Hey there, everyone. Since it’s been a while, I thought I’d pop in and post a Gratitude Challenge. :)
1. I’m almost finished with my Christmas shopping. I just need to pick up the Little Guy’s gifts and the rest of my stocking stuffers/treat bags. I’m nearly finished wrapping, too. Some of my Christmas cards will be late, but I’ll get them out regardless, and I’m grateful that I can get them out at all.
2. Saturday was Dick Van Dyke’s 100th Birthday. Woo! I’ve always loved watching him in Mary Poppins. I also enjoyed him in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Night at the Museum, and his guest appearance on The Golden Girls (he played Dorothy’s lawyer boyfriend who wanted to quit and become a clown, lol). And I LOVE The Dick Van Dyke Show.
3. John Cena. I’m grateful for John Cena. He just retired from pro-wrestling on Saturday, wrestling his final match at WWE’s Saturday Night Main Event. I’ve been a fan of John for 21 years (and counting), and I’m so grateful for the last two decades of fun. I’ve met him 3x, seen him wrestle countless times in person, and he follows me on Twitter — just more to be grateful for! I’m not even sure how a fan like me could thank him, but he knows we all love him. Truly the end of an era for me, though.
4. New Kids On The Block is going to be on Rockin’ New Year’s Eve. They’ll be performing from Vegas, so I’m not sure if it’s live or something from their residency. Either way, I’m looking forward to seeing my boys perform! We watch Rockin’ New Year’s Eve yearly, but I’m SO excited that my faves are performing again this year (the last time they performed at Rockin’ New Year’s Eve, it was 2018 into 2019).
5. I’ll be doing a bit of socializing this week, and I’m always grateful for that. Tonight, I’m going to play Yahtzee at a local restaurant with a friend (the restaurant holds a Yahtzee Tournament on the third Monday of every month). My niece usually tags along, but she needs a break from… everything, which is understandable. Wednesday will be the usual Trivia Night with that same friend. My niece can’t make Trivia Night this week, as she has plans. On Thursday, I’ll be spending time with my sister, our best friend, and the Little Guy for our best friend’s birthday.
Alrighty, I’m finished with my work (another thing to be grateful for), and I need to take care of a few things before heading out to Yahtzee Night, so I’m going to call it a day on here. You all stay safe, take care, and have a good evening. :)

It sounds like a good time is going to be had. I have yet to wrap the Christmas presents I got people, but I’m using gift sacks; I got a bunch of free ones a long time ago. I don’t really care that they are plain though. LOL Now, I just have to find tissue paper, which I think I might actually have as well.
