My husband and I went to the
mall to look around before Black Friday. I almost never go to the mall. I much
prefer shopping online and getting boxes (presents) delivered to my door! But,
sometimes we need to actually go somewhere, in our case, to get our rings
cleaned and see what was there.
We parked with ease, walked
around without bumping into anyone and actually found presents for two
people. It was a successful visit. And, as a bonus, we got some exercise
walking the length of the mall on two floors.
I never understood the appeal to
go shopping. That’s not really my idea of fun. I like walking with my dog,
smelling flowers along the way, looking at the clouds and the light coming
through them and anything out in nature. I love feeling the wind and am really
enjoying some cooler weather for a change!
The crazy people are coming
though. They camp out in front of stores and wait all night to be the first
ones in the door! Why? I’d much rather sleep in my own bed, warm, safe and be
with friends and family on Thanksgiving weekend. There will always be another
sale or discount later. Actually, the best time to go shopping is After the holidays in January when
everything is on sale. I buy stuff all year long and save it in the “gift
closet” for when I need something for someone. Or, I find the perfect present
for someone and save it for them for the holidays and/or birthdays. Who wants
to deal with all those crowds?! Not me!
