I can't say I hate the meaning of Christmas (though traditionalists have the whole idea entirely wrong) but I DO hate the commercialism of the season and I hate getting the shopping for the inlaws dumped on me. Don't get me wrong, my inlaws are great people and have really helped us out through the 13 year journey my hubby have been on, but I grumble somehow get the responsiblity of doing all the cards and shipping for both sides of the family on both ends of the country (Tennesse and Arizona). Here's the good part,...my hubby bought me a shredder for Christmas this year. JUST WATCH all that paper(receipts and such) in our junk drawers go away !!YIPPEE!!!! laugh

I shouldn't complain, but this has been a nice bout of steam to blow. Thanks for the outlet.

TEEEEEEEEEEEEJ
