Did you Vote?

Of course I did!

Now, if my 17 year old daughter could only understand that somethings in life are private. As I wrote on my FaceBook page - "I don't discuss politics in mixed company". I truly believe that. We are all entitled to our opinion and I certainly don't want to debate yours or mine. My husband and I don't even discuss it. But through the eyes (and ears) of a 17 year old who has NO problem voicing her opinion, it's not good enough that we don't want to share our choices. Her feeling is that if we don't agree with her opinion we are automatically against her. As adults and responsible parents, we have chosen to let her express her opinions on the election, but also are trying to point out the other side of her opinion to open her mind so to speak. However, as an oh so wise 17 year old - she doesn't see it that way.

Mom, yet again, I apologize!

Can't believe it's only Tuesday! Yikes, this week won't pass fast enough. Mom and I are off to the Boston Christmas Festival on Saturday. This is probably one of the best craft shows I have ever been too. It's the official start of the Christmas season! We have gone every year. Unfortunately DD will not be coming with us this year - she has to work at noon and I would hate for her to be late.

We are though doing something that we have NEVER done this weekend. When DD gets home from work on Saturday we are heading north to New Hampshire, North Conway specifically. No reservations, no agenda other than coming home Monday afternoon. So, if anyone can recommend a yarn shop in the area please contact me!

Must remember to get batteries for the camera - the kitties have been just too cute tonight and I have a few projects that I need to photograph.

I have decided to do WW only online as of today. My husband and I are again preparing meals everyother day for his folks and it's just too much to rush around like this to attend the meetings. I know it's only once a week, but my commute can be 1 1/2 hours just to come home! I would rather spend my time away from my family at a class. I am actually toying with a belly dancing class offered in our community. I am hoping I will be able to continue to journal and keep up with the posts online through the WW site and Ravelry.com and keep up the success I have had to date.

GO VOTE!!
