Robot (Kat) Report
This was the very first year that I actually noticed "Black Friday" north of the border. Luckily I wasn't trampled by mobs or forced to camp out for many nights. Phew. In fact, epic strong winds were way more terrifying than any hoards of shoppers this weekend. I survived though - even if my planter didn't. What. Ever.
