Daughter Lise and friend Magda shopped on Black Friday, although not early in the day. They took advantage of good sales, modeling the coats they bought.

On the way to the airport, we stopped at Culver’s. When Magda saw her cup announcing that it was her happy place, she posed for a photo to mark the moment. I’d say her face shows total euphoria.

Since we left Magda, I’ve had a full night’s sleep, eaten breakfast, gone to online church, done two loads of wash, and changed the tablecloths from Thanksgiving to Christmas. She is on the other side of the ocean now, waiting in Amsterdam to fly to Copenhagen. I’m truly grateful that Lise and her friends are willing to go to so much trouble to come here to visit me.
