Old White Women for Obama to the rescue


"I've been an outdoorsman for 40+ years and I can tell you it's NOT going to rain..." the joking words of my father slapped him in the head in the form of zillions of little raindrops today as our walk was cut short. While hurrying through the rain trying to get back to the house, a car pulled up alongside us and a nice little lady offered us an umbrella. She handed it to us and then sweetly asked, "Are you all registered to vote?" ha...I knew there had to be a catch! Only then did I notice the bumper stickers all over the back of her snazzy little hybrid car, "Old White Women for Obama!" We kindly brushed off her political advances, thanked her for the umbrella, and hustled along in the rain to the warm comfort of a small coffee shop that just HAPPENED to be along the path to home. I can say it whole-heartedly (today at least), thank you, Obama supporters. :)

Stinking ears.

Poor Mr Britton is stuck with an ear infection...still. Seriously, if your kiddo is sick, please don't take them out and about! Poor little guy had not been sick until that fateful night of Bible study when he caught some nasty virus in the nursery and has been fighting this little cold/ear infection ever since. As a mother it angers me that people are thoughtless and now my poor baby has to suffer. Grrr....I guess back to the doctor we'll go Monday morning. Grrr again.
