BLACK FRIDAY??

Black Friday today? I thought Black Friday was last Friday. You talk about BLACK! Last Friday was my Black Friday. Let me walk you through a real Black Friday.

You remember that last Thursday I posted about the hole for the septic tank and me wanting to jump in. That was Thursday. This was the next day, Friday. Oh, did I mention it was a BLACK FRIDAY?

5:30 AM - Get up. We always get up during the week at 5:30. I'm one of those old-fashioned wives that gets up with her husband and makes him breakfast. I even take coffee to him while he's shaving. I pack his lunch. (If you must know, the real reason I do this is not out of the goodness of my heart......I'm trying my best to make the next wife's life miserable. Let her try to top this!)

10:00 AM - Go back to bed. Can't go to sleep so I get up at noon.

12:00 Noon - Eat lunch.

1:00 PM - Go back to bed. This time I sleep.

2:30 PM - Get up. Get out of my jammies and take a shower.

6:30 PM - Serve Tex a dinner that included yummy, home-made mac and cheese. (Just another attempt at making the next wife look inferior.)

7:45 PM - Am back in bed in my jammies again. I read until 8:15 and then turn out the light and drift off to a land where they don't build houses and dig holes for septic tanks.


So, there you have it. A real Black Friday. I am happy to annouce that I have fully recovered from my funk.......sort of. Now I'm nervous about the color of the stain. Is it too dark? Will the paint colors I've chosen look good? Maybe I should have waited to get the furniture after the house is finished.

I'm pretty sure the next wife is going to be Calm, Cool Cathy. Tex might just be getting a little fed up with the spouse he's got right now.
