Someone should start a National Re-gifting Website (maybe a new forum here) where everyone can exchange this “not quite right items” for others?  |

But as the years wore on I started to wonder if this wasnt their way of letting me know I wasnt what they considered "normal".
Id have to say the year that best qualifies as a HMMM. Would be the year I got a pink high necked polyester blouse that buttoned up the back with 40 teeny little round fabric covered buttons. And a pink Santa Claus.
Now I saw these peeps weekly and had voiced my preferences many times over the years. ANY body that knows me knows GREEN is my very most favorite color and I hate Pink. Not to mention that I would have to be sedated to wear a turtle kneck in ANY form. EEK: Just the thought is making me twitchy.

I was very clear with him this year- even told him where to buy what I wanted (insulated cups). Well I got a hideous glass turtle.....?!?!?!?!?!

This one is on the not pretty side though- it's not even tacky enough to amuse me.

No cookies for you. How could you not appreciate handmade Christmas cards. Some peeps are lucky to get any cards.

How could he be so uncaring to his own dear Mother.
Vile Child. And after all the wonderful gifts youve given him. May I ask just how old is this ungrateful little wretch.
