Or strip mall. You couldn’t pay me to get in that melee. If I find a few bargains online, I might get something for my grandkids. But mostly I will cook for my husband and myself and see if I can study the back of my eyelids for a while.

Wouldn't catch me dead out on the days after Tday.
No Xmas tree this year because of the shortage due to fires, so we'll plant some instead. We'll probably make things this year instead of buying for the most part.

Then going to the dealership to purchase another car before my rental expires. Not what I wanted to be doing, but life happens and you deal with it.
