The dogs started stirring early this morning - 5:30 am - so I got out of bed, leashed the three up, started walking and said to myself "Well I am up now , maybe I should check out..."

And then my otherwise sane neighbor almost ran the four of us over backing her boat of a car out of her garage...

"...maybe I should get the heck back inside and STAY THERE for the rest of the day."

And that's what I did.

Smart man! Beware of women drivers in ocean liner types of cars that are enroute to Black Friday sales. Could be dangerous to your health. crazy Reminds me of the old cartoon from when I was a kid, The Flintstones, when Wilma and Betty would go to a sale with a bugle horn cry and yelling, "CHARGE it!" biggrin striking fear into Fred and Barney because of the many years of "easy" payments to come. (Did that sound familiar Dr Eric?)

I have to go to Home Depot today to look for a snow blower. It is nowheres near any other shopping traffic so I might be safe. whistle

So? You don't need to have a cdl to know how to drive a truck. Notice I didn't say "drive truck" as in do it for a living.

I went out for a little while, but I ended up not doing a whole lot of shopping. I couldn't find many things that I actually needed. smile
