4 Day weekend

It feels almost like I have had an entire week off work.  Now I am headed back for 3 days and then get another 4 days off.  Then I am supposed to travel for a week and then come back.  I should find out more about my travel tomorrow or Tuesday.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get everything done but since I have more time off, I will try to fit in those other items that didn’t get done. 

Much to my surprise and probably yours too, I bought a TV.  Got it last night.  It’s made by LG and is a 32 inch LED TV.  I won’t say that I got a great deal but I can say that I have cash to pay for it in full.  I went to Target and came home.  Then did some web research and wound up at Best Buy.  I got no one to help me and I took my sweet time.  I just made the pick on my own.  I’ve always had help when buying a TV but not this time.  I do like it.  Nothing fancy about it just a basic TV.  No internet – no Wi-Fi – no apps. 

My problem came with what to do with the old TV.  It’s in the basement sitting on top of the entertainment center.  It was a heavy damn thing and I almost lost it twice.  I have no idea on what I am going to do with it but right now it’s a dust collector.  Works great, excellent sound but it’s a CRT and no one really wants those.

Friday was a total waste.  I slept most of the day and when I wasn’t sleeping I was watching Netflix.  I saw lots of movies, which was kind of fun.  I didn’t need that much sleep but it was nice not to have a care in the world and just have a day to do what I wanted, with no agenda.

I had some great Chicago Style Pizza from a local place.  It’s the closest thing I will be able to get here that is close to Uno’s, which is my favorite pizza.  They really piled on the cheese and it was just a huge pile of delicious!

I’ve been to the cat food store twice.  They had a Black Friday sale on food but I missed it because I was napping.  Plus I just like to stay home on Black Friday. 

Tomorrow we have Cyber Monday.  I wish that meant we all worked from home.  I would turn my pc on, turn up the volume and go back to bed.  No one would miss me. 

Just like with any time away from work, I wish I had one more day.  It did get to the point where I lost track of which day it was.  Saturday felt like Sunday. 

Turkey Day it’s self was great.  I got plenty of pasta and dressing, which is what I wanted.  Great dessert and enjoyed the time with friends.  We will all get together again next month at Christmas.  No doubt we will be invited for New Years but we typically skip that.  At least we have something to look forward to. 

I’ve got to reboot the machine and get back to laundry.  Plus it’s probably a good idea that I pack my lunch, otherwise I might be going hungry tomorrow.  I did venture to the grocery store by myself this afternoon.  Didn’t get much but dropped $72 – no meat.  It sure doesn’t take much to run up a bill at the grocery store. 

I hope that all is going well for you.  I will talk with you peeps later!
