Christmas Cactus

My pink girl is going nuts with the blooms this year.  The other one my mom almost killed.  2 summers ago when I brought it home it had a couple of leaves and that was it. So i babied it and it now has 2 blooms. I think it was a red one.

First Snow

I am never ready for the first snow because I just don't like winter.  Technically it is not Winter yet, but you know what I mean.  I prefer Spring and Summer where the weather is nice and no snow, ice, sunless days on end and bitter cold temps.

We are to get around an inch but still it is snow and with the temps dropping the roads may get icy in the morning. I dont have to go anywhere but my niece has to go go work and get off in the morning. I will worry about her.

I went out and fed my ferals with extra kibbles for the night and took some pics.

VOTE

Today is another election day.  I enjoy the electricity around going to the polls, filling out my forms, talking to a stranger in line about mindless things and then coming to see if I voted the way the majority did and walking out with my I Voted sticker.  I don't want to vote early because today is kind of like Christmas, there is the excitement of the day. 

Voting is still a privilege in this country and if you are a citizen you should care and vote.  I care more that you vote than how you vote.  And if you don't vote shut up cos you don't have a right to complain.  Also when the returns come in you can have a couple days to complain but not 2 years, grow up already, everyone can't win all the time. 

I am hoping we keep the whole Congress tonight and the governors as well.  So get out there and vote, take a snack cos the lines are long, do your research and vote how you believe and feel not how some movie star or media person tells you how to. What do YOU want the country to look like and vote that way.
