Black Friday, the dreaded day. A day that I loathed and loved at the same time....except this year. Because this year, I DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! For the first time in 3 years, I didn't have to work retail during the madness. I QUIT Kohl's a few weeks ago! YIPPEE! With it just being only David to shop for this year, I really didn't have the urge to head out to shop-til-I-dropped and I had him overnight. Plus, I heard that there are better deals to be found as Christmas gets closer.
Thanksgiving Day was spent with David and friends. My coworker/friend, Trina, invited us over to have Thanksgiving with her husband, son and mother. We were treated to a very traditional and DELICIOUS Thanksgiving dinner. After putting David to bed, I zonked out on the couch and slept until almost 8:30 on Black Friday. WAIT! I must back up just a bit...On T-Day morning, I was sound asleep when my phone rang at 5:57am. 5:57AM!!!! It was my sister - in a bit of a panic, I answered the phone b/c why would she be calling so early? Just to talk...UGH! See, she lives in WI which is 2 hours ahead of WA. After speaking with her for a while, I decided I was just up for the day. So, my turkey coma was also induced by a early morning phone call.
After dropping David off to his dad on Friday morning, I decided to head to Fred Meyers for some socks. Our local all-in-one retail store, has a 1/2 price sock sale on BF. I was always working or shopping at other stores during the sale, so I decided to check it out. Many socks later...I was out of the store by 11am and I went home for the day.
Last night, Trina (wingwoman extraordinaire and dd) and I went out to a Hot Flash stoplight party - when you got into the club you choose a glow stick color, Green - single, Yellow - maybe, Red - taken. Dancing, cruising and fun was had! Today was spent recovering. Tomorrow, I must head back to the "real world".
