Hello Friends,
Thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate you all! Did you have fun with the kids for Halloween? It was so fun to see all the cute little kids in costumes and enjoying the day. I wish we could all see life through the eyes of a child every single day. Life would be so much less stressful wouldn't it? Pandemic or not, we found ways to make Halloween memorable. Now onto election week.
This year's election is no different. We find ways. This year I chose to mail my ballot in early and track it's progress. You too can do so here. First I was able to see when it was received and then when it was counted. If you haven't mailed your ballot in you can still drop your ballot off, vote early in person, or go on Election Day. It is our constitutional right to vote and everyone's vote counts. I will be so happy when the election is over however. There has been way too much tension and negativity during this election. It is my hope that no matter who wins, that we can accept the decision and make this world a better place. It is important to me that we all work together to create an environment that our kids can be proud of. can thrive in, that can get beyond this pandemic, and get back to life as we once knew it.
This right to vote is the basic right without which all others are meaningless.
It gives people, people as individuals, control over their own destinies.
Lyndon B. Johnson
