We decided to go over to Sears to look at a couple of "Black Friday" deals that were only available on Saturday morning. Go figure. We stopped at the post office on the way there. The package with our October mail was there. A lot of bills, a $400 refund check, and some magazines.
When we got to the mall, there weren't a lot of people there. Apparently a lot of people were tired out from yesterday. Unfortunately enough people got there before us to sell out of the items that we were looking for. So we decided to walk around the mall. We ended up getting a present for my brother and a couple of things for mother. We also got a really nice toaster oven for us. It was expensive, but really nice.
By the time we were finished a lot more people had showed up. I guess people were recharged by the afternoon.
When we got home I fixed the house number light by putting a new battery in it. It will be several days before I know if the problem was the battery or the solar cells. I also added another stick light to the gate, just because I had it. I finished up by unpacking the train stuff that was in the garage and putting it away in the storage thing I bought at last week's estate sale.
After some surfing and some dinner we went to a neighborhood party. We'd met the people at the last party, so at least we knew someone. We had a great time talking. It was a little cold outside, so everyone would spend some time on the patio and then some time inside to warm up. We stayed until almost 10:30, probably longer than we should have. I hope they do it again.
