Thanks,

Our local library has 8 kindles available for its patrons. The DH and I both got on the waiting list, mainly so I could use one. His number was reached and we picked up the kindle on Sunday afternoon. Now I've got a kindle to read for 2 weeks! So far I'm really loving it, especially the current book I'm reading, My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.
What about you? Do you own a kindle? Or, have you tried someone else's? Would you like to?
I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.
What about you?
There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.
I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.
I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?
So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?

How's the recovery from surgery coming? Hadn't heard from you in a while. Just wondered how you were getting along.

Thanks for befriending this mystery author here as well as elsewhere online!

Read lots of books while you're in recuperation. (including mine!)
Later gator.

I'm a BIG Lewis Grizzard fan. I'm from the Atlanta area, so I'd met him several times. It was a sad day when he died. He was so young. It seems like good people who do good things, die young, and those that need to die, are still taking up space and leading useless lives. I don' t understand the inequity of it.
Keep me apprised. Good luck on the surgery. It's going to take a while for recuperation.
I read when I can grab a few minutes. Takes me a week to read a thick, hard-back, but a paperback gets read faster.

How's that disc (back) problem coming along? How'd the operation go?
By the way, what kind of books do you read? Or do you have time to read?
Charlotte
