Black Friday

The Day-After Thanksgiving...

4:00 am.

We found our spot in front of Target at 4:00 am.

We were 14th & 15th in line.. a lil further back

than last year.. but we got the goods.

This year was a breeze compared to past

years. No gloves, blankets or heavy coats needed.

We managed to get in line behind the same man from

last year. He remembered us and also

remembered Ashley getting to

the electronics department way

ahead of everyone else too.

"She's A Champ"

Those lil legs can move!

I could never clear my list without her.

This is only my 5th year getting to shop on

Black Friday.. and the last

3 years I've made it a

"Just Me & Her" deal.

For 22 years I was a Jeweler and

worked retail.. So you know I

really hated this day lol.

The holidays were always a blur.. and I

was always to tired to enjoy them.

Soooooooo ..

The November that Matthew died I decided I'd had

enough of all that and I took that season off..

and ain't been back since.
