so umm i'm bossy!

today was a fine example of just how truly bossy i am! i got to go christmas tree shopping with my dear friends annie and charlotte we walked into the garden center at target and started to look for the perfect tree. my idea of a perfect christmas shopping for a tree is to just look for the freshest needles and pick up and go. annie walks up and starts looking and says i love the color of that tree to which i said, "no that is dry look at a different one, like this one!" so we start to unravel the twine holding it together when this other family walks up and starts to help pull the string. annie shakes it out and its the perfect shape. she walks over to pay when the man and his two sons start talking and the dad says do you want to look here or do you want to go over to home depot? to which i respond, "they are the same here as over there you might as well just pick one here." so the older son starts to pick at trees and he starts to unwrap this tree, instantly i say to him you don't want that tree because its too dry. I pointed out the needles and he still starts to look at it. i point out a different tree and say that is the tree you want! the dad says yeah the top of that tree was ugly. so the kid grabs the tree i said for them to look at and start to unwrap it. next thing i know i am standing back with the dad saying that it was a great tree! SOOOO BOSSY. oh does it stop there NOPE... another set of ladies come in and start to look at trees (one had stopped to admire charlotte) they were behind me looking at this tree and i say really loudly that they didn't want that tree it wasn't good because the shape was all off and they wouldn't be happy! they sure did put down the tree and start looking at other ones! the man looked at me and said i will meet you here the same time next year christmas lady! so the lesson here i have no shame and will boss a virtual stranger if i feel like i am right!
