Middle America's Worldview

It's been awhile since I blogged. I better provide an update to my 5 readers. (smile)

Basically, we arrived home last Tuesday. Kel snagged a virus on the way home. She was pretty sick the better part of last week up to Sunday.

Our daughter got ahold of it late Saturday night. But it seems hers lasted 24 hours only, fortunately.

I worked for Pepsi for about 5 hours on Thanksgiving. I only had to babysit Walmart, and it was pretty much dead. For the most part, there were more Walmart employees than customers.

Friday morning we braved and survived the Black Friday sales. I took the kids with me, since Kel was grabbing the kids Christmas specials.

The kids and I hit only two places. All four of us were back home by 7 a.m. local time. The kids and I hit Walmart first then Best Buy. We were through the lines 26 minutes flat at Walmart. It was a first time record. Best Buy was a madhouse. We were in lines for an hour(the short line at that).

All in all, there really wasnt that many sales out this year, in my opinion. Nothing jumped out to us as a really good deal.

I worked my part time this weekend as well. Saturday, Kmart had a sale on 12 packs, 5 for $10. I was pulling 12 packs all day. More than once, I had simply transferred the soda from my cart to the customers shopping cart. Sunday wasn't as bad, since the ad was only for one day.

Monday- What can I say? It was Monday. Kel and our girl went to a Cheetah girl concert in Tulsa. That left the boy and I bach-ing it alone in the home. After speech we grabbed a cheese pizza on the way home. We played PS2 Lego Star Wars and then crashed watching Xiolin Showdown. I had a good time with him.
