It Matters...To Me Anyway

Maybe I just didn't notice four years ago.  After all we had a two and three year old.  But this year it makes me sad that so many people have turned this election personal.  Lee has an uncle who says that anybody who votes for Romney just is dumb and not paying attention to the facts. My father in law said those people voting for Obama have been fooled.  Really?  I did my research and I am either dumb nor fooled.  I get to vote MY concionous.  MINE!!! I am worried about the future of this country just like everybody else.  ( Well not everybody but that is a whole different post)I am worried about the country my grandchildren will in.  I assume I will have at least two of those but who knows.  

I had a coworker post that she is voting for Romney because she is voting for somebody who cares about this country.  Ummm...okay.  Obama cares he just does things different then you think.  

Here is my take.  I truly think that we are given the choice of two GOOD men. Neither one of them have been accused of cheating on their wives.  I saw interviews with both of them and they both spoke so highly of their wives and children.  These are family men.  Do I want one of them to win more then the other?  YES!!!  Am I moving to Canada if the other one wins?  NO!!!  Why? Because I believe in this country I believe in the goodness.  These are not perfect men not by a long shot but these are men who want what is best for this country they just have different opinions on how and what that is. 

If Romney is elected then I think we will see something different then what he has promised.  Not because he is a liar but because he doesn't know what he is getting into.  It is like being a parent, you never really know what it is like until you are there and then it is just too late to back out.:)

Soon enough we will know!

LOCK DOWN

The governor came out on Wednesday and ordered a lock down.  It seems like a good idea and will not changed our lives all that much.  We did decided that we would only go to the grocery store once a week we went last Friday.  We will go tomorrow which means it will be nine days.  Kids haven't been in a store in weeks.  Lots of time in the garden and working on yard projects.  It has been good and bad.  More family time and less running around.  But lack of structure over the past two weeks has been tough.  Tomorrow would be the day the kids start back to school.  It is likely they won't be going back at all this year.  Victoria will be the most effected.  No eighth grade graduation likely   The school could decide to bring back just eighth and 12th graders.  Either way they are all out until 4/20.  "distance learning" will start for the kids on 4/13.  Which is another reason I think they will end the schoo...

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...

When you know somebody is having a hard time in their marriage.  Pull them closer.  Ask to take the kids for a weekend.  Bring them dinner.  Reach out to them.  Ask them how they are doing.   Don't insist on visiting or having them visit you.  Know that their world feels like it is falling apart and it is taking every bit of energy to put on a good face for the kids and to work and run a household.  And it is has to be done while they continue to reside with somebody who they are struggling to have the most basic of conversation with.
