Twas the day after Thanksgiving, and all through the house,
People were still sleeping; it was quiet as a mouse.
Julie & Jim had gone shopping at the first break of dawn,
And at every store they passed, all the parking was gone.

Today is Black Friday and there are shopping deals galore,
If you don't mind being trampled as you squeeze through the door.
So they went straight to their destination, and picked up their prize,
They stopped and bought donuts that will increase my size.

So now they are home resting, and with the pups snuggled up.
And I'm in the sun porch having my third cup.
Ms. Kate's at the computer playing bingo and such,
And lfe is just perfect because we're each loved very much.

As you can tell, among my array of talents that I am blessed to have, being a poet is not one of them.

And a good morning to you! It is a beautiful day out side even though it is only 32°.. the sun is shining brightly without a cloud in the sky. I'm quite sure it will brighten the spirits of all those people that are out trying to get in on all of the great deals that the stores are offering today. I tbought we were going to stay out of all of that but Ms. Kate says she wants to go out after while, when the mad rush is gone down and pick up a couple of things. So what the heck,

Well, that's my tail for today. I hope your day is a blessed one.
