In the West we call it, "Happy Tofukery Day" or "Happy Salmon Day!" Doug and I started our Thanksgiving with a 7.5 mile run, a lunch of salmon, stuffed mushrooms and squash...oh wait, wine! Doug worked on some homework and I read a book (that's right!). By mid evening we were ready to get out, but had no where to go so we just drove around!
Black Friday (today) we got up at 4:15am and joined the other couple hundred of frozen westerners standing outside of Best Buy. This was Doug's first Black Friday event, and I was proud to be the one dragging him out so early...only he was the reason we were going out! We set our site on a 32" flat screen the night before...and to our delight we came home with a new addition!
We worked a couple of hours in the early morning, raced back home and geared up for our next adventure! We road the "Metro" (bus) into Bellevue to shop some more! Bellevue is a nice little neighboring town, that reminds me of a mini downtown Seattle. Just a few people to shop for so we quickly found ourselves wondering around...but neither wanted to go home!
I think we are both ready for some "boy time" and some "girl time"...but he's been a trouper! Pray for friends to appear soon!
Anyways, hope everyone is well...see you all very soon!
the good, the bad, the ugly...

My world was forever changed on 8/20/09. Every day I learn something new about myself and living my new life. Now, I am a mother and a kick ass one at that. Some days I am sane... and other days I sport a neon pink straight jacket! Here is my life because it makes me feel normal to share. And maybe my over dramatized & crazy stories, my hippie-vogue style & way of life, will give you joy, hope, inspiration or simply... laughs!
