\u00a0I drove the mags downtown to the bulk mail facility. \u00a0On the way home, I stopped by the bank to make a deposit, then at the Malabar Road post office to mail the first class subscriptions. \u00a0I picked up paper products at the Big Lots next door. \u00a0I went across the street to Walmart for a few more items. \u00a0Once home, \u00a0I took a lap around the yard to see what plants might benefit the most by some water and set up the sprinkler. \u00a0I swept the fallen oak leaves and twigs off the driveway. \u00a0I came inside and rearranged my office again. \u00a0I&#8217;m always on a quest to have less and less in each room. \u00a0This way also lets me see more of the courtyard just outside the window. \u00a0After I drive JoyBoy to work, I&#8217;ll head over the Home Depot and return a case of caulk. \u00a0I always buy more than enough and return what I don&#8217;t use. \u00a0Or maybe I&#8217;ll save that for tomorrow and just come home and crash out. \u00a0This is my favorite kind of Black Friday. \u00a0 I don&#8217;t need to buy anything. \u00a0I&#8217;m not rushed to get anywhere. \u00a0I don&#8217;t have to do anything I don&#8217;t want to do. \u00a0 Life is good.<\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/how-im-spending-black-friday-2012\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=How I&#8217;m spending Black Friday 2012&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/how-im-spending-black-friday-2012\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/how-im-spending-black-friday-2012\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/how-im-spending-black-friday-2012\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=How%20I&#8217;m%20spending%20Black%20Friday%202012&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/how-im-spending-black-friday-2012\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night after I picked\u00a0Jeremy\u00a0up from work last night, I was wide awake at 2:00am so I finished labelling and stuffing magazines into the mailers for the\u00a0December issue of Horizons. \u00a0 I got them all loaded into my car and then I came inside and prepared the post office paperwork. \u00a0First thing this morning, I [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22260"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22260\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32412,"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22260\/revisions\/32412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
