Sooo – there’s something wrong with being content and not wanting for anything? Maybe his daughter’s taste in mens’ shirts is what keeps them in a dresser drawer (she may have inherited that from Opal).
I really hate it when old relatives pull that stunt. The younger generations WANT to get you something, and WANT to spend time with you. Just tell us what you would like, no matter how silly you may think it is, and enjoy it for once!

Who cares what these people think about us old folks, they do not know what is in our hearts.
