Let’s Hope This One Falls Through Too

I Voted…Have You?

Denis and I both voted this morning before work. I took the kids to daycare while he got in line, and then I followed about 10 minutes later. I had to park in a parking lot two lots away from the church where we voted. Fortunately it stopped raining right as I parked – I [...]
