Heading out to the stores this morning. I want to pick up some Christmas clearance items, like wrapping paper and gift tags. If they have any cute Christmas tree decorations, I might get a few of those. Its nice to pay 20 cents on the dollar for things that are definitely going to be put to use. I just have to front the money now and be willing to store the items for 11 months. So, hope the crowds are too bad and I can score some good deals.

Burgers and Fries

Who decided that hamburgers should be served with french fires? Why did french fries become the standard side? Why not potato salad? Or potato chips? Or a piece of fruit? I have to stop eating french fries because they are fattening and have a lot of cholesterol. Do you have any idea how hard it is to order food at a drive through and not get french fries with your order?
Have you shopped for wrapping paper lately? I am used to buying a big roll that lasts a long time for just a couple of dollars. Well, let me warn you. That’s not how it is any longer! The rolls only have a couple of feet on them – you can barely wrap one large gift with it. And it costs almost$5 for the small generic brand rolls. If you go to Hallmark and buy the nice stuff it is $10 a roll. That’s getting expensive for something that looks nice for just a few hours then gets torn up and thrown out with the trash!
Anything Good?

So by now just about all the TV shows for this new season have had their big premieres. What are you watching now? I don’t know that i like many of them. Why has TV gone to hell? It used to be any night of the week you could flip through channels and find something worth watching. Nowadays there are nights when its not worth even turning the TV on in the first place.
