I put up 90% of the Christmas decorations. It has taken me dayssssssssss. Wish I had someone to put lights up outside. Annoyed I'm scared of ladders and Robert won't do it because he doesn't like them. Annoyed Annoyed We don't really have a place to plug them in anyway. We'd have to run a cord to the back yard and I don't know how good of an idea that is. I know one thing: if we build a house, we are putting an outlet out front!!!

Jack wants a Kurio kids tablet. Robert wants to get him a better tablet. I won't pay more than a Kindle Fire costs. He doesn't need anything else. I keep looking at various tablets, and I'm getting a freaking headache.

This is what he was looking at at first, but the thing is only 4 inches.

This is what I was looking at, but the reviews are confusing. And I don't know anything about Android.

And there is the Fire. And there is the Nabi? And....ugh. Robert wants it to be fast and it has to hold his (Jack's) games.

Co-worker got a Wallymart tablet...was a good price and I'll see which it was and how they liked it. Took it to Hawaii for 2 weeks last month...so nice long flight, etc...so a pretty good test if it's good or not...will let you know (tomorrow maybe)

I ended up buying a Fire just now. I chatted with them on a whim and they gave me $30 off, so that made it comparable.

It's like I tried to tell one of my coworkers- deals are everywhere if you're a smart shopper. This guy is insistent that Black Friday is the best deal on everything.laugh out loud
