gotta give it up

They say that this is the season for giving.

Why can't it be the season for receiving? LOL

Seriously, it's good to give. Then again...it could depend on what you give. I remember one time a young 12kyle gave a chick his a pink slip for Christmas. Yep...broke up with her the week of Christmas. LOL. But I was young and crazy back then.

Nevertheless, we're talking about gifts today. What is that special gift that you'll be getting for your man/woman? Or your child/parent/family member?

Keep in mind that you may have to be discrete. For example, don't say that you're gonna buy your momma a mink coat if you know that she reads this blog...b/c she does read this blog. haaaaa

in 3 more months...

I was looking at my calendar today.

Then...it hit me.

In 3 more months, we'll be celebrating Christmas.

Wow!! This year has really flown by. Seems like Christmas was just a few months ago.

Anyway, the thought of Christmas brings to mind the birth of Christ and the gift giving. They say that you should give and not expect anything in return. Well...we all know better than that! LOL!!!

As I think about the great gifts that I've gotten over the years, I think about the terrible ones, too. It's not that I'm ungrateful but some things should just not be given as gifts.

For instance...THE SWEATER. A few years ago, my Aunt Ruth, whom I love dearly, gave me a sweater for Christmas. I was in college at the time. The sweater was PURPLE and GOLD (my high school colors). The problem was it was not a good looking sweater. It looked like something from the 70s. Not to mention, it was too tight. I mean it was so tight that if i raised my arms...I'd rip through tha damn thing! LOL

Well, I accepted the sweater from my aunt. And I never wore it.

Never.

It was a bad gift. I know it's the thought that counts but she could've thought a lil bit harder than that! Haaaaaa

What about you? Have you had some horrible Christmas gifts? Or what about your best Christmas gift?

Hollatchaboi!!!!
