Dear Too Scared to Admit It,
You’re not too scared—you’re too polite. After all, you know how you would feel if you gave someone a gift and she said, “Yuck,” instead of, “Thanks.” If you receive a gift from a particular store, it may be possible to return or exchange it. But usually you are stuck with whatever someone is kind enough to offer—and yes, you should even send a sincere-sounding thank-you note.

POSTED IN happy holidays, gift guide, dear carol solves family probs, advice from Carol Weston
Wow, I remember a lot of b-day prezzies that I didn't like but Christmas is always good, I remember my Grandmom and Grandpop always would buy my sister and I prezzies and say that Santa woke him up i the middle of the night and asked him to give the presents to us, that was absolutely the greatest! Except I caught my mom putting prezzies under the tree one year and I went running to Grandmom and told her that my mom was trying to be Santa, LOL! I was like 7, but I didn't realize it until I was around 8, maybe 9, but yeah, Christmas is one of my favorite holidays anyways Ana D.

I always prepare myself for the worst in the beginning- just say "Thanks so much!" and offer up a hug. It will have a use.......eventually..........

That's happened to me before, but many people in my family are awesome gift givers! On some occasions though, I do have to make my list very specific (exact name, what color, where itt can be found, etc.) or just ask for money and debits. Anyway, come check out my club, DIY queens, for crafts and recipes!! Happy holidays!
