My first job in life is to constantly moderate what my children hear, see and breath.
I recieved some info about an upcoming movie release and I thought I would share the info.

A couple of you had questions about the whole day after Thanksgiving post.....so here is a little insider info:
The day after is more commonly known in the business world as "BLACK FRIDAY".
You can actually go to www.black-friday.net for a sneak peak of the ads. As of right now most stores have not "released" their ads, but they should soon.
When you go to the site, you can sign up to be on the mailing list and they will e-mail you when new stores post their ad.
-Have fun :)
So, call me crazy, but I am already thinking (planning) my game plan for the day after Thanksgiving. I really do look forward to this day EVERY year.
Tell me.....what is more fun than getting up at the crack of dawn, grabbing some coffee and running around 14 different stores like you are trying to getting away with stealing it all?
I am one of those crazies you read about the day after "the day after"....haha.
Last year I took one of my good girlfriends with me, Denise. She is probably still having nightmares of that morning.......I probably looked like a weirdo with all my newspaper ads in hand, mapping out our game plan like I was looking for buried treasure.
You really have to do your research to be a professional "day after" shopper.
My grandma and mom laugh at me on Thanksgiving. I probably look at the ads atleast 5 times through just to make sure I don't miss anything.
Then you get out your "handy dandy notebook" to map out your plan of attack.
The morning of is like war...get prepared, the ladies (and some gentleman) don't hold back when there are crock pots on sale for $5.00 (haha)
You get your ad, your notebook and you immediately (in sort of a frantically fast walk) make your way back to your item. Grab it as soon as they start cutting the plastic wrap off the pallet and then on to your next item, or straight to the checkout. RESTROOMS ARE NOT IN THE GAME PLAN......YOU HAVE TO HOLD IT IF THAT COMES UP.
Check out.....straight to the car (there are 100 cars circling the parking lot looking for the spot you got because you were there an hour early :)
Speed to stop 2, repeat.
Lunch is only taken after all bargains have been grabbed.
So...anyone wanna go with me?? Haha.....this year will be a blast.
We are in the market this year for a computer and a tv......2 of the biggest items on the "Day after". Not for sure how I am going to get those to my car and keep my plan in-tack.......this may be a crazy year.
I am so excited!!!!!
And I wonder why I can't ever look good enough?? This is just crazy - but oh so true.
And this is what every girl in the world has to deal with. Sad - true - and very scary.
Just thought I would post an update on my grandparents.
Both have had surgeries in the last month.
Mimow is doing GREAT! (she had 1/3 of her colon removed - and it was cancer free)
Papow opted to go with getting his prostate removed (the only sure-fire way to get rid of the cancer) He was released from the hospital yesterday - and is doing great. He will probably be home-bound for the next 2 weeks or so...but he is expected to make a full recovery - and be completly normal.
This is what God can do.....all if this is (their amazing healing/recovery) is a gift from God for thier lifelong commitement to him. I know that God made all of this easy for them because they have lived their lives for him - God takes care of his people - and this is living proof of it.
Thank you Lord.
