Black Friday is BIG in the states, Canadian retailers are beginning to start their own Black Friday sales. I stay away from places when there are sales on like that...too crazy!  And there is nothing that I really need.  I've got it all.  Talking to my sister this weekend, she says the economy it is still very bad where she is.  The economy is busting.  I certainly have been doing my part to keep the economy running.  A machine, all sorts of feet, fabric ...and now Christmas is coming... I haven't got a clue as to what I can get for  "Thing One" and "Thing Two".  I know what they want, but that is pie in the sky...I want a new van, but that ain't happenin' either
