I shopped until I almost dropped!!!!

Well every year the day after Thanksgiving my friend and I have gone shopping. This is our 18th year. DeAnn picked me up this year at 3:10 a.m., so we could get to Younkers when they opened at 4. We didn't see alot of special in the ads, but we talked about how the specials seem to be less every year, but it's just our tradition to go and be part of the crazy rush. Our longest wait in line was....yes good Ol Menards. Yes, no one can say we don't think of our husbands on this crazy day. Menards is probably the craziest store/and shoppers that we see on this day. We went to Carlos O'Kelly's at 10:30 am (Carlos opens early) and had dinner with a Strawberry Margarita which actually comatose me. Im not sure if it was because lack of sleep or to early in the morning for the Margarita?! We of course continued with our shopping and made it home around 4 pm. I got all items that I purchased divided up and put away. Scott and the kids went to his mom and Geralds for the day. I layed on the couch thinking I would take a nap, but oh my goodness my leg muscles were just pounding from all the walking I had done. I laughed to myself, because I felt that day my shopping spirit was showing old age syndrome. I look forward to this day every year and will continue until the good lord has different plans!
