Smash!

More excitement than I needed today. After being tailgated by a woman in a minivan, down my residential street, I got a nice big dent in the back of my car. She was obviously in a hurry, and my 30 mph on Lime Ave. wasn’t fast enough for her. Then when I didn’t make my right hand turn, because a car was coming, she smashed into me. Yes, we are fine, and not hurt, but after taking somebody’s name, car insurance and license number down, is saying “thank you” the appropriate thing? I appreciate that she gave me all of her information, after yelled at her for tailgating me, but I don’t really have any thanks for her, now that I have to spend time on the phone with insurance companies, and worry about getting my car repaired before I drive it. There could possibly be some damage to the wheel or suspension underneath. Anyway, let’s hope the rental car is a nice color.

Happy Birthday to My Sister

Happy Birthday Jennifer!

It's a New Day... It's a Happy Day!

Change, change, change...

I am excited about our future, and so happy that America voted for Obama. After the disaster the current administration has created of this country. This is exactly what we needed. I am thrilled for the Obama family, my family and for America. And what a surprise that we knew before 8:00 in the evening. I thought it was going to be a late night.

I have so much to say about the election and my feelings, but I want to focus on the fact that I am so excited for something new and different. I will get deeper tomorrow. Wednesdays are always a long day for me, so I will sign off.

Vote!

I Believe...

I believe both candidates truly care about America.
I believe we need change. Who doesn’t?
I believe John McCain made a huge mistake choosing Sarah Palin as his running mate.
I believe whoever wins this election has more challenges than any president has had in my thirty seven years alive.
I believe that if people of the same sex can marry, there will be no negative affect on me and my family.
I believe that most people voting in Tuesday’s election are more passionately against the man they are not voting for, than how passionate they are for the candidate they are voting for.
I believe voting in this election is more important than any other election I have voted in.
I believe in Freedom.
I believe in Choice.
I believe in Peace.
I believe in The United States of America.

7 Years!

Happy Anniversary, to my love, Lee!

I know, it's pretty blurry and grainy, but it was the best I could get on 1600 iso and 1/30 shutterspeed. And I like it!

Finally Halloween!

I doubt Elliot could have cared less, but he did love his Pumpkin flash light, that he was so proud of, that he showed it off to anyone who would look at him in Carl's Jr. We went trick or treating in my old neighborhood with Bailey, Becky and Grandma Sue, and even took pictures on the front lawn like my mom always made my sister and I do. I think Elliot was the luckiest of all being pushed around the neighborhood in his car.
