The Same Old, Same Old

Do you ever get tired of having the same conversation over and over again?  I don't mean the one with your senile Aunt Fran who tells you for the 50th time about how she met her husband at the high school dance when he rescued her from that awful neighbor boy who was trying to take liberties.  Nor do I mean the one where you say "NO!" 400 times a day to your kid/cat/dog/spouse/etc as they go about their day causing naughtiness.
Round 'n round we go
No, I mean the one like where your friend with the history of dating serious losers calls you up to tell you all about the new man she met and includes stories of all the same warning signs that the last 6 boyfriends and 3 husbands had.  Then when you point that out to her she tells you that you are silly, you are wrong, and that it will be different this time.  Then you sigh and say whatever because it is the just the same old song, the same old dance.

Yeah, those kinds of conversations.

Anyway, this gal is tired of it and while I might appear to be playing along on the surface, I'm not. Don't be overly surprised if you find out that I've tuned you out in lieu of gluing pretty pieces of patterned papers together.

The Fine Print: That's my story and I'm sticking to it. I'll repeat that ad nauseum. Stamps by Lawn Fawn.  Enjoy the Ride!

I tune out all the time. Is that bad? At least you did something useful whilst tuned out - this card is a stunner. I love these bright colours and the great layout. Hugs, Jayne x

Some people just never catch the train and it's so sad that the other passengers have to endure the endless chatter......sigh! I don't go along for the ride anymore though - I jump off the train ASAP! LOL Great card, and I love how the theme reflects your thoughts today! Keep smiling, life gets better :)

I do the "we've been here before" thing until I just give up and nod. Some people seem to thrive on poor choices. Sad, really.
