Yes, I use Facebook and yes, I really should quit. I will scream if I see one more post from a smug mum who has not only completed all her Xmas shopping, she has also wrapped everything, perfectly, neatly and with a cute little bow with bells on everyone.
How? When did she start shopping? My kids change their mind every five minutes in the lead up to Xmas, if I shopped for them in October they’ve be sorely disappointed with their gift come Xmas day, that was 27 letters to Santa- ago.
I always think to start early with the bits and bobs sections but then it just creeps up on me, every bloody year. The last thing I need is a pic of a smug mum with her perfectly wrapped pressies under her perfectly decorated Xmas tree, telling the world that she is ‘All ready for Xmas’.
The answer is, block her.
I’ve seen far too many of these posts this year with people all ready, it puts you in a panic. Thankfully I also know a fair few people who leave their shopping till xmas eve.
