I don’t mind shopping the day after Thanksgiving.

But not this week. Fall has been too chaotic, the monster has strep, I’m tired…. just don’t wanna do it.

When I do hit the sales, it’s usually after oh… 10Am. Yeah, I might miss the doorbuster sales, but I also miss out on the dangerous, crush everything in your path rush where people are so desperate to save a few dollars, that they trample people.

Hmmmmm… save a few dollars, risk life and limb and the guilt that would follow should somebody get hurt and I’m left to wonder if I contributed to the person’s injury… or…. spend a few extra dollars, still buy more than I need to, shop online and not have to worry that I might have helped out when somebody got hurt in the melee.

Seems like there are more and more reports of injury with each passing year. Rather sad, because is that really what Christmas is about?

Nope. I’ll stay home, make sure my son is feeling better… hopefully we can go see Light Up Louisville Friday night, and if I feel so inclined to do a little shopping? I’ll do it online.

😉

For those that do go out and risk it… stay safe!
