Voting and band-aids

I am glad to say that voting was not the cause of my 2 band aids on the same arm.....

Voting: The lines were long which I think is evidence of how important the election is. I was glad to see the turnout. The line for people registering was also respectable... yeah new voters (or people that have moved)!

Band aids: I can proudly say that I did not faint after getting a flu shot and a mantoux test in the same arm within 2 minutes of each other. Another milestone accomplished.

On my way home from voting, I decided to get my car washed. I suddenly remembered why I haven't done it for 2 years. If there would have been a picture of me, I probably would have looked like my youngest nephew at his first car wash, a bit scared. I had to drive in and then at a designated point put my car in nuetral and take my foot off of the brake. I couldn't see a darned thing for about 5 minutes.

As a treat after my very productive and brave day, I decided to get a mushroom and black olive pizza from Papa Murphy's take-n-bake and am going to have a beer!

A weeks worth of Activities....

I realize that I haven't posted in a while, so here are a few pictures documenting our week.

1.Guess the body part.......


This is my leg after I, yes I said I, slammed it in my car door.

2. Today we played in a volleyball tournament. We played 5 matches. We won all but the last one.


3. We raked all of our leaves. It looks much more fun to rake when there are children involved!
Tomorrow we get to clean out all of our gutters

4. Making eyeball cookie salad. Don't worry, the one in my mouth did not go in the salad.







5. Relaxing eating the leftover candy that the kids didn't collect!




That is our week in a nutshell.

Tonight I have to go to work at 11:15 pm. Thanks to daylight savings time, I have to be awake to repeat my 2am hour. This is the first time in my life that I dislike the "fall back" phenomenon. I will just have to get through it by thinking about all the energy that we save by having daylight savings time.
