My opinion

Flowers from my garden.

I might have mentioned this before, but I do not like all the kissing which happens over Christmas and New Year. What is it about everyone who wants to kiss on the lips? I must be a bit of a fuddy-duddy then because I cannot handle it; especially when the family gets together and all the uncles, aunts, grannies, nephews and nieces must all kiss slap bang on the mouth. It is most certainly nothing near a proper kiss, like a first kiss for instance, or a kiss from someone special. This is just pure bad manners in my opinion.

I really prefer the hollywood kiss with a hug and a mock mwah, mwah on each cheek, rather than a sloppy,
kiss. Ugh! Is there something wrong with me? I have no problem with kissing in general, but I would like to be able to decline a kiss from a person who is going to grab me and plant a wet sponge like kiss on my lips.

I may have offended a few people over the holidays because I started turning my face away.

What is your opinion about all this kissing going on?
