Sherri got up before me this morning and I found her in the living room humped up over her computer intently studying the page before her. She had found a web site that had all the Black Friday sales at all the stores. I could not believe all that was on there and you could buy any of it and never leave home.
Why in the world would a person want to sit out in the rain and the cold to buy something you could buy on line from the comfort of your home. All the shipping was free if you bought so much. Now that is a no brainner for me.
She had found just about everything she had been looking for in just a matter of hours with no drive time involved. No sore feet no back aches and we did not have to fight for one parking place the whole time! Yes there is a heaven.
Today we are going to make our Thanksgiving dinner. We have a new house guest..Emily Gale...she has a boyfriend that lives down the street from us and she wanted to come see us for the weekend...I say us...well you know what I mean. They have been out on our porch the whole time but it is nice to see her through the windows.
We know we will not see some of the kids for some time when we leave so it is nice to visit with them now. They are all growing up so fast and soon they will have their own life and we will be uninteresting to them. You know Gramps and Grammy are old and don't know anything about living a fun life??? If they only knew!
So we bought us a smoked turkey from Brookshires and all the trimmings for a great meal. We will have a bang up day getting all of it cooked and ready for consumption. I love turkey sandwiches and chips...I guess that is my favorite part of Turkey day.
The sun is just now peaking over the trees. Last night we had a cold front push through and with it came quite a rain storm. I better get up from here and get this day started. Another day God has given me to enjoy here...

Sounds like the best way to shop, we did the Black Friday thing one year and haven't done it since!
We have to make appointments to see ours. We know how you feel. :(
Hi. I'm a little reluctant to put this kind of thing in an open comment so please feel free to delete it.
I notice you have mentioned several times your need to lose a bit of weight. Far be it for me to tell others what to do but I can tell you what is working for me.
I decided to not eat anything with wheat in it because I knew where my downfall lay. I lost 55 pounds in the first six months of this year with little pain. Along the way I discovered a book called Wheat Belly by Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist. My husband read the book and has lost about 18 pound without trying too hard.
The hardest thing for him was what to eat when bread was not on the menu. He discovered antipasto plates with a variety of yummy things from salami to cheese and olives with a few rice crackers works fine.
You might find the book challenges you but there are a few recipes and my son and daughter .... who wouldn't listen to Mum, have read the book and are changing their habits and losing weight.
I love your bit about getting ready to do nothing .... we are working on that art.
Blessings
