I have a few people that act snarky in my life….for some reason half of them came out today. Ugh.
How was everyone’s Thanksgiving?
Mine was pretty great….after dinner there was a dart tournament and my brother won…because he plays darts all of the time.
Today I finally got to experience “Black Friday” from the other side of the counter.  I took my mom and we went to Wal-mart at 5 this morning, got everything we needed.  Then we went to Menard’s, Fleet Farm and Shop Ko.  Ended up spending a ton of money that I don’t even have, but it was good stuff.   After we went antiquing in Red Wing and Hastings.
Antiquing is the greatest thing ever.  Every store has something different.  I originally got into it helping my mother look for Fenton Glass shoes and now I’ve started my own collection:
When you go to some antique stores, you can usually find old photographs for fairly cheap.  The three I bought today were each less than two dollars.  I always look at them and find them extremely intriguing.  I wonder what they did for a living, where they lived and what their story was.  So this is my antique collection. Check out the other two at my Flickr account:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/sweetem0kid .   If anyone has tips on where I can pick these up for relatively cheap, let me know!!
