I got up and got some coffee, but didn’t get on the computer quite yet. I went and sat by everyone in the living room, and opened what was in my stocking. Then we all had breakfast.
After breakfast, we started opening the gifts. Casey was, of course, overjoyed to see the Nintendo Switch, and wanted to start playing on it right away. Fortunately, that was pretty much everything he’d gotten from my parents, so he was able to. I just had to enter some passwords into it before he’d be ready to play on it.
One of the things my parents got for me was a new purse, so I went into the guest room, where I sleep when I’m here and worked at fitting all my stuff in the new one. It’s a bit smaller than my Dooney, so it would be a challenge to get everything to fit. More than likely I will go back to using my Dooney at some point in the not-so-distant future, but I’d been kind of itching to change purses for a bit anyway. I do really like this one, it’s just the size that’s the questionable part.
They also got me some bath & body stuff from one of my favorite stores, L’Occitane en Provence. And a few other things, too. They actually did a good job of picking out gifts this year.
My parents had given me some money as well, so I went to Target to do some shopping. The primary objective was a new wallet since mine was too large for the new purse. I ended up spending all the money they’d given me and then some, lol. I was able to talk to Colin the entire time I was out, so that was nice.
After I’d been out for a couple hours, I headed back to their house. I went ahead and took care of my free book and paid emails while Casey played on the Switch next to me. After a while, my dad headed out to pick up some Mexican for us to eat. We ate when he got back, and then I got on Fallout. Casey would be playing Super Mario Maker 2 for the rest of the day. It would be a challenge to ever get him away from it, lol.
Casey went and got on the toilet, and come to find out had made a mess of his underpants and PJ pants. I had to get him into the bath and his clothes into the wash. Once he was out of the bath, I got in the shower. I’d needed one the night before but hadn’t been able to face it.
After my shower, I got back on Fallout for a bit, until it was time to get Casey into bed. I read to him and tucked him in, then got right back on Fallout again. I played on there until I was ready for bed myself.
