Recovery from the weekend.

That pretty much sums up my day. I hope all of you had a safe and happy Thanksgiving weekend. I hope that you didn't get hurt trying to cash in on one of those Black Friday sales. I know I didn't.

I spent Friday driving to my hubby's apartment and then setting it up for him. It looked like a really bad college student room. You know an air mattress in the middle of the floor with a box as a night stand. It all looked a little sad. Well, now he is set up in style.
The rest of the weekend was spent shopping and just hanging out. We drove home yesterday and to say that the traffic was terrible was an understatement. It was crazy. I can't remember the last time I went out of town for Thanksgiving so I am not accustom to the jammed interstate highways.

Another thing I haven't ever been big on is going shopping at 5 am on Black Friday. I worked enough of those days during my years in the retail world and it is not worth it to me. We went shopping on Saturday and the crowds weren't really that bad. I even tried on clothes at the mall and that wouldn't have happened if it was crowded, I don't like to wait for a dressing room.

Anywho, today was spent in recovery. You know the drill. Wash the mound of clothes everyone brought back from the trip, while thinking that there is no way you took this many clothes with you in the first place. Clean the house yet again. Go to the grocery since you didn't buy much before you went away.

School was also a new idea to our systems. Last week I finally just gave up and decided to start fresh today. We did start fresh and were able to actually complete a full school day. It felt kind of weird to actually complete everything. And now that the YMCA is out for December we can do a full school day everyday. I hope to get caught up in some areas I feel we are behind in.

All in all it was a productive but exhausting day. To bed for me.
