Manufactured Homes VS. Older Homes

We live in a very old home in the Midwest. Our home is full of the funkiness and quirkiness that just goes with old homes. Doors and windows that are not level and even, floors that slope, counter tops that slope, plaster walls with layers and layers of old coverings from many owners over many years. It is all a part of the house that I could not imagine not having.

I have never lived in a brand new home in my life. The prospect of living in something like a prefab or a manufactured home seems quite foreign to me. I don’t know if I could do without the character. I could probably do without the sloping counter tops…but other than that…LOL

Black Friday VS. Cyber Monday

Which do you prefer? I make no bones about the fact that I will choose online shopping over braving cold, traffic and crowds on Black Friday anyday. There was a time when I would be out there with the best of them…but those days are long gone.

How can Black Friday compete with shopping in my warm slippers and robe in my comfy chair? No way! Over the last weeks I’ve overheard snippets of conversations here and there about Black Friday excursions people either were planning or had…and this kind of shopping just isn’t for me.

So…which do you prefer? Which did you do?
