People often don’t think before they speak unfortunately.

My favorite cashier at the grocery store hates this time of the year. One time I answered honestly when she asked about the holidays. I said I hate them and she said "Me too." Customers are in a hurry or irritable/rude. They are open on the holidays, all of them even Christmas and New Year's but with reduced hours.

The holidays do upset one's routine, as even my gym will change their hours tomorrow because it's Christmas Eve. They will be open just a half day, and I know it will be really crowded due to that. So I have to go today even though I don't feel like it. It's the only place that's open almost all year, Christmas is the only holiday they are closed.

People don't think period.

I'm kind of afraid to go to a book club on the 27th because everyone will talk about their holiday and not the book. Everyone in there has family and grandchildren and go on trips, had big plans,etc.
