I just realized it’s been a month since my last post but November sure felt like it just whizzed by.  My sister-in-law did the turkey for the first time in her life and she did it (with the help of my hubby here). But I said she should be proud since according to my nephew… she does not cook.  After a day of stuffing ourselves with ham and turkey, here comes black Friday which marks the beginning of the Christmas season. I’ve barely recovered from the last holiday and here comes another one. and yes… we ended up shopping on this day as well… standing in line for an hour and this is just from one store. it’s overwhelming. I thought everyone’s hurting, people are losing jobs, but it didn’t stop people from shopping. it’s still all about the material stuff. In 32 days, we’ll be starting another year.
