Almost over

Today hopefully means the end to all of this negativity surrounding the election. I’m pretty sure all the nastiness never ends but once a winner is announced I think most of it will fade away. Driving home from work last night, seeing all of the people standing outside with their Obama, McCain, abortion is wrong, gay marriage is right signs. . . it all just kind of hurts my heart. I’m glad everyone is able to express their opinions freely, but a lot of people can’t manage to express things in a loving, non-judgemental way. I guess we are all human and without these people life might be pretty boring. I guess not having a sign in my yard and only talking to my husband about politics makes ME boring!

Last election I was 19 and didn’t have much of a care in the world regarding presidential candidates. I can still honestly say I’m not as informed as I wish I was and probably should be, but I made a decision based on the facts I DO know. . . and the topics I feel as a Christian AND American should not be left unconsidered. I’m happy I was able to do so.

Other than that, I have been pretty much useless the past couple of days. I felt terrible over the weekend. Sick to my stomach. . . kind of like I had the flu but without a cold or cough. Sunday we skipped out on church so I could catch up a little bit on rest and then we were able to go with my parents to see my brother in Orlando. He seems to be doing really good, and it was nice to be able to see for myself. After wards, we went to Cracker Barrel. They had all of their Christmas decorations out and it made me happy. I’m pretty sure buying Christmas accessories for my house is a huge love and weakness of mine. If I could, I’d probably be one of those people who have a winter wonderland right in their front yard. I’m sure Kevin would never let that happen though.

Now we wait and see how this all plays out!
