I VOTED! Election Day, Nov. 4th 2008

This morning at 7:00 a.m. I went and voted in the 2008 Presidential Election between John McCain (REP) and Barack Obama (DEM). I am glad this day is finally here. I am really tired of hearing about the election. I get tired of all the bad things that are said back and forth to each other. If they could only realize how it makes them look when they are so mean to each other. It makes me not want to vote for either. We have two people that are running for President that really need to grown up.

I am, however, SCARED. Scared of what this country is coming to. Scared of what my kids will have to go through as they grow up in this country. I just don't get why things can't stay simple. When I was a kid life seemed so simple. I am sad for the trying times we are all facing.

But, I am thankful for my job. The home I have to live in. For my health. For my family & friends. For the gospel and the Prophet who guides us and we should all hear and listen to what he has to say and BE PREPARED! It's going to get harder and we need to face that fact. My goal this next couple of months is to really get a food storage together. Mine has dwindled the past couple of years. I am working on that savings account and hoping it can continue to grown.

I am proud to be an American! I am proud and thankful to those who serve this country and dedicate their time away from their families to Serve and Fight for ME and all of US! Thank you!

So, if you haven't been out to vote today, do so. Your vote really does count and I am so glad I have the right to VOTE!
