HAPPY ELECTION DAY EVERYBODY!!!!

I am taking a break from the grief storm to say that I got out of the house and voted. I took my mother to vote too, and made my FB status to let anyone know that if they needed a ride to the polls, I would take them. Free of charge, and with gratitude.

You are all rocks stars in my mind. I can't even begin to tell you how this place has helped me in this (still) trying time.

This is my first election day without my Dad. It was always popping on election day with us. I'd always break out the slow cooker and put something on all day because we'd be running, and volunteering, and phone banking, etc.

This year I am still too far gone in grief (I still break into tears spontaneously) so I am so grateful for you guys, and your dedication, and your passion.

Thank you!!! really
