Wow! Another person who I am glad I do not live next to. A neighbor doesn’t take down their fall decorations, fast enough for you? Seems like your decorations lack one important thing, the spirit and love of Christmas. Maybe your neighbor went away for the holidays of Thanksgiving and hasn’t had a chance yet and is busy catching up. Maybe they’ve had some kind of a tragedy strike their family and decorations are the last thing on their mind. 1,000,001 reasons why it could be but only one for your irritation, which is your missing the point of Christmas.

I’m ticked off at Orange County schools. They are going down the guardian path. Guardian sounds like they are there to protect. But guardians cannot even break up a fight.

I am ticked off because from now on I will have to pay extra and order my postage stamps from Amazon because the USPS Mail carriers cannot be trusted to deliver my stamps! I filed claims and were denied refund or replacement of my Christmas stamps! Just because the tracking says that my stamps were delivered does not mean that they were not placed in the wrong mailbox! Humans are subject to error! Every time I try to talk to a human agent at USPS, I conveniently get disconnected!

The three dropped felony charges against Carolina Amesty, because she had no prior criminal history and the crimes were non-violent, is a travesty of justice. And avoiding a criminal record of the crime by taking a few courses and doing 30 hours of community service is a joke. Just because nobody is bleeding from these crimes doesn’t mean the criminals don’t deserve punishment to learn their lesson.

I am ticked off at myself for losing my badly needed new prescription glasses.

The flip side

Thank you to the very nice and generous woman who paid for our lunch Sunday at Jersey Mike’s in Maitland. Your kindness will be paid forward.
