On Black Friday, which I’m starting to think is so named because of the window the average person gets into the blackness of the human condition, I’m still able to embrace the things that bring me small bits of grace.  Believe it or not, it’s there!

 

  • A warm cup of Espresso Truffle at Starbucks on a chilly, early, INSANE morning. 
  • The beautiful blush of color that rises on the eastern horizon with the sun in the morning.  I don’t get to see that too often. 
  • That feeling you get when you know you’ve saved money on something you were planning on getting anyhow.  
  • That feeling you get when you know you’re SO CLOSE to being done buying Christmas present for the year.
  • A warm cup of peppermint schanpps-laced hot cocoa and sitting with your feet up after you’ve been out and about all morning long.  Ahhh!

Obviously, we’re not sane. Up at 6, out by 6:30. We’ve caught a couple deals but our inner cheapskates are getting the better of us. Luckily, we’ve already done our big ticket shopping online, so the pressure is off. Still, if I’m not home by noon, send out Search and Rescue.
