    Right up there with the "friends" who are only around when they need you to do something for them

You don't seem to have time to "like" or comment on mine. Maybe we are not friends. I know I am tried of trying. Maybe we weren't really that good of friends. Maybe there are better people for me to spend my time with. If you still want to be my friend, do things with me, if you care...the balls in your court. I am moving on!

    Thankfully, I've managed to shed those types. It's amazing what getting sick does to your "friend" pool.

    Definitely (moms illness), when she finally passed away I looked around and we were down to about five friends total. The good ones.

    I thought it was just me.

    Hope you're feeling good snap.

    There are days when I feel like the universe is french kissing me and the next one, I can't even catch a green light.

    Dear ******,

    Next year, you will be getting nothing or lumps of coal for Christmas. So you don't like what I sent to you this year. But was it really necessary to say that no one liked it, even though in years past everyone loved it. But this year not only everyone hated it but had to add that you can get the exact same thing where you live, is not only not nice, was it even necessary?

    And for that, I went and cancelled a shipment of Pacific Northwest wild caught smoked Sockeye salmon. Saves me $$ while at it. BTW,our cats and dogs are getting organic free range chicken over the holiday season. And they were bit naughty this year. so PPPTTHHHH!!!

    I'm very tired of the snarky comments and other not so nice comments.

    Sincerely,

    smilingcat

    On a slightly different note: My local barista asked us if we were nice? so I said mostly and in return I asked her the same. She grinned and said no. She said may be two lumps of coal and huge beaming grin. Must have been good.
