Friday, December 1st. there are 23 shopping days left until Christmas. IF you live in Minnesota, that is. if you are in utah, the whole place shuts down on Sundays. I guess joseph smith once said "don't spend money on Sunday". so now, no one does. at least not in the places that are CLOSED - which is a lot. every fun family thing you COULD do, you CAN'T. They lock it up and hide the key. I can't count the number of times we have wanted to do wsomething fun with our kids, and we arrived only to find the place dark and boarded up, with large chains and padlocks hanging on all of the doors. and - BIG signs everywhere:
"CLOSED. SO WE CAN GET TO HEAVEN"
I am quite sure that in actuality, the Sabbath is on Saturday. Therefore, they should close things on THAT day, so that moms can tell their kids "you have to clean the house. there is nothing open, anyway." oh well.
the time has come to go pick up kids...fridays are always a little goofy, as they GO to school at 8, Emme is done at 10, and the rest finish at 1. I may as well set up a little couch and table with a cute lamp in one of the classrooms, then I could avoid all of that driving. next year will be so nice!! okay. more later.
