Why is it this is the only time of the year we ALLOw a total stranger to throw candy at our heads (parades), rings bells to the point of migraines or insanity, and when they run over our heels to get to that "blue light special", we smile and BITE our tongue in half???
Oh yes, it is the holidays!!!! I swear ,...this is worse than FULL-MOONs and the ER!!
People seem to forget about huamn kindness for others. What ever happened to do un to others..............????
Just curious,....something to think about this season as we shuffle through the isles AMLESSLY attempting to find that PERFECT gift!!

Not in Southern LA. Every parade has necklaces and candy. Mardi Gras, festivals, celebrations, Christmas, Thanksgiving, even when the military men and women come home. We do it to celebrate!

i havent experienced any of that, but i suppose its because of where i get my gifts, my own little hands, ive been quilting and painting since june. stupid isnt it, i know im just a total moron, but i have made all my own gifts for people since i was seven and at 59 im still doing it. I must have made a thousand doll dresses, pillows, potholders, table decorations, i painted all my christmas cards, made candy, painted several pictures, one i just gave a friend tonight, after she had to put the dog to sleep last night and i had already done a portrait of the dog, i knew it wasnt well. You see, i dont have much family or many friends. but the ones i do have know its from the heart, no matter what, Blessed Be

Guess you haven't been to a Mardi Gras Parade or event! (otherwise you would know that Christmas is NOT the only time of year that candy is thrown at people's heads -- and those beads, ah, yes, all those beads thrown at people's heads too).
