Black Friday Thoughts

I thought this was funny, but true. Enjoy and be safe out there!!

               With the kids all nestled snug in their beds
                 And visions of Christmas dancing in their heads
 
 
 
                   Their tummys full of turkey and Pumpkin pie
 
                   Mom's in the kitchen with a gleam in her eye
 
 
 
                    She's got her list, she's checked it twice 
 
                    Each sale mapped out it has to be precise
 
 
 
                   Her car is gassed up,and she's ready to go
 
                   Yelling at the drivers who are going to slow
 
 
 
                 For this is the night of the big shopping game
 
                  Waving her ads she calls them each by name
 
 
 
 
                                  On Target,and Kohls
 
                             Macy's and Bloomingdale's 
 
                             On Wal-Mart,and Best Buy
 
                            Old Navy,Abercrombie & Fitch
 
                           On Walgreens and Jcpenney
 
                             And all the stores in between
 
                          The mall is packed, it's quite a seen
 
 
 
                   When the clock strike's ten the big sale will start
 
                   And don't forget the blue light sale over at K-Mart
 
 
 
                Mom's giddy from the savings she's getting at the mall
 
               Stepping on the escalator she nearly takes a fall
 
 
 
                         Mom dashes to the left and then to the right
 
                         And now Barnes & noble is finally in her site
 
 
 
                             Ten percent off if you buy at least eight
 
                              The savings in the air,man this is great
 
 
 
                       Twinkling lights,stockings and handbags galore
 
                    Watch out for the old lady who collapsed on the floor
 
 
 
                   The tension is rising as the cashiers look on in fright
 
                    For Black Friday now begins on Thanksgiving night

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
