My LBI granddaughter expressed a desire to get Josie Maran's face cream for Christmas. I had given my LBI daughter a couple of mine and she loved it, so she wouldn't let her girls use it.

So my daughter with whom I live (E) asked me to order it for her to give to C as she doesn't have an account with the Q. So I order it for her. It comes in and I think, "oh no, now I have two gifts for C and only one gift for J (my LBI daughter's other daughter). I text LBI daughter immediately and ask if she wants to give C the face cream or should I get another gift for J? She writes back, "mom, that's for E (the daughter with whom I live) to give to C, not you." Then I remember why I ordered it. This was a span of several days, not a momentary thing.

Should I give the annoying saleswoman from "A Place for Mom" a call? I just send her an email yesterday that I wasn't ready yet.

@straykatz

I have four daughters and it's hard to define which one I am talking about. So I say, "oldest," "youngest," "the one who lives with me," and I call my third daughter my "LBI daughter" because she lives on Long Beach Island, a barrier island off the Jersey shore which we all refer to as "LBI" in this area.

I am totally confused by your post! ..... who is the annoying saleswoman from "A place for moms to call" & what does she have to do with you ordering

I'm sorry and maybe it's just because I've been home sick and I'm really tired from lack of sleep and all the coughing but this reminds me of a high school math question,

"If Car A is going 50 mph in a 35 mph zone and Car B is going 78 in a 65 mph zone and a delivery truck is stopped at a light with both Car A and Car B and they all left their destination at 3:45 p.m. and have travelled 10 miles, how fast was the delivery truck travelling?"
