While working it snowed for several minutes with us poor workers nervous about removing a ton of snow off our cars when we leave. No fear, it melted after a hour. It was just a sprinkle anyway.
We had a sale I had to jump into the excitement shopping for xmas presents. I know I am broke and can't afford to buy food w/out borrowing from Mom, but I didn't buy gifts last year so want to buy something. Trust me, I'm spending more on sweaters, shirts, dress pants, and shoes for work. Now I have to start replacing make-up. My store doesn't have blue mascara so have to try another, less glamorous, store.
Now if my adult family members were not so picky I would enjoy this more. We were raised to say "Thank you" when our relatives gave us presents. As adults it is all: You got the wrong size/color/brand/style, your gifts are so cheap , why did you think I would like this it's so ugly, why do I have to buy you a gift in return, and my favorite, You don't know me to know what I like. Well whose fault is that. Complainers don't talk to me about anything other than my job, we don't do things together, and they don't read my emails cause I'm not interesting enough. And they can't figure out why I can't telepathically know what they want for xmas. And if you don't want to return the gift gesture, then don't. I don't have to buy you anything either, I just enjoy giving to people. I have no husband or children to spoil so you people get to be the objects of my affection. I cut out friend gifts this year and only buying for immediate family. Maybe next year I'll cut out family and mail packages to friends who say Thank you.
