Black Friday......shopping weekend.

So how was your Thanksgiving? I hope it was spent with family and friends. We went to some friends house and all I had to take was a ham cheese ball and crackers, I got off easy. So my day was spent relaxing, eating, relaxing, playing games, relaxing and more relaxing LOL

Well can you guess what I did this weekend??? Yep I worked actually I still have to work tomorrow. The parking lots were full, but the stores were not super busy. We had good sales on Friday, but today was slow.
I did run into Wally world for some personal items, tins and some candy and walked right up to the check out no long lines. They were not busy at all. Nothing in those ads caught my eye or called out my name.
BUT
Every year when the new PS2 games come out DH always wants one that is hard to find. I lucked out this year, since he already told me which one he would like I got it asap. How well let me tell you, we opened a new store in Rochester and the only stores in the plaza that are open are us, GNC and Game Stop. So my manager walked into game stop about an hour after they got the game in she had her hot little hands on it for me. Thanks Rita.

Have a super week.

Just a message today.

HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING AND ENJOY THE TIME WITH YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!

SAY A PRAYER FOR THOSE THAT ARE LESS FORTUNATE AND THOSE WHO HAVE FAMILY IN IRAQ.

Another great weekend!

I know the weekend is not over yet, but so far it has been a great one.
I went to a Bazaar today and had a super time, I bought snowmen!! And I know you all guessed that's what I would buy LOL. I bought a very cute snowman stocking hanger that stands on the floor, it hold five stockings. Oh and I also got the cutest snowman briefcase. It is an old case that I would have thrown out or put in a rummage sale for a buck. But not this crafter they painted a very nice snowman scene on it. And I will not tell you what I paid for it. You would faint. I can not believe I spent money for it I could have painted it!!

Also Jayne and I took my 79 yr old Shirley with us, she had the best time, we then took her to JCPenney so she could get herself a few things and she needed to get a gift. Then we went to lunch and took her home, I know she was getting tired but its hard to drop her off and leave, she Thanked us over and over again.

After bringing our goodies home Jayne and I went to the grocery store. EEEK it was a mad house. But at least we do not have to go back to the store until next week.

Tomorrow after the yard work it done, I'm hauling out all the snowmen I have. The poor buggers have been packed away since January. I know they are just calling my name and want out of those totes. I might just count them this year and have a contest to see who can get how many I have. I know it is a lot.

One sad note to report, on the way to the mall from the bazaar, we had seed a terrible accident. Three cars were involved along with the jaws of life. There were car parts scattered every where, I need to watch the news and I'm hoping everyone survived.

one last note, hug someone today and tell them you love them.

Gosh it has been a while

So what the heck should we chat about today? Sometimes I don't know why I blog, it seems like I got to work, come home, have dinner, play on the computer and if I'm in the mood I may create something. I'm a boring homebody.

The holiday's are creeping up on us quite quickly. The last few years we went out to eat, (because the family is so busy with in laws or working) and we gambled a whopping 20 bucks at the casino. This year we have a change of plans and we are going to a friends house for dinner. I'm sure it will be fun and there will only be 5 of us so do you think I can wear my leisure outfit? That's what I planned on staying in all day if I was to be cooking at home LOL. I hope to play some cards....hint hint if you are reading.

Are you going shopping the day after? I of course have to work but then I few times I went in later and stayed late so I could get a few things. It is hard working retail during the holidays when all the sales are out there. And the week after Thanksgiving we have to go to a 5 1/2 work days. UGH I'm not really complaining cause I have always been in retail and I just don't see myself doing any other job.

The weather has been up and down must be that global warming stuff????
Trees are almost bare but the snow can hold off for quite a while, I'm not ready for it.

Since it is Thanksgiving let's say what we are really Thankful for. Me.....I'm Thankful I have a job, I'm healthy, and I have family around me.

What a good week/weekend

I normally complain about work etc....but not this time. I'll leave a nice post LOL.
Well we had tons of trick or treats, close to 200, big, small, tall, short, cute costumes and even no costumes. It was nice to see the little ones enjoying themselves. Our Lucky and Barq's were greeting the kiddies also and it sure tuckered them out.
I had the weekend off and really enjoyed it. We took a road trip to Archivers and I had a small spending spree. They have so much more than we have around here. (something is going on with our LSS, it is really empty) After scrap shopping we went to a market called Papa Joe's. I love markets, they had the best fruit, salsa, brats etc. OH and I bought some delicious bread that had olive oil and seasonings right in the bread, it was so good. On the way to Papa Joe's we saw Linda's new Art Studio called the Loov. Once we were done with the market and putting the cold items on ice, we headed to the Rain Forest Cafe for dinner. We had to go there because I won some gift certificates from work. Had some yummy food.
Now today I just played at my scrap table, I needed to get some prizes and Raks out. I can now say they just need to get to the post office tomorrow. Jayne and I went to the LSS since I had a full punch card to turn in. I only bought two things some Doodle bug glitter and a new cute flowered mat.

The weather was sunny but a little chilly, just needed a long sleeve shirt for my great weekend. So now its off to work tomorrow and the start of a new week. At least we did get an extra hour out of the weekend.
