Who Needs'em

For a year.........
  ............ I'm boycotting Sears, Walmart, Target & KMart  .  And I'm doing this because they opened on Thanksgiving Day.  There are many who feel it's the present day destruction of the family and America.  You can dress it up and parade it around and it's none other than old fashioned GREED.

 But what if the majority figured out by buying from those stores during both a major American  Holiday,  and  other times as well,  they aren't really adding to the bettering of our society at all. 

Couldn't we  help our country more by heading to our small businesses, the mom and pop stores?
Here is a website of the list to businesses in the USA, it's called, Americans Working-support them, you're supporting America when you do.

You can sit and roll your eyes, call me a loon, say what good will it do---- you're one in a million and that's big business.  You're a fleck.  You're  a bee in a field of daisies.  You're one rolled up piece of paper in a landfill.

BUT  I"M NOT!!!

and.. you have to begin somewhere. 

We have to stand up for the family and  I'm sure gonna try.....

Poor Sam Walton, must be spinning  to China and back and I don't mean from all the out sourcing of our jobs either.

I haven't been to the big Walmart in years only the Neighborhood Market for groceries, but  even that has now come to an end.  I'll only go to Publix,  from now on.

Obviously, corporate made these decisions, and I keep hearing and reading how they justify  it by saying,  there are those who  don't have family, and others need the money, etc.  

What about a day off to celebrate America, however they choose. 

 What about saving energy by not using all that power lighting the stores, air conditioning, heating, gas,  people  going to and from work...etc. 

 Don't even talk to me about going green.  Bull honkey.

If they want to be open, how about opening the doors and celebrating your workers, treating them like they matter, give them a turkey or a ham or feed the hungry.

Boycotting is the only way to make a difference with these big stores who think they own the world.  Sacrifice by not buying that potential land fill item, you might be glad you did.  Do yourself a favor turn off the TV too, they only hammer with things ya don't need, their goal is to make you feel like you can't live another day without....cereal....imagine the guilt when you can't buy the latest electronic device.

There needs to be balance.
All the stores you're seeing are American made products, go to that website you'll be very surprised by what you find.  Don't dawdle do it!

A Long Day Off

Sur-prise sur-prise sur-prise, and not as daft as  Gomer saying it, I might add.

My surprise came by way of not having my head in the clouds as you might think, and instead having them in a book/computer for school.  It was 10 minutes before school was over for the day, being Friday it was more than welcomed.   When Julia, my classmate, came up to me while my ears were jamming to something, and I was trying to keep up and absorb the info for creating your own Contact page, she said, "Have a nice Thanksgiving".  I found that a little odd considering she could have said that on Monday. " But we don't have school next week."

  That got my attention and relief fell all over me.  Whoo hoo!.  I wished her well and others and focused my eyes back to my task to cram in as much as I could.  

What a gift.  My feet are dancing the two step in my mind.  I have needed this break more than you can imagine.  It is awesome learning new things but it is exhausting as well.  Especially since I'm hauling ass to meet a deadline.  (sorry)  And I am at that! 

Not only can I clean, bake, visit and eat Turkey but hopefully accomplish the 3 things I've decided will move me along before school starts.  There is much to be done, and much not to do.

  Today I'm cleaning my house and relaxing too.  It's 3:00 and I'm still in the jammies, windows opened, breeze is luscious flowing through the house and no plans on what's going on in the next moment. 

I"m pleased to inform the rest of the day continued on in the same manner of nothing nothing and more of nothing and a few somethings, with a trip to the store much later and through the take out line.  

That was bliss. 

I'd like to take this time to wish all of you a very

 Happy Thanksgiving.
