Shopping season, that is. In my circle of friends, we're shopping for Giftmas, because the holiday seems to be more about consumerism than anything else.
Did I go out on Black Friday? You bet I did! But I went out to buy my own present, a half-price dressform from JoAnn Fabrics. Rich went with me, and we waited in line for about fifteen minutes before they opened the doors and let us in out of the cold. As we filed in, an employee handed each person a pair of scissors - our gift from JoAnn.
