Politics

So I really don't say much about politics and Presidents on here.  I try to keep this politic free because I have friends who are EXTREMELY opposite of me and I really don't want to offend. 

If you care to discuss politics with me, come to me calmly and we can talk.

However, here is what I want to say. 

It's AUGUST already--almost September!  We have been hearing about the candidates for what seems like forever! 

I know who I am voting for.

I'm sure MOST Americans have made their decisions too.

I think that the TVs should be CAMPAIGN-FREE ZONES from now until November.  I'm a little tired of Romney saying things about Obama.  I'm tired of Obama saying things about Romney. 

I've met one of the candidates for Governor, and I'm tired of hearing him speak.

I think at this point, all politics should go to an online campaign.  If people want the truth about the candidates, do research online for yourself.  We all know that NONE of the commercials are 100% true anyways.  Most of them stretch the truth just to get votes.

Now, I have said what I want to say.  (I think I stayed very neutral--although I'm very UNneutral at the polls!)

Comment if you agree!

Same boat - I know who I'm voting for, and I'm sure nothing I say will change the minds of anyone who believes differently. I cannot stomach the vitriol & negativity!!! It's pure poison. I can't wait until the elections are OVER.

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
