A Windy Black Friday

Right after we had our Thanksgiving meal, my husband left yesterday to stand watch at work, and he said he'll go straight to check out sales today after he got done with watch.  He said, he was going to the NEX first at 6 this morning because he's been wanting to get the Wii U, I think.  Well, I really haven't heard anything from him yet, so I think he's too busy running around trying to get as much stuff as he can that are on sale right now.  I really have no idea what he has in mind as far as things he wants to buy.  I think he'll go for anything he finds useful.  That's just him.  He may splurge on things sometimes, but he always makes sure his money doesn't go to waste, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, I really didn't get enough sleep last night.  It's been windy here, and when the weather is like this, I get scared.  We've already had a bad experience last year, and I can never imagine going through the same thing again, especially when I was alone with the kids last night.  The wind really picked up that our trash can outside has been knocked down several times.  Our pumpkin decor that was on our patio was blown away and I found it on the ground this morning, a few feet from where it originally was.  So, I just decided to put them away today instead of me going back and forth picking them up every time the wind knocks them down.  Our trash can, well, I still hear it outside as if somebody is dragging it all over our driveway.   But, I'm not going out right now - again - to pick it up.  Me is scared! (Hehehe.)  I'll deal with it again later.

I just hope my husband would come home now.  It's really windy and chilly outside.  I wonder if he's one of those people right now waiting in an almost-no-end line just to get the items they want.  I've read some people posted about how they had to give up shopping today because of how crazy it was in the stores with all the shoppers.  Indeed, Black Friday can save you a lot of money.  But if you're not patient enough to stand in line for hours under the cold weather, you won't get anything.  Some people take it way too serious that they sacrifice time being away from their families on Thanksgiving (some people would camp out outside the stores, even on Thanksgiving Day, just to get into the store the minute they open.)

Looking outside right now, I can only imagine how long people can last being out in this cold and windy weather.  I really sometimes don't get why they go to the extreme on Black Friday.  Cheap prices on real cool items, yes, I get that.  But I don't think those material things are all worth it.  Just my opinion.  I mean, it's not like those stores don't have any other sales going on all year round.

Right now, I don't see myself going crazy over Black Friday.  I may try and go out to shop, but once it gets out of hand, I'm out!  (Hahaha)

And, I bet my husband has a lot of stories to tell about his day the minute he gets home.  I can't wait to see him!  I miss  him badly!  I haven't seen him in like a day now!
