What a productive, fun day!!!    The weather was icky-poo - blustery winds, rainy and dreary!    Anne and I met at Bergners' at 7:30 and with our Starbucks treats and coupon books in hand, we took off and both of us had very good luck with our shopping!    Today was the Community Day coupon sale and all the $ collected by the various churches, schools, civic organizations (my Exchange club was involved in this) goes directly back to the group selling and makes for a profitble fundraiser.    It's a win-win situation for all - our group got $5 for each coupon book sold and we shoppers got the bargains!!!

Spent the afternoon/evening digging out the Christmas decorations (I have sooooooooooo much stuff) and you probably think I'm crazy, but since we won't be here for Thanksgiving and it takes me several days, decided to get an early start and it will be done when we return from North Carolina on the 29th!   I am scaling down this year; but still takes TIME.    It's fun to sort thru all the treasures and memories of Christmases past.  No lights get turned on.....made good headway today but winding down!    Three days of shopping and then sprucing up the house with holiday decor wears a girl out!!!

Hope your weekend is going well!
