Well, there’s no doubt about it. This was a hard fought campaign for both candidates. The unfortunate side of elections is all of the negative “mudslinging” that happens between all parties. Whether or not your candidate won, I think most of us are thankful that it is over. No more negative campaign ads!
It’s certainly okay to be frustrated and upset if the candidate you voted for didn’t come out on top. During this post election time, it is important to take it easy on yourselves and others. While you may rejoice in the outcome, or perhaps be sulking, just remember that the sun will shine again tomorrow. Others may not feel the same way, but the sun will shine on them again, too. We may have varying political beliefs, but I believe that variety is indeed the spice of life. (In fact, I seem to remember talking about that in a recent blog post!) Respect each other‘s beliefs, respect each other‘s opinions, and respect each other’s space. Believe it or not, we are all in this together. As Americans. One nation.

Some of the names on this list are so big, it’s difficult to fathom how these people have never won a Grammy Award. Some of these people are absolute A-list […]

Spring’s Coming!
Leave it to me to talk about Spring on one of the coldest days of the season. I’m completely frozen to the bone. Perhaps it’s these cold days that really flares up my cabin fever. I haven’t concealed the fact that I don’t like winter. I’ve lived here in the upper Midwest my entire life […]
