Please stop playing that Christmas music every year with your bright LEDs! I can’t read in peace, let alone have a drink on my porch. We all don’t need to hear it. Have you ever listened to it? It’s annoying and does not add to holiday cheer. I am not a Scrooge, just tired of being your neighbor and putting up with it every year! If you want music, play it inside your house!
I’m ticked off at the Maitland Post Office. I checked online to determine the postage necessary to mail a very thin scarf in a regular manila envelope to my sister, then added additional stamps. Two weeks later, the envelope was returned to me with “additional postage required” handwritten, without indicating how much more postage they required!
I’m ticked off that parents are not monitoring what their children are doing online and on iPhones. They think they are safe, but they are in danger due to predators lurking at every corner to pounce on them. Stop using these devices as babysitters, pay attention to what your children are doing and be a responsible parent. The internet has turned into a sewer and it’s getting worse every day.

The flip side

Thank you to Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen restaurant by the Orlando International Airport for having the best frozen drinks at the best prices all day long. The Painkiller is only $8.49 — limit two. The restaurant is so beautiful, the food is so tasty and hot and the service is very quick.
