Happy Election Day!

Ok, I admit it. I HATE politics and have only voted in two elections....today's being the second! My wonderful husband and his love of talk radio has caused me to pay more attention to my civic duties, LOL!!

But I really didn't want to stand in line today, so I requested a mail-in ballot and dropped it off yesterday. Our local ballot was a record breaker at three pages long! So I got to take my time while filling it out at home. Now, my husbnd and I have made predictions on what will happen in the next few days. I think they are pretty funny, but I won't be commenting on them. Sorry!

Oh!! And McCain came to speak in my town of Grand Junction, Colorado today! How cool is that! He choose us to talk to on election day. Of course I didn't go, LOL!! Too many people and I didn't feel like sitting around for hours waiting....although I guess I could've taken a crochet project to work on!

So, I have no idea who is going to win...but I do know who I voted for! And I will definately be HAPPY when the commercials stop running and my phone stops ringing! So get out and vote! This one is sure to make history!

Obama in Grand Junction!!

OK, I am NOT about to go all political on you, but I had to share this bit of information. It seems that presidential candidate Barack Obama will be speaking in my little town of Grand Junction today! Pretty cool, huh??

Now, I will NOT mention if I support this candidate or not. But I will NOT be going to listen to him...just too many people for me, LOL!! I'm such a homebody! And truthfully, if it were not for my husband, I probably would still care less about politics. But HE likes to listen to talk radio a lot and discuss politics, so I am bound to learn a little bit!

What I find really cool is the location he choose to speak at! Cross Orchards is a historic farm here in Grand Junction. Heather and I usually visit at least once a year. It's a really cool place. I think her class will even be going on a field trip there next month.

I believe he is coming here because we are in the middle of oil drilling fields! Plus, I think they consider Colorado to be a swing state. I may listen to his speech while I clean the house today...but we'll see. Now, I wonder if McCain will visit us too??

Boy, Grand Junction is really getting bigger than it was when I moved here almost 12 years ago!
