I'm a Cosmetologist and do a few of my family members hair,etc. Now mind you my DH is self employed and I work part-time as a secretay-PA. We do not make a lot of money. We actually lived in a camper for 2.5 years when we were first married, then purchased 11.5 acres, and a 30 yo mobile home to put on it till we paid off land for 5 years. And about 2 years ago we were finally able to build our small home ( Dad always said you had to crawl before you could walk). Nothing fancy about our home, just plain Cape Cod, no brick, just vinyl etc...Our vehicles, one 97 model car and another 99 model truck. Anyhoo my cousin just goes on and on when I do her hair about how much money her fiance makes, their nice home, nice cars, how extravagant their wedding is going to be, how all the girls just love her son, how her daughter has to look so-so, how much her ring cost, and blah blah, blah blaaaah, and more , more, more. I stand behind her rolling my eyes it drives me crazy
. I so could care less, I am not a materialistic person and she knows it. So I can't seem to understand why in the world she goes on and on about having and expensive trips, as if she has to prove something to me
, I really am thinking about not doing her hair anymore. I just don't get it. Anyone?
