Your Eyes Should Be Brown |
Your eyes reflect: Depth and wisdom What’s hidden behind your eyes: A tender heart |
Luckily my eyes are Brown.
So as I work retail, people keep asking me if I am dreading Friday. The day after Thanksgiving, the busiest shopping day of the year, Black Friday….dumdum. And the answer is no. I actually never minded working it, when I had to, and even when I worked the mall. Yes, it is busy, yes people are nuts, but, you are so busy the time flies, all shops are prepped so all cashiers are on, all the stock is up to date, and it feels good to sell the weird odd things you have been waiting to sell all year actually sell. Little 5 Points is not so bad, but we are busy enough, and it is ok.
So I am cooking Thanksgiving Day for my sister and I, and whoever wants to come over and say hi, it is going to be relaxed and laidback. I believe teka is bringing his fabulous butternut squash soup over, and my sister is bringing the Champagne and starters, I am doing a roast chicken and potatoes and squash and molten chocolate cakes. So drop me a line if you feel like dropping by.
I like Thanksgiving, I have never dreaded it, or worried about spending it with people I don’t want to, I suppose I made that rule years and years ago, that I would never spend time with people I did not want to, on holidays. Even Christmas, every year I see my Dads’ ex-wife and it is 30 to 40 mins with her and I am ok with that, any longer would make me unhappy, and I am not prepared to sacrifice my happiness like that.
