Yay! It is BLACK FRIDAY! You want
to know the best part? I'm here at home with my girls. Normally I would be
getting right to my projects, organizing m'inion with crafts and utilizing this
day to its fullest but I fear I have a turkey induced coma.
It managed to hang on through the
night and seems to be lasting the better part of the day. We had a wonderful
Thanksgiving spent with family, friends and yes indeed even some complete
strangers. The day was filled with shooting, horses, cards, good conversation
and more food than two dozen plus people could eat in a week yet alone an
afternoon. It was a good day indeed.
It appears from the replies to
the "self sufficiency during the holidays" blog post that many of you
are of like mind and are also bringing self sufficiency into the holidays. It
helps to know that we are not alone; no matter what the personal motivations
are. I hope you are enjoying this day of national madness in a way that makes
you feel blissfully relaxed. For all my
friends who are participating in the shopping craziness; I hope you find what
you went out for and stay safe. Rumor has it that the deals aren't that great
and not as many folks intended to go out and shop today. Truly, I'm just glad
to have discovered that we aren't the only "fruitcakes" embracing a
less commercial attitude about the holidays. Bonus is At this point it looks
like most of our family has hopped on board for the fifty-fifty rule and plans
to try to do as little brand new big box or chain store shopping as possible.
