    Stay off the roads as much as possible.
    If you must drive, stay sober and drug-free, and take precautions against others on the road being out of from drugs, overtiredness or frayed emotions.

    Try to be as tolerant and gentle as possible if visiting or entertaining relatives in families troubled by a lot of anger.

      Capitalize the first word of every written sentence. Always.

    What about capitalizing a word that should have been grammatically connected to the previous sentence with a dash or a comma?

      Sentence means sentence. Each new sentence starts with its first word being capitalized. Punctuation within a sentence is a different story, as evidenced by the comma that I just used.

    So how do you categorize the word "Already" in your answer?

      I didn't use that word at all. The punctuation that appears before the word "always" is a period, indicating that the previous sentence ended, therefore, the next sentence's first word is capitalized. 
      When you ask of categorization, I guess the answer you're seeking is that it's a separate sentence.

    I guess my point is that a period does not assure that the next single word is a sentence rather than a sentence fragment.

    Get along with your family and enjoy them as much as possible while they are still around.

    If you're driving long distance, schedule rest breaks. I mean it. Overtiredness has been proven to be as detrimental to driving as alcohol.

    Stay away from retail stores and restaurants. Those folks need time off too and if people weren't shopping or eating out, they could be home as well.

    Many retail stores do most of their yearly business around Christmas.  Many retail workers like the additional money they may have an opportunity to earn around the holidays.

    Are you suggesting they would prefer to be closed or sitting at home than working?

    Do not buy anyone a gift until you see if they give you one first.

  • we love a petty queen 

    last year my cousin noticed a designer scarf i was wearing and mentioned she would like one for christmas, so i bought her one, but as soon as she came to my house empty handed i put it back in the bag with the receipt and returned it 

    i like buying and giving gifts but dont be so entitled to think you dont owe me anything in exchange
