Thank you to
nopseud for a fantastic card. It had unicorns on, which really, are almost as amazing as sparkle deers, and to
solariana for the beautiful card and calendars, both of which were fantastic and I love a lot. You made great choices for me ♥
We also got a lovely card from Shauna, Kayleigh's ex. I still miss seeing her and we have a chat over messenger every now and then to catch up and keep saying we'll meet for a coffee, though haven't been able to make that work yet.
Things went well yesterday. My MiL got to see my nephew and her Christmas wish granted, and I got to go to soft play again with my youngest niece and nephew. Where I ended up in the ball pit. I have to admit, they're not as much fun as they look and it doesn't help that they're sure to be filthy. A few times I've watched kids spill stuff in soft play and just leave it, and also, young kids, sometimes they're just grimy.
Today we've booked tickets to see Star Wars Thursday morning and then Cats the next day. I'm looking forward to them both in different ways. Then Saturday we're going to my aunts. This time I'll try and get some photos of her Christmas display because they're seriously amazing.

Yes they are!
I know you've seen Star Wars now, so am glad you did go to see in the end, and enjoyed parts of it.
I'm most deffo NOT going to see Cats. For one thing, I rather save my coin for something I know I'll enjoy and secondly I'm not a fan of musicals. Even the super trainwreck-y possibility of this movie is not enough to pull me in. BUT I do want to know how you did or didn't like it, hahah.
Ah, Cats. I need to actually do a post about this as a couple of people asked if I'd say how it was. First, you know I'm easily pleased by most films, entertain me and I'm happy. So, I didn't hate it. Were the cats freaky looking? Oh hell yeah, but I got used to that by the end.
If you don't like musicals you'd be screwed as there's very little spoken dialogue, just songs and the whole thing feels disorganised and scattered at times with things that make no sense.
But at the same time. As a cat person, I was impressed at how they captured the movement of cats, and some of the musical numbers were really catchy. It also made me think of Freeisa going off to another life which made me sad and then happy, so I guess there's that too.
