Santa Squee

[hamsterwoman]

So, I was going to make a regular RL post at some point (short version: Big Meeting went well, work has calmed down a bit, Covid still sucks) but then a thing happened which preempted it, which is that I got my -- unexpectedly early! -- Secret Santa package via ikel89/

Happy Hanukkah! I would have forgotten about the candles on days 2-4, but my kids have made sure to light them. :)

Happy Hanukkah! (Have you figured out a plan for days 7 and 8? ;)

Rodents are mid-finals, and B is done with school, so I'm the only one paying attention to the passage of time and having to remind about candle lighting.

I've been really checked out, somehow. I'm leaving the decision to those who care more (my kids). :)

Fair! And good for their problem solving skills development! :)

Wow - lots of cool stuff in that parcel!
She definitely put a lot of thought into everything.

Yes! I was so amazed to how much this was catering to all my interests and fannish loves and various things I like. So lovely to get that, from someone I've never even interacted with!

what an awesome package :) Mine is done, I just need to get it to the post office

[hamsterwoman]

It really is!

I sent off my own parcel the day before, which I guess earned me mine, from the universe, haha :)
