Boy was I glad to see the UPS truck pull in. I had ordered a bunch of stuff from abcdistributing.com and it was getting a bit too close to Christmas for my comfort. I was scared to death that something had happened to my package because it was supposed to be here three days ago. They had never let me down at ABC Distributing before so I kept my fingers crossed and hoped for the best. I almost gave the UPS guy a big hug when he knocked on my door.
I kept remembering one Christmas when Mom ordered just about everything we girls were getting from JC Penney’s and they promised her that she would have the items by the beginning of December. Well it didn’t come and it didn’t come and Mom called and called and all they could tell her is it was shipped and should be there and IF it isn’t, then give it a day or two and it will be there.
Just four days before Christmas, Mom had to go out and try to find presents for us for Christmas. It was crazy and we didn’t get hardly anything we had asked for but it was still a good Christmas. Then in February, the UPS guy knocked on the door with a package……………you guessed it, our Christmas presents. Mom told him to take it back and make sure they took as long to get it back to JC Penney’s as it took for them to get it to her.
