Super Tuesday

If you're in a state that's voting in a primary today, go vote. If you don't know who you'd choose, take a few minutes and check out a comparison sheet. Just Google "presidential candidate comparison" and see what you think.

Do I have an opinion? Sure...if you want to know you can give me a call or email. I'm not gonna endorse via blog. (Here's a hint...it's not a she.) I'd hate to influence someone inappropriately with my overwhelming charm and wisdom.

I hadn't been into this campaign til the last month or so. I caught a speech by a candidate that made me so mad that that person might even slightly have a chance to be the president that I had to check out the field. So I've been Little Miss Political News lately...the TVs stuck on channel 60 (locals can identify it), and the husband is rolling his eyes. But hey, it's important. I'm an adult. Time to know what's happening to our country.

Go vote!

Edited to Add: I did actually go vote. I took my grouchy kiddo out in the pouring, and I mean pouring, rain to fill in our little ovals. Got the sticker to prove it!

    Glad to hear you've gotten cranked up on the election! We've had some fun doing "our thing" as well. It's Super Tuesday and the results tonight should be interesting... not encouraging, I'm afraid, but interesting....

    I voted too - and I voted for a long shot candidate that has gotten no press and the media hates his ideas - so no chance for the presidency, but man - its the principle of the thing! What happened to the America that who ever wants to try to become president has the chance to do so? Some will say I threw away my vote, but oh well.

    Rene--Good for you. That's two of us!

    We don't get to vote for another two weeks, so I hope it still matters at that point. Unfortunately, the horse in the race I was rooting for has pulled up lame, so I have to pick someone else...

    Hey, my friend--greetings from Kansas. I just checked in to see how things were going. I'm glad you were able to get some work done and feel better about it. I, too, have begun watching the political landscape. Interesting stuff. Just wanted you to know I think of you and trust all is well.

    Andrea--I think I have like 8 stickers stacked up on my wallet. I don't know why that's where I put them. So I gave this one to Braska, and she didn't care for it too much.

    Mary--Sorry your horse is lame... my first horse also hit the sidelines. Think they were the same horse? :o)

    Karen--Hey there to you too. Glad you came by and said hello!! We're doing well, but we miss you!

    I am ashamed to say that I didn't even know today was a voting day! I was gonna tell you that I awarded you, but I see you have already found it!

    So you didn't drag Muncher out and vote with you. MUNCHER GO VOTE, IT IS IMPORTANT! (Oh yeah, that was all caps and an exclamation point.) If you want to, you can just go so you can cancel your wife's vote, that is what Mindy and I usually do. :)

    Hi. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
    Seriously - I can't get over how adorable your little girl is. Do you care if I add you to Zach's blog link list? I love reading about other kids like Zach. I just started his blog and I love reading about our special kids - especially because I'm stuck inside all day long with nothing else to do besides stare outside and wish all the snow gone....

    Shannon--I think you're ok. You're primary is not til 5/6. No worries!

    Captain--Way to tell him. But we've never cancelled each other out...always been on the same page for this, thankfully.

    Nancy--I'd be honored to be included on your list. :o)

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h

Little call, big letters

This will make more sense to you DS moms and families out there... I apologize for the cryptic nature, but you'll have to trust my reasoning. Braska had a lab draw on Tuesday last week. The GI called me Wednesday and said there were some significantly elevated levels in the results. Ok fine. Not like we've never had an abnormal lab. But then he used *those* words...the C word and the L word. Said he'd be talking to hem/onc. We needed to go redraw on Friday morning. We didn't freak or anything, but when I hung up the phone, I thought, "Wow, so that's what it's like the first time they mention it." We took her for her draw again on Friday morning, and we figured everything was fine since we got no call over the weekend. Yesterday I checked in with them. Dr. R confirmed that everything was clear, almost in a "weird way," but they checked with the lab to make sure it was a viable result. All is well. Follow up in 6 months as usual unle

Can I get a do-over?

If you are in need of a laugh at another's expense, I invite you to read on... really, it's totally ok. I can take it. This might end up long, but I wanna remember this special day. Oh so special... Today is my first day to have both girls and be on my own. Yeah, it's been two weeks, but I'm apparently slow at learning how to deal with this kind of thing. I knew it would be a challenge, but I thought with starting way early, we could make it. The quick ending is that we did make it...but that's not really the whole story. Kinlee's been sleeping til about 9 am or so after getting up twice in the night. That's ok, I'm dealing with it. But since Braska is supposed to be at school at 10 am on Mondays, I thought I better not sleep in like I prefer, and instead, I should get up and get things moving earlier to be sure we're on time. Not a problem, since Braska decided to be up twice last night in addition to Kinlee's two times. One time overlapped...so
