Happy Day Before the Crazies Attack The Retail Stores!!!

Yes!  It is that time of year again!  Time to rush out and, um, see your relatives... Yeah, that's it!  We won't mention that they happen to live not far from a Target store.  Do I think the workers should be at home with their loved ones, yes, I honestly do.  Do I need a vacuum (3rd one this year), yes, I do.  Can I afford to continue to buy them at a full price, no.  Seventy dollars or twenty-five?  hmmm.  I would rather they did it on Friday which, as the name implies, would make sense.  

To be truthful, I am more than likely going to pass this year.  Ten degrees is not exactly my idea of a fun time of it.  Last year I went by myself which was also no fun, but I only needed two items and got them both.

When did the greed factor become so high that businesses take people from their families on a day they should be able to stay with the ones they are thankful for?  Everything would still sell just as well on Friday as it does on Thursday.  

I have put out links to my children's book for anyone that is interested.  If you live nearby or even wish to mail me the book to sign any copies and personalize them, I would be more than happy to do so.  

And no, no writing today.  My daughter is still recovering but, as of yesterday is back home at her apartment with her little one.  Once the chaos has died down and the routine of the boys' is back, we should be good to go.  Weekly trips to Omaha are still there, but not as bad as they were.

So, I am now getting good sleep, eating better and am de-stressing, so prepare yourselves for an onslaught of questions and idea requests!!  lol!!

Question of the day - What are your thoughts on 'Grey Thursday'?

Have wonderful dreams, amazing rest and wake with a smile on your lips.  Good night!
