Christmas Shopping On A Monday


Monday is my day off and I chuckled as I drove to the store to do a little Christmas shopping.  “Ha. Ha. I can get my shopping done on a Monday when everyone else is at work and the stores will be empty!”  I actually patted myself on the back while I was driving.

(By the way, if you pat yourself on the back while you’re driving keep at least one of your hands on the wheel or it’s possible that you’ll take out someone’s mail box.  …At least, that’s what I’ve heard.)

Then I got to the store… and I wasn’t laughing anymore.  Apparently, everyone—and I mean everyone—now has a day off on Monday.

I stopped patting myself on the back and stood in long lines instead.

Moral of the story?  Do your Christmas shopping on a Monday.  But make it a Monday in August.
