And now for our feature film.....Cyber Monday!

TLE and I have never been part of the "Black Friday, Cyber Monday" phenomenon, so working here at Amazon is our first close up experience with just a part of it.  On past Black Fridays we have just stayed home, and we usually do our online shopping way before Cyber Monday, or 10 days before Christmas.

Finally get to put up the Santa we bought in Twin Falls!

Saturday was COOOOOOOLD!  At 1pm it was 35 degree, and this morning when we arrived back at the coach it was 23 degrees!  So glad we have the new electric blanket to take the chill off the bed....lol!

The reason I know it was 35 degrees at 1pm is that I drove over to Kroger's to do some shopping for things I needed....V8, dental floss, salsa and milk.  Of course, I dressed in shorts, and only wore a hoody sweatshirt.....it was down right painful walking from the car into the store.  I did have enough sense to wear shoes and forego the flip flops....:D

Since we got up around Noon the afternoon was short, and it was time to walk over to Amazon for our 4th work day of the week, but before that TLE made some great stir fry for dinner, then we got dressed and walked over to Amazon for another shift.......next week 5 tens await us, and for the remaining 4 weeks we will be working at least 5 tens each week with a possible 6th day thrown in, or maybe a few 12 hour days.  The good news is we feel like we are running down hill now.  We had another enjoyable night/morning in HRV and our new team is functioning like a finely tuned car.  Everyone knows the various aspects of our job up there, and the boredom factor has not reared its ugly head.  Just about the time you wish you were doing something else it is time to switch from packing to picking, or restocking boxes, etc.  Now 7 of  the 8 people in our circles of friends are up in HRV....the 8th person has always been in outgoing packing, or Crisplant, as they call it here.....I have no idea what where the term Crisplant came from.  Anyway, our whole picking group is now in HRV, plus a few others whom we are getting to know.

Saturday night was a little less frenetic.....not quite as many people jamming up the lunch and break areas, but Monday will be busy again as all the Cyber orders ramp up.

Sunday, our only day off, will be spent with friends at a Mexican restaurant in Lebannon, KY, about 13 miles away, then a few naps and some NFL in between.

Thanks for stopping by!
