Christmas Shopping

[Janet]

I really don't mind shopping if I have an idea what to get. My son (as with most kids) always had a list a mile long, but as he is getting older, even he has a tough time deciding what he would really like to have.

I simply hate having to return things. They ask so many questions... I just want to give them the item, give them the reciept and then for them to give me my money!!!!! A lot of times I just don't return them and sell them in a garage sale.

I must get it from my mom....if I receive something from her and need to return it, she'll just "return it" (because she won't) and if she needs to return something I bought her, she tells me "I" need to return it. I told her next time we'll just exchange cash....ha ha ha

I have to tell another story......ha ha.....Last year she gave me a sweatshirt for Christmas, but it was the wrong size. She told me where she got it, so I checked the store here in Frankfort. They didn't have it, so I went to Lafayette and checked, well they didn't have it either. So I called Mom from the Lafayette store and told her that neither had it and she said that she didn't really get it from there, it was a sweatshirt she had and just gave it to me....After all that running around, standing in exchange lines and it was something she had in a drawer from home....she had no idea how long she had had it.... GGRRRR!!
