Another strange thing about Florida is the weather. When I was in Indiana, on Thursday, you rush to the Weather Channel to see what weather the up coming weekend is going to be. And in Florida, you already know. Monday, sun and breezy, Tuesday, sun and breezy, Wednesday, sun and breezy, etc, etc, etc. Now is that boring or heaven? Just know Saturday and Sunday are replicas of the rest of the week.
Thanksgiving was a quiet affair here. And I missed the noise and commotion of lots of family around. Being of sound mind, I did not venture out to the stores on Black Friday. At noon in Tampa, the TV was showing the malls and there were lots of parking places and no waiting in lines. Perhaps it was not as successful as hoped. I think at noon, everyone was home taking a nap as alot of the stores opened at 4am. One store here opened at midnight.
Maya Angelou once said, "I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage and tangled Christmas tree lights" I know we will all be facing that in the next few days. Unless you all did what I did a few years back and bought a tree with lights already on it. That, by golly, it the better mouse trap!!!!!!
As you probably noticed, I love quotes. And frequently use them. Hollywood Square Wisdom: When Charley Weaver was asked "If you are going to make a parachute jump, at least how high shoud you be?" He responed, "Three days of steady drinking should do it"
