I actually got to spend time with the family on the day after Thanksgiving! Keep in mind that for the last 21years I have spent the entire day running around like crazy, or being stuck behind the sales counter.
I got to get up late, eat, watch TV, play some World of Warcraft, and yes...I got to go shopping myself. Mary Beth and I hit the streets in search of presents for the kids. And we did well. Can't discuss it of course but rest assured they will be pretty happy Christmas morning.
How nice it was to go to a store that had plenty of the advertised items. How nice it was to get miffed at all the pushy customers without having to put on the "Happy Face". Heck, it was even fun going to Kroger's for groceries.
I could get used to this.
