Finally the election is over!
It's been a long few months of listening to mud slinging and lies, but the election is over for now. I know, the Presidential race is still raging and will continue for ANOTHER year, but at least the local stuff is over. I can ignore the big stuff, at least Hillary and Rudy aren't calling my house begging for my vote. I refuse to vote for anyone who calls me at home. I don't care if they are the better candidate, simply by bothering my peace has cost them a vote. Also, don't show up at my door. That's another big NO NO in my book. Send me all the crap in the mail you want. It makes good fire starters in the spring for camping.
To try and catch up on life around here, I was back in the hospital on Halloween, hooked up to a HUGE IV, getting pain meds pumped into me every couple hours. It was not a good way to spend my favorite holiday.
I'm slowly on the mend and have gone back to work on a limited basis. I try to get to about half the event I normally would cover. More than that and I can't move. The doc says I'm doing well, but still can't drive long distances or lift anything over 5 pounds. My camera weighs more than that! I've also had to dig out a teeny little purse, rather than my normal Mommy bag that has everything needed for a weekend.
Hope everyone is well!

A Woman after my own heart!! I tell them to their face - "If you think I'm too stupid to vote for you unless you tell me why I should in person, then I think you're too stupid to be ____"
You get well quick now!
I love that you don't vote for people who call! I once had a campaign call my house at 6am and wake my infant son -- I wrote a letter complaining and saying I was not voting for the candidate. I got a letter of apology and the candidate changed calling practices -- but still didn't get my vote in that election. ;)
Glad to hear you're on the mend! Hopefully your camera restrictions will be lifted soon. I'm not a big fan of random organizations calling at home, either. I don't even have a home phone anymore, so they really had better not be trying my cell phone!
