because they were at war and wars kill people. I was so proud of him and told him that was by far the best answer.
