Presents you'd rather not get

I think the main one was the year my parents forgot to get me anything! :-5

Closely followed by the year they bought me a green striped jumper and purple skirt!

Hideous doesn't even come close to describing it!

I tried taking it back but the shop was SO pleased to see the back of it, they didn't want it back! :wah:

Then there was the year we went to my parents house. My daughter looked adorable decked out in Laura Ashley. My mother said "Get those old rags off of her, I've bought her a beautiful dress!" and she handed me a dress in bright yellow and orange tartan complete with Oxfam (charity shop) tag! :-5

I'm sure I'm adopted! Please God let me be adopted!

I love a present. I love being thought of.

I can honestly say that I have enjoyed everything given me except....

cheap, plastic rattya$$ jewelry that only a hooker would wear.

word games as a kid. I was a spelling bee queen and every Cmas I would get board games that had to do with spelling. Boring!

I used to collect pigs and piglets but every Christmas or Birthday that's all anyone would get me, something that was "pig"themed, I don't collect them anymore!!

i would rather not get clothes. My ex mother in law has the tackiest taste in america. She could give some real doosies.

Anybody that knows me , knows that you can give me a good smelling candle, or anything that goes in a bath and i am tickled. :wah:

jewelry!

I don't like it and nobody ever seems to believe me! Then I feel bad because it is beautiful but I'm not going to ever wear it. :rolleyes:
