BLACKFRIDAY

I'm not a big fan of Black Friday but I did my daughter duty and helped my mom and dad at Target last night at 9pm. I'm so pleased with my experience, because it was super easy to get inside and the crazies didn't show up.  What did my family buy? My dad begged me to grab a 32 inch flat screen.

I just wanted to snag a few sweaters  and a new blender. I'm not a big fan for electronics and couldn't comprehend why people waited so long in the line for iPhones and iPads. My mom grabbed up a few house appliances for my brother, that is moving out next month. He was quite happy that we did this favor for him, while he sat in outside in front of a sporting goods store. They gave out free food and coffee! How sweet for the those poor souls standing out all night.

I had a good night's sleep and I woke up at 7 and went off to buy a few more things at the mall.
I went to JC Penny's, and Express. We were in and out by 11:30  and went home to watch Husker College Football. Now I'm all bundled up in sweats. It's quite frigid and I don't want to leave my house! Time to spend the night with a little reading material and a cup of hot cocoa.

Also so many thanks and hugs to everyone!

Being Thankful

The year is almost done and it's going to be such an excited time. I have so many plans for 2012. But right now, I've been reflecting on all that has happen this year.

Things I'm Thankful...

1. . Family. This whole week my brother from the Marine Corps is visiting before setting sail across the Pacific. I wish my brother best. He's so warm and kind. I hope he comes home safe.

2. Black Friday sales. It's time to suck it up and try to find the best deals around the city. Most stores are crazy, but I'm really love going to small locally own stores. Support Local Saturday this weekend while visiting the family. Besides, I go to the mall and want to leave after one hour. Too many crazies!

3. Holidays. I'm such a sucker for the winter festival's in my hometown. The downtown area is all lit up all night long. It looks so magical. I must take pictures this year. Also I enjoy Starbuck's holiday treats. I wish I could treat more

4.Recently received an honors award from the university. It was such a lovely evening with my peers. I was so excited to received it after working so hard all year.

I'm thankful to be able to express myself. Also for all the thoughtful and clever comments. I  Love all my readers! Thank you all so much!

Have a spectacular Thanksgiving.
