HAPPY HALLOWEEN


We went to the annual hood party last night hosted by Nancy & Harriette.



They are sisters that live here, each in their own house on the same block. They are from Wisconsin and Chicago. Nancy is the one in the middle, she did all the planning and decorating. Nancy was born on the same day as my mother. Harriette is on the right, she was dressed as winter, she even had snowballs on her head, they did a great job. Helen is on the left, she went as the QueenMum.

Me and Bob were bikers, no pictures pleeeease...Ugh, nothing worse than an old fat biker chick!!! Bob looked good though.

Tina and Steve dressed up as me & Bob.





What is with the ears though Steve?





We are off to Las Vegas until next week, then I gotta go to WW!!!

VOTE '08



I never did this before, but I signed up on the McCain website today. This is quite a hot election....it has many people fired up. From my limited political experience, which has for the most part been indifferent, I really have a strong feeling about this election. I have traditionally been an independent, but I have finally jumped into the deep end of the right side.

It is very disheartening to me that some people are being star struck by the opposition and are unable to see through the theatrics. Many of them are my family, but I'll love them no matter who they vote for............we can agree to disagree. There is no sense arguing about it, because at this point our minds are made up.

We have several divides in our family ranging from politics & religion to margarine v.s. butter. It's all part of who we are. God made us all with a free will,sometimes it gets us in trouble. If we didn't have a free will, what kind of world would this be???? So, use your free will with good & moral intentions. I am.
