@Juliette: Not too bad. Just winding down for the night since I have to go to bed early.

@Evilcupcakecat: Understandable. I'm not sure why I can't bring myself to watch E.T. I know it's super popular, but for some reason I don't want to watch it?
@Evilcupcakecat: Out of all the ones you just named, I've only watched Home Alone and The Breakfast Club, so don't feel too bad lol. I haven't seen a ton of classics either.

@Juliette: Hi there. :) How are you?
I liked the first 2 Home Alone movies. Didn't care for the 3rd so much lol.

I'm super excited and also nervous lol.

Had to look up Boxing Day. Looks interesting, but I can't imagine having "second Christmas" lol.
@Wildfire: Sounds like a good day! It's been pretty chill here too (I'm at my parents' all day). Kinda wish it was warmer, but at least it's not rainy and miserable!
@Wildfire: Thanks, and same to you! I'm doing well. A bit sleepy, but it's good since I need to go to bed early tonight lol. Waiting for dinner, but it won't be ready for a couple hours. xP How about you?
Happy holidays everyone!! Hope everyone has been doing well?

She loved the earrings, and I was even able to find a similar necklace pendant to the one she lost, so I consider this year a success!

The pre-k has different options, I believe, but he's going in-person. The classroom has dividers to separate the students if they're at desks, and they will wear masks/shields when in close proximity to other students. He has 1 teacher and 2 teacher's aides, so I'm not worried about the staffing since I think the average class is now around 12 kids? No more than 18, we were told. He doesn't start until January 4th, and I'm taking that whole week off in case he struggles to adjust. But his teachers has LOTS of experience with transitioning kids of similar circumstances, so I'm trying not to be too nervous about the whole thing lol.
Guess we all have those moments lol.
I'm glad these tickets can be claimed whenever. I've been logging in to at least do that, but I did miss yesterday's, so glad I could claim it today.
I haven't been very active like all week lol. Oops. Guess I haven't felt very social.

Ohnoes, sad news indeed. D:

Hmm, good news...I go on vacation in like 2 weeks? I'm not going anywhere though. I just took a week off so my son can start pre-k and hopefully he transitions well since he's never been in such an environment.

@Wildfire: Thanks. :) I found her some nice earrings with one of her birthstones in them, so I hope she likes them. I forgot multiple birthstones were a thing, so I looked up December and found tanzanite, which is a colour I think she'd love since she loves purpley-blue hues.

And my son doesn't yet know he's starting school because he's mostly non-verbal. But school will help him with that, and I'm sure with time, he'll come to love it because being pre-k is all about having fun lol.
All that stuff in your second line sounds pretty tasty. xD I've never had apple in soup, but that sounds interesting!

I hope to be busy most of today too.

@Wildfire: Thank you! I do have some plans today, which I hope go well. I've got a phone call with my son's school's assistant vice principal and his new teacher here in a couple hours so we can go over some questions (he'll be starting in January). After that, hoping to go shopping in a city a little south of here to see if I can't find a nice necklace for my mom since she lost a pendant I bought for her a couple years ago (she's so heartbroken). Hopefully I can find something comparable.
