Christmas crud is surfacing.
10/22/2008
It was the annual figure out where the family will be having Christmas discussions.
I decided a couple of months ago that I am not going to do the holiday foray to Florida this year. I am not up for it: my car is a bit older, air fairs are already skyrocketing and budget wise, I just want to skip this year. Maybe later next year I will do the trip, but not for the holidays this year. Mom is not too happy with this, she putting the pressure on. My negotiating skills are going to be put to the test in the next couple of days.
I overheard some gossip at work yesterday, for me; I wasn’t disappointed with the news. The mud puddle I stepped in on Monday afternoon was winding its way through the system. I am not going to be the brunt of this misstep. I didn’t create it, it’s not my issue, and someone didn’t do their part and follow through. I am not taking the blame this time for their lack of action. Sorry, I have been down that road before and I didn’t like the trip.
