Hit By A Deer

On Saturday night, Kyle and I were out shopping.  On the way home we got hit by a deer. Yep, that's right, we didn't hit a deer, the deer hit us.  We are okay, but the truck isn't.  Kyle refers to the deer as Bambi's daddy on steroids.  I think he is right.  That deer was huge.

Here is the truck:

We thought we would have to call to have him picked up out of the road.  Kyle looked for him, but there were some woods close by that he ran into.  He was so big, maybe all he got was a bloody nose.  I am just glad we were in the truck.  It would have totaled my car.  I am also glad Kyle was driving, because I would have slammed my brakes.  Kyle sped up which was good,  otherwise the deer would have gone through the window.  Kyle's truck (which the kids call his baby) is now off to be repaired.

My Love of Online Shopping

I love online shopping.  No crowds and I can shop in my pj's. Seeing the story on the news of the crazy lady that pepper sprayed people in line at Walmart so she could get the XBox she had been waiting in line for, further made me appreciate online shopping. People are crazy out there!  I just don't have the patience for it.  It totally ruins the loving peacefully feeling that comes with Christmas.

 One of my favorites is Amazon.  The customer service is great, they have great prices, a huge selection, and I usually don't have to pay shipping thanks to super saver shipping.

Everybody else can have all the Black Friday they want.  I want no part of it.  All though I have to say I am not really a fan of Cyber Monday either.  The sites crash.  I like to shop in that little window of time (after all the crazy) when online retailers (Amazon) offer better deals and free shipping.

Just my thoughts as this is my life right now. (Christmas shopping in December)  One day I will be done with shopping before Thanksgiving.  Until then, I am thankful I can shop online.
