Any Chance She Meant Grinch

We bought her a car. Thanks.
We paid for her gas for a year. All right.
We paid for her car insurance. Okay.
We said we were not decorating for Christmas.

She called us mean.
She called us a pair of Scrooges.
She posted a photo of us on her social media page
With our faces crossed with X’s.

She called my husband a “scrooge”.
On social media.
Any possibility she meant to call him a
Grinch instead?

I know what my parent's would have done...but, today people raise their children with everything. No wonder no one knows the value of money, anymore.
