Well, another freaky freak out. I sent my friend the Christmas package and she called me to say she liked it. But when we got to talking every time I had a little holiday cheer she crapped on it with her bah humbug attitude. We finally got into a fight, hung up, and have been exchanging crappy emails. Hers have made me cry and also it caused me to drink three beers mid-week! And I'm a rare drinker. Stupid. I had been carefully cultivating holiday cheer and had my little mental fire burning bright and my friend just came and poured beer on it. No, I poured the beer on it. It is going to take me a couple of days to detox. Why must people be so negative, especially around the holidays??? This one was kind of an ambush. (I guess they all are.) One thing I have found out this holiday season...the secret of the holiday is holiday cheer. I find the lights cheerful and just the all around festivities cheerful, and I swear this is the last person who is going to ruin my cheer. Some people just want to be in the Bah Humbug Party. I'm not going there.
