Hey, It's Okay....
.....to have had a lovely Thanksgiving. My husband was off work, so we went to my parents' house to celebrate. How was yours if you celebrate?
.....to have not gone out on Black Friday. Well. Not early, but my daughter and I did go out around lunch time. We earned that 20% off coupon at Target for spending over $50.
....to be glad I'm not the only one without a Pinterest tree.
....to have not bought much on Cyber Monday. I didn't find amazing deals. I did get a few video games for my son that were slightly cheaper, but that's about it.
....to have decorated the outside of the house. I only cursed twice!
....to have watched my husband graduate another flight. He's a MTI in the Air Force and loves what he does.

The cyber Monday deals weren’t very good this year! Blahhh
ReplyDeleteI agree about the cyber monday deals there were some good ones but I wasn't blown away by anything.
ReplyDeleteHey it's okay to curse while decorating outside your house. Because I haven't done any decorating yet and it's already December next week.lol
ReplyDeleteLots to be thankful for. You got a bargain at target.
ReplyDeleteI don’t do Black Friday or cyber Monday. Actually my Christmas shopping is already done, so I’m just going to sit back and enjoy the season.
ReplyDeleteI don't usually participate on Cyber Monday. So it's ok! I just want to relax!
ReplyDeleteI got way more deals on Thursday than on Friday or Monday!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your husband. I don't have a Pinterest worthy tree either and it doesn't bother me in a bit.
ReplyDeleteI BOUGHT NOTHING yesterday! HA! It's funny, my husband and I went on a SHOPPING SPREE uhhh last weekend and I am pretty sure EVERYTHING that we bought would have been like 50% off this past weekend but OHHHHH well, we paid for ... BEATING THE CROWDS? lol!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your husband. Oh it's okay to forego after Thanksgiving sales to drive 5 hours one way the day after Thanksgiving to deliver Thanksgiving dinner to your elderly cousin and then drive 5 hours back because she misses home cooked meals. Yeah we did that, this year and last year and we'll probably do it again next Thanksgiving as well.
ReplyDeleteI don't do Black Friday. Especially now that the deals are online. It's so much easier to shop from my sofa!
ReplyDeleteI didn't go out on Black Friday. All I bought on Cyber Monday was 2 sweatshirts for my oldest (school uniform ones) that made them about half off with free shipping. Didn't really see exciting deals.
ReplyDeleteIt's totally OK not to go out early on Black Friday. I didn't either. I find that it's not worth dealing with the traffic and lines!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of making a "Hey it's okay" list... especially for younger people dealing with social pressures. I also don't have a Pinterest worthy tree nor did I find good deals on Cyber Monday!

I'm so boring, I didn't leave my house for 5 days over the Thanksgiving holiday! no shopping for me on either days. We stayed home, ate a lovely quiet dinner with just my husband and the kiddos and put up our non-Pinterest tree as well! ☺
ReplyDeleteI didn't see a lot of great deals this Cyber Monday. That was a little disappointing, but I was out of town and didn't spend a lot of time looking for them.
ReplyDeleteI got that Target coupon as well and thanks for the reminder to use it. I think that today is the first day...so off I go now to cybershop again!
ReplyDeleteMy crazy husband went out on Thanksgiving for the Black Friday sales. I say it is OK to have stayed home without him.
ReplyDeleteI was with you on almost all of these. I was also disillusioned by the lack of deals on the products I was considering on Black Fri. and Cyber Monday.
ReplyDeleteI totally wasn't impressed with Cyber Monday deals this year! I also went out on Black Friday...but it was late afternoon when the crowds had left.
ReplyDeleteEh. I wasn’t super impressed. I think it’s just all become too commercialized and so there’s sales from November through Christmas and some of the cyber Monday deals were bad lol
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are an amazing person and had an amazing weekend! It's ok to be okay with it! :)
ReplyDeleteI do not have a Pinterest tree either. I like how unique our tree is. We had a great Thanksgiving. It is always nice to be able to get the whole family together.
ReplyDeleteI definitely did not go out for Black Friday lol! Thanksgiving was great though. Congrats to your huz.
ReplyDeleteHOpe you had an amazing Thanksgiving!! I don't usually partake in Black Friday/Cyber Monday stuff, but this year I did. Though my savings weren't exactly stellar. Meh!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that you didn't buy much on Cyber Monday. Congratulation to your husband. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI was not blown away by the Black friday deals and neither was my husband. I am sure we are okay with that.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't as enthusiastic this year as I was during last year's Cyber Monday. I am saving for something big and hopefully I can get it next year at drop down prices! And guess what, it is perfectly okay!
ReplyDeleteWe don't do Black Friday either, well, I kind of, but I do it online. We did go out on Saturday though and bought a couple of things but that was it and that is okay.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice thanksgiving! We also skipped black friday, but cyber monday treated us well haha
ReplyDeleteThese posts always make me laugh! We are decorating outside today - so excited, but I know there'll be a curse or two - or ten LOL.
ReplyDeleteHaven't decorated yet, I am now making a felt tree safe for our toddler. Congrats on your husband.
ReplyDeleteI went out for Black Friday in the afternoon just to get the stuff I needed since it didn't happen before Tday. Still got that coupon too!
ReplyDeleteThe Cyber Monday deals this year wasn't so great but that's okay. Congratulations to your husband, must be an accomplishment for him! I like this idea of making a "that's okay" list I might just try this for myself :-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Tom!
ReplyDeleteI didn't do any shopping on Black Friday or Cyber Monday. And I still feel great!
Congrats to you and your family for your husband's accomplishments.Your tree is lovely. I didn't go to Black Friday either but it's okay.
ReplyDeleteIn Canada Black Friday and Cyber Monday just recently became an actual thing, and the deals aren't the best. For sure not what they are like in the US. So I didn't shop either! - Jeanine
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving! I love this time of year since the whole family can get together and enjoy their time with one another!
ReplyDeleteHey I never got that 20 percent off card for the 50 dollars in spending at Target. Lucky you! I did get a gift where they gave me a ten dollar gift card though. That was cool.
