Election Day.

Busy couple of days - well, not really busy, just got a bunch of things going on and it prevents me from keeping my routine - and I hate that! We got new carpet put in on Friday - the entire house: living room, hallway, our room, and the kids' rooms. Which meant that everything had to come out of all those rooms and in to the kitchen and the dining room and the garage. After the carpet got put in and they are gone, Rob thinks there's something wrong with some of the carpet so he holds off putting the house back together until he talks to the carpet place. So that means the bed is not put together and my back is killing me from sleeping so low to the ground, the kids are eating dinner standing up at little tray tables in the kitchen, I can't get to my crafting table, and my bras are under a mountain of dirty clothes in the closet! Anyway - he talked to the carpet people yesterday and all is good...

K had the sniffles all last week which turned in to a fever Friday night and all day Saturday, so we took her in to the Doc who said it was viral which means no prescription. Naturally she was better the next day but now she's got this gross sounding cough.

Today is a busy day for me - Tuesdays usually are, but even more so. Sales meeting this morning, need to vote middle of the day, the kids both have dentist appointments at 5 and then I need to go find some cocoa for my latest crafting endeavor. I am looking for a specific kind with specific packaging - gotten it at Costco before but looked last night at Fred Meyer and Walgreen's and nothing. So, I think I'm going to trek all the way to Costco tonight just for that.

It's gonna be a long day, but hey - it's election day, and I'm grateful we live in a country where you actually have a say and get to vote.
