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.

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...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
