Election Day

Last year this time, I became very politically active. The first time ever, in all of my voting years did I become so involved. I do not know if it was the spirit moving in the coutry, my urge to really take my part in the process or hoping that my small part could make a change. I went door to door handing our literature and watch enough CNN to make sure I understood all of the issues. This election day, I do not feel that same spirit. I kinda of just want it to be over with. I am still going to vote today, due my need to not allow others to make decisions for me. I just wish that every election was like last election, with the feeling that what and who you are voting for is worth wild.

I agree - there is no fire in anyone's belly this election day. I live in Atlanta, and theres a huge mayoral race this year. The DJ's spent all day trying to convince people to go to the polls because the turn out was so low. Its really a shame.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Thanksgiving Traditions

With the holidays coming,  I am thinking about how I want to spend them with the hubby. We do the same thing every year for Thanksgiving and make a road trip to spend it with his family. I usually go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving starting at 3:00am and usually come home and sleep the rest of the day. I was looking at starting some sort of new traditions on the Saturday after Thanksgiving that we can do for years to come. Maybe like putting up the Christmas tree (this is my vote), taking an annual holiday photo, doing some shopping together or maybe doing something relaxing like getting a couples massage. Of course, we will have to throw in some football and lots of left overs whatever we decide to do.Building new traditions, will be the traditions that will continue in our family  and define the holidays for years to come.  Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?
