It has been a hectic election day. It started early this morning with the RMS mock election. We voted at school for the Pres/VP & a special amendment pertinent to our student body. The students registered to vote several weeks ago. They had homemade ID cards, which they had to have on person to vote. The school itself looks like a national convention with all of the red, white, blue, streamers, balloons, you name it. Anyway, we spent the entire morning getting students to the "polling place" and voting. It was busy but so worth it. Check us out in Monday's Huntsville Times.
I left work at 11:30 b/c of an afternoon dr. appointment. Apparently I've inherited the family knee & joint problems. Anyway, I will be heading into town to have that looked at around 2:00. In the meantime, I breezed into our polling place at Maysville Church of Christ. I have yet to figure out why we are zoned there (10 or so miles from here) when there is another one exactly a mile up the road. Who knows!? As I stated earlier, I flew in and out. I literally walked right up to the man, showed my ID, signed & printed my name, took my ballot, voted, got my sticker, and was back in my car in 10 minutes. It couldn't have been easier.
I am hoping and praying that the aftermath of today's events will be peace and unity in America. I can't imagine returning to a world like that experienced some 40+ years ago. We may disagree on what is best for our country, but it costs nothing to be civil. God Bless.
