I hate that name...I know what it means but it does not make me think good thoughts. I went out in the year's past and I decided this year I could do without the crowds. I kept my grandson and his parents went out shopping at 3:00 in the morning....isn't that ridiculous? I don't need anything that bad! I don't care if they were giving things away...I like my nice warm bed too much for that.
Unfortunately, my grandson, (he's 5 years old) did not want to sleep last night. I let him lay down with me so I could calm him down. We watched a little TV and turned off the lights. He finally fell asleep but so did I. He is little squirmer and I got kicked out of bed by him this morning and he wasn't even awake.... I got up and enjoyed some quiet time with a lovely cup of coffee and a good book before the little tornado woke up. Ah, being a grandma...it's so much fun! I love it but I sure like when I can send them home for some quiet time too. Now, back to quilting! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Tomorrow morning, I'm meeting a friend and we're going to a new quilt shop I've never been to...Oh boy, I'm ready for some inspiration...I'll let you know how it goes, til next time....

I'm with you Linda, I don't anything bad enough to go wait in line at 3 am. Isn't it just the best thing being a Grandma? I can't wait to see what you get at the new quilt shop. Have a great day.
Hope the new shop proves inspirational, look forward to seeing what you come home with
My husband and I went out this year on Friday for the first time ever. We both tend to avoid crowds. We did not leave until 8:00am and then it was to Bob Evans for a nice big breakfast. By the time we hit the mall and shops, most of the crazy people (including my daughter who passed us on our way out and her way home) had gone home to go to bed. Wasn't bad at all and we finished nearly every bit of our shopping!
