An Anniversary I Almost Forgot....

 Almost forgot this with all the brouhaha of the election tonight. I have been living with Type I Diabetes for 22 years now....

Hail To The CHief. I Guess....

 So, CNN is projecting that Cheetos-Face will win the election. And he's won by the popular vote. It's not the result that I wanted, but I will respect it. I feel that there will be consequences for this, both nationally and on a global scale. But the people have spoken (the projections say he won by the poular vote, like I said). And that means that Donald Trump is my president. For the next 4 years, and then no more (thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster for the 22nd Amendment).

Yes, he won. It was close, like the pundits had predicted. But in the end, it doesn't matter if it by one vote or by a landslide, he won. 

Now it's time to cross the aisle and work together.

Hail to the Chief. I guess....

Election Day Is Today....

 So today is election day. Will it be Harris or Cheetos-Face? I voted a week ago, and my brother voted this past weekend. And according to VoteWA.gov, my vote has already been recieved and will be counted. So I guess I'll just spend the night watching results and hiding under the covers....

I meant to go to Wally World this morning, but I didn't have my shopping bag with me (forgot it), and I decided not to deal with the paper bags with no handle. So no groceries today. Not a big deal, as I have enough in my pantry. Perhaps I might order pizza....

On Death.....

 So Sunday afternoon while I was sleeping (I work overnights, if you're just dropping into this blog) I recieved a Facebook message from one of my cousins on my Mother's side. My aunt (Mom's only sibling) passed away Saturday.My employer does offer paid bereavement, but only for close relatives (learned this from when my grandmother passed away), and aunts aren't close enough. So I went to work that night. My boss did offer the night off, but I declined as I was already there, and I'm already on this ice with my attendence issues....

So long story short, we lost Aunt Linda. She was my next door neighbor when my brother and I first moved in here. Eventually she moved to live with one of my cousins, and we grew apart. I never really kept in touch with Mom's side of the family (for some reason, Facebook never really took).

Rest easy, Aunt Linda. Mom will show you around....
