We're all different aren't we Ammi, and they are all very materialistic, whereas i'm not, i'm quite happy in my house with my life, i try to keep things as simple as possible, whereas they all work very hard and are entitled to whatever possessions that makes them happy, i just hate feeling inferior, which is why i thought they could come to mine before xmas, i place a higher value on time with my loved ones, days out and holidays over new cars and kitchen refurbs, it's important my time is spent making memories rather than painting and decorating, and i'm quite a spiritual person who loves, angels and crystals and......well.......they think i'm weird
