A friend got me a bunch of goodies like hot chocolate mix,
candies, and some lotion and a bath bomb. Another friend got me some chocolate and a dog-themed calendar for next year. Boyfriend got me a teapot like I asked him to because he's a good boyfriend who listens to me when I ask him to get me something instead of trying to surprise me with something I didn't ask for (he learnt his lesson after the first time). Boyfriend's mom got me a pajama and a sweater because she's a sweetheart. She also made us a date-kit which includes a gift card to a restaurant, a gift card to the movies, and some chocolate that I'm uber excited for. Since Boyfriend and I don't live together I ended up with the date-kit until the day of the date but I'm being a good girlfriend and not eating the chocolate on my own. My mom got me a pair of boots. And Boyfriend's sister-in-law baked us some cookies.


I got the first friend some cookies and a hot chocolate mix (lol great minds think alike), second friend some chocolate and a mug (because she doesn't like the mugs she's already got). I knit a scarf for Boyfriend (took me a year and a half, but I had it ready for his birthday...
but decided to hold it off for winter months instead). I got Boyfriend's mom a pre-paid credit card, my mom some home-made jam, and baked them all little cakes. Because I'm terrible at gifts.

She is
She's three, a ball of energy, and she likes me. Half the time, if that, she doesn't even say aunt
She likes Gramma (mom) too
And dad is Paw-paw
I call her Paw cuz her initials spell out PAW

My siblings are all half, from both parents' first marriages. From dad a sister I hardly see and mom only ever badmouths. From mom a brother and sister. Sister and dad get along, or used to. She's... A whole story. Dad and brother growing up did not get along. They do much better now, to the surprise of many
Dad likes his granddaughter ovo
Also, mom and I inadvertently trained Paw. Time to eat? Call Grandma. No? Call [me]
OOPS

Did get a video from my sister of Teddy (nephew I do see) playing with the giant teddy bear I got him though

My partner and I both signed up for reddit's secret santa for the first time this year. He gave his giftee a pokemon light, a harry potter flag, and a gift card. I gave mine a coffee sampler, two shirts, pocky, and a weird dessert ramen noodle thing from Japan. We didn't get anything from it; both of our santas ditched us. My father gave me cash.

I have been un-ditched! Well, my original Santa still ditched me. But, if you're ditched, you have a chance to get matched with another Santa. And my re-match Santa got me something. It's not here yet, but it's on the way. My partner got a re-match Santa too, but they haven't sent anything yet.
