What was a gift that wasn't well-received?
I guess I will need to limit this to one that wasn't well-received by me, because I think I'm a pretty good gift giver...
I got married young, at the age of 20. My mother-in-law HATED me. I never did anything to her, it's just that her son, my husband, was a mothers boy...like none you've ever seen. One year for Christmas, I really needed a winter coat. I asked her for one for Christmas. I remember Christmas Day coming and her giving me my gift. Please remember that I was 20...a young woman, full of life, and energy, and fun, and whimsy....
and it was a coat. A shit brown full length ugly ass coat, 2 sizes too big. I never wore it...it got donated, and I went the entire winter without a winter coat.

So today was better than yesterday. Did a little Christmas shopping...managed to get 3 people off the list done. I know I'm doing all this last minute, I just really hate shopping alone. It's times like this, and all other times, that I wish my best friend lived closer. This is the stuff we should be doing together. :o(
I was just thinking I have Christmas shopping to do too and I am not looking forward to doing it alone. Maybe next year we should plan a "Christmas Shopping Girls Day".
ReplyDeleteWow that jacket is just gorgeous *puke*. Sorry you have to shop alone. I would love to shop with ya but we would buy way too much and a whole bunch of it would be jokes for each other instead of anything you really needed haha.
