Are we there yet?

My favorite day in November…

November 20, 2007 · 4 Comments

is black friday!  C’mon, you surely saw that one coming!  This year Kohl’s opens at 4 am, and I am beeeeyond excited.  Yes, that probably makes me crazy.  However, it’s fun to stand and freeze at three am outside of a department store while sipping a cup of coffee and shivering next to your mom, friend, husband, etc.  Didn’t you know?  It’s tradition for me to snag a Starbucks as soon as they open as well.  That’s just one more reason to love the day!

Last year I was sick, but the year before that I was beyond organized.  We all went through the fliers and check out what we all wanted to snag.  Mom and I holed ourselves up in the office, and I created a spreadsheet.  It had the store at the top and the time they opened, and when door busters ended.  The sheet also contained the items from that store we wanted, how many, how much it costs, and who it was for.  Each store had its own sheet.  Oh, and at the bottom was a time for how long we had in that store before we needed to make it to the next as to not miss their door busters!  Yep, I know…

Sooooo, while I will enjoy the family gathering of gluttony, and I’m looking forward to our family portraits on Saturday, I’m really excited about Friday!
