At this point, you should say to your friend, “I really wish you had cleaned out the equipment before returning it. ‘Buster’s’ dog hair is everywhere.”

Dear Amy: “Disappointed” was dealing with a Florida relative who didn’t want to travel North for Christmas Day. Why must we celebrate these occasions on specific days?

When I realized my siblings and daughters-in-loves had standing commitments for Thanksgiving dinner, I created my own celebration.

Plus, airline tickets are much cheaper if you fly on the holiday.

 

– Apres Celebration

Dear Apres: Great suggestion. Thank you.
