From The Mountains, To The Prairies.....


It's President's Day and I have decided to celebrate the day with an activity which is rich in tradition and full of glory. An activity which every red-blooded one of you should move on to show your patriotism and that you are doing your part to stimulate our economy which, if you don't mind me saying, is in the crapper.

SHOPPING!!!!

Yes, that's right, shopping! Hurry, revisit your Sunday paper and scan the Internet for the sales of a lifetime. Don't let this opportunity pass you by. So, put on your walking shoes, grab your wallet and hit the streets to stroll the malls. Do what's right for America, ladies and gentlemen, go shopping! Your country will thank you.

  3. @ Quirky - Yeah, I'm hitting Victoria's Secret today to get some help for my sagging boobs. Gravity is definitely over rated!

  4. Alas, No shopping for me. Not in what I laughing refer to as "the budget." I will be enjoying another round of beat-the- check-to-the-bank, however. Have fun!

    @ Jayne - Good news, the banks are closed today which gives you an extra day!

  7. @ Lazy Pineapple - Any holiday, where employees are paid to stay home, the retail stores tend to take full advantage by offering great sales. Today is no exception.

  15. No shopping for me today... I had to go to work. Oh well... at least that appears to be much safer for me than staying home.

  16. No shopping, still paying off all the Christmas shopping bills. You couldn't get me in a mall this soon after the holiday season, I'm still having nightmares. But have fun doing your patriotic duty!

  17. I detest shopping unless someone else is buying stuff for me. Like a gift... Naw, think I'll just hang around and admire Michelle Obama's arms.

  22. Did you say shopping? Why didn't you tell me you were going shopping, I would have called in sick and gone with you :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. This is the traditional white sale day isn't it? Are you buying sheets and towels too? You are such a patriot!

    ReplyDelete
  24. I went shopping today! I put a bicycle on layaway for spring! YAY! Did my part for the economy!

  25. Must have my clothing fix. Must feed my closet. But, alas, I worked today. When I arrived home, I heard my closet's stomach growling.

  26. I think it's hilarious that we honor our presidents by putting furniture on sale. What an honor!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I hate shopping, yes I am not normal, not sure if it is the people ...no pretty sure it's the people.

    btw we took stuff

  28. Still cracks me up when they combined Washington and Lincolns birthdays together to make Presidents Day. Like we are happy to celebrate all presidents, like the Bush duo and ahh I better not get started. If only the great men who once inhabited the White House, could see us now. I bet if Jefferson were still in, we would have pot legalized and being taxed like hell and no debt and who the hell would want to got war then?

  29. Shoot - I tuned into this a day late - BUT, I went to not one, not two, but three grocery stores yesterday! That should count! :)

  30. Would you or the country just accept a raincheck in the meantime?

  31. Fabulous tradition how did you think of it!?! What better reason to shop than a holiday sale? We have to support this sad economy in it's time of need right?
