Grinch (MSW) - a bi**h. Or someone who hates the holidays. Unfortunately, I'm a little of both.
I told you about my holiday shopping already. But I have to tell you I'm a bit of a grinch. Sadly, in both ways. Quite frankly, I hate the holidays. People always ask me why. Hmm....let me think.
First, I'm a mother. What does that have to do with it? Hello?! I do the cooking. I do the cleaning. I do the shopping and wrapping. I have to think of what to even get the monsters before I do the shopping. On top of that, I pay for it all. Then after the "beautiful Christmas morning" is over, I get to hear the complaints that they didn't get what they wanted! And inevitably, someone is always telling me they got the wrong thing, the wrong size or something. So I am a grinch. I am crabby and don't look forward to it much.
But I do love seeing the lights and singing along with the music. I love seeing the joy on kids faces (just maybe not my kids!). So maybe I'm not a total grinch after all.
