Merry Christmas 2021!!!

To be 100% honest, Christmas this year for me was rough. As the first Christmas since my separation, I was pretty emotional. I am happy to report that Damien had a great one so I'm very thankful for that. I couldn't do it without the unwavering support from my family. 
Tablet time
Ready for Christmas morning!
This is hands-down the best present I could have ever received from Damien. I almost cried after reading it!
Damien also decorated a bottle and made a crystal for me at school. He's so sweet!
Merry Christmas!
First off are the gifts I bought myself from money I received from my parents and grandma. I used my new slow cooker for my Christmas roast and it turned out great--yay!
I also bought myself an AeroGarden which I've wanted to try for years and a bubble tea set with a cute cup.

I also got a solid chocolate Hersey's kiss and a US themed rosary from my parents.
So the rundown of gifts for Damien are as follows:
From Grandma and Grandpa Hanks: a solid chocolate Hersey's kiss, a gold rosary, a voice changer (thanks for that), squishy eyeballs, and a 15 lb. weighted blanket.
From Great Grandma and Tom: Mario Party Superstars and two VR video games
From his friend Elijah: Roblox mystery boxes
Scott came over later in the morning for round two of gifts. From Grandpa Whitehill, Damien got new Switch controllers and rechargeable batteries.

From Great Grandma and Grandpa Whitehill, a giant Hersey's kiss (this kid LOVES chocolate I think more than I do).
Lastly, from Scott and I: An Oculus Quest 2 VR headset with a carrying case.
Being silly lol

As always, thank you to everyone for the Christmas presents! Very much appreciated :D

VIDEO: VR - Until You Fall
Trying out the new VR system. Damien picked out his two VR games already: Job Simulator where you can pick from a bunch of odd jobs (mechanic, chef, office worker, etc.) and Until You Fall which is where you fight bad guys with swords. Quite the workout!
We've had a lot of snow since Christmas! I don't think the pictures I take ever quite show it well enough.
