I’m soooo bummed...

I learned two days ago the family got togther (without me) and they decided there would be ‘no wrapped gifts’ this year rather a cash swap. (I don’t do cash!)..... The reason is the youngest now is 21 and this is what the parents and the kids want to do.... And to add injury they all have ‘other’ plans for Christmas Eve so my usual aleep over and festivities with family isn’t going to happen....further they all want to sleep in Christmas day so I don’t need to be there til after noon for a breakfast brunch....Worse still they are all on Vegan food or diets so I’m not to bring fattening foods.

The ‘Grinch’ completely stole my Christmas Giving!

CW :(

Gosh, I don't suppose you live near southern Indiana do you? You would be so welcomed at our Christmas Eve party. Lots of meat and sides with fun games. I'd be bummed out too. Take care.

A cash swap? Yikes. Maybe next year will be better.

If I wanted to give presents, then I would take presents. For heavens sake!

Oh, caww...that IS a bummer....show up, anyways....bearing gifts!

Cash swap???? That just isn’t right. Takes the fun, joy and excitement right out of it.

Don’t let them Grinch your Christmas.

Wow caww. Just wow.

They got together without you to decide what THEY were going to do for Christmas, and you can like it or lump it? Sounds like you’re a member of Nancy Pelosi’s family, or Adam Schiff’s. That’s truly horrible.

I would find somewhere else to spend Christmas. Anywhere. Friend. More distant relative. Anywhere.

Just keep your eyes on the REASON for the SEASON, and you’ll have a Merry Christmas, dear caww.
