Yep. In line to vote. The polls opened at 7 am and we didn't want to have to wait too long. Although we would've waited as long as necessary. Even though it was raining and cold.
Because that seems like very little to endure to make our opinions known through voting, especially when our military men and women brave much more than a little cold water to help keep us free so that we can have the opportunity to voice our opinions.
I must say that I am so nervous today! I don't remember ever feeling this nervous about a presidential election. 2008 was a bit nerve-wracking, but let's admit it, we all pretty much knew how that one was going to go down. Yes, I held out hope until the bitter end, but in my heart-of-hearts, I just knew.
I'm not sure if I'll even get anything productive done today, but I will try. And I'm sure we'll be up very late tonight to see what happens with the election, even though the final results might not be out until tomorrow. Or so. Depending.
You see, we were living in Florida during the 2000 "hanging of the chads" presidential election. It was awesome. Not. We did not have any "hanging chads" problems at our polling place, thank heavens. I'm really hoping that this election is in no way, shape, or form a repeat of that election. Except for the final results. Those were good.
Let's just find out these results.
And move on.
And hopefully tomorrow will be the dawning of a bright new day in America. If not, it will be pretty depressing.
Maybe I should try and get a lot done today, just in case...
But no.
Positive thoughts.
Lots of positive thoughts.
And prayers.
And faith that the Lord is in charge, and that He has a plan.
For all of us.
God Bless America.
Please.
