Dear Grouchy Resident Grinches:

Resistant and damned stubborn about it? Don’t ask about the busted bulbs, the gnarled garland, or the tilted tree, right? No red or green decorations before Thanksgiving, right? And you never need anything, now do you?

Nope. Instead, you’re a mean one, right? Let’s guess … you pace around repeating, “Hate, hate, hate. Double hate!” … right?

You are one of the unfortunate “Scrooged.”

This is a bathroom trash can and when in place in a bathroom, it is not allowed to be utilized as an actual trash can. Recovered Resident Grinches only need to learn the rules to shed their Scrooged attitude at this time of year.

Well, we know you. We see you. We were you. And we’re here to inform you that you’re wasting your time because, what we have learned is, “Maybe Christmas doesn’t come from a store … maybe Christmas perhaps means a little bit more.”

Translation? Joining the fun doesn’t mean you have to spend a bunch of money, and that’s because “Christmas cheer” actually is free of charge and – BEWARE!! – is quite contagious.

God bless us every one – even you, you grumpy, grouchy Grinch!!

The Ghost of Christmas Present
