Big Ole Hairy Black Friday

Yes, it is once again that time of the week that we all look forward to when we can take time to cease the labors for the week and take a little bit of needed time out to enjoy the fruits of those labors. It is once again the dawn of another weekend and a Big Ole Hairy Black Friday!

I hope everyone had a good Turkey day yesterday, I know we had a pretty good time for our first Cassville Firehall Thanksgiving since COVID. Smaller crowd than I anticipated, but this is the first year back and it should grow a little bit by next year. It was good to see everyone at the gathering. 

Today, or last night when it all started, is the busiest shopping day of the year. It's what has been known as Black Friday where stores supposedly put their best deals of the year out and people line up for the stores to open to see if they can grab one of those magical deals. It's been a long time since I went Black Friday shopping, I did it once with Jean trying to buy her a TV and it was a total nightmare. It kind of soured the day a little bit for me to the point I have never gone Black Friday shopping again. I think most people do it all online anymore, to be honest, just too easy and less of a headache. 

I am working both today and tomorrow to make up for yesterday, I'm trying to get all the hours available to me while I can, if you know what I mean. 

Have a great day whatever it is you are doing.

Big Ole Hairy Black Friday

Yes it is once again that time of the week that we all look foreword to, when we can take time to cease the labors for the week and take a little bit of needed time out to enjoy the fruits of those labors. It is once again the dawn of another weekend, and a Big Ole Hairy Black Friday.

Let the madness begin, as if it has not already started last night. This is the biggest shopping day of the year in the United States. Stores offer their black Friday deals as it marks the official start of the Christmas Shopping Season for everyone.

Needless to say that neither Michelle or I will be out participating in that madness. I've went once and she has went a couple of times, but that is about it. It was total mayhem the one time that I went and that was enough for me. Michelle likes to go with her Sisters and they all coordinate as a team, but Dani has to work this year so she did not make it in for Thanksgiving.

Our weekend plans include putting up at the very least, one Christmas Tree tomorrow, other than that once again no big plans this weekend. We'll travel in a couple of weeks for the Ohio Christmas that happens every year, but no major plans until then.

Have yourselves a great day and if you are out shopping, be careful not ton get trampled.

Well last year Michelle did Black Friday shopping, this year however we're both avoiding it like the plague and will both be working today closing out the work week after a great Thanksgiving Day feast with her family yesterday.

There is no more football in Monongalia County this season as Clay Battelle travels to #1 seed St. Mary's tomorrow afternoon. If they win there they advance to the State Championship game in wheeling next weekend. University and Morgantown both have completed their seasons. WVU travels to Iowa State for their last regular season game of the season, they should be getting a bowl invite this year, but that won't be played here in Morgantown.

Going to set my Mom's Christmas Tree up tomorrow afternoon, somewhere between 4:00 and 6:00, this way they can start to enjoy it for the holiday season. Ours may be the following weekend, depending on how Michelle is feeling.

Have a great day, find some good deals and for those of us working today.

Black Friday

That madness that is known as Black Friday Shopping is in full swing. Michelle went last night to some of the earlier sales and made it home before midnight. I did get a chance to speak to my niece Amy and she was out shopping all by herself. I told her Michelle was at the same location as she was last night.

I'm sure as I write this blog the madness is continuing, but I am safe at home and not a part of that madness in any way, size, shape and or form. I came home from a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday with the in laws and started to watch movies. I think I fell asleep during Roadhouse, but I recorded it. Classic movie.

Michelle did find a few bargain items for around the house. I asked her how bad it was last night a couple of minutes ago when she awoke for a middle of the night bathroom run, she said it was a madhouse as I'm sure it is as well right now.

Today's agenda includes us going and getting our Christmas Tree and probably some Sam's Club grocery shopping. It's earlier than we will have ever put up a tree, but we became pretty good at keeping them alive for a month or better inside the house. I think the last two trees we have taken out could have probably been planted into to the ground again and probably would have lived.

Have a great day and stay safe,
