Voter Tuesday...er...Thursday

Our Obama sign was stolen today.
This is what someone did when the signs in their
neighborhood went missing, including their own.
The crazy part is we've been waiting for our actual sign
(along with some t-shirts)to come in the mail
and we had borrowed our sign from a friend.
Buttons thought that whoever stole our sign was probably
a "mean, old, grumpy troll". I agree.

Voter Tuesday

Do you know it's only been 88 years that women have had the right to vote? There were many women who took up this cause and won after years of trying and some of them never had the chance to cast one single vote. Perhaps you know a friend or a neighbor who is not planning to vote. Why don't you give them a call or ring their bell and ask them if they'd like a ride to the polls on Tuesday, November 4th?

Voter Tuesday

I'm going to try and do a post every Tuesday until the election about voting, so here's the first. As you can tell from some previous posts, voting is very important to me and to my husband as well. Back in 2004, Buttons and I were at the polling place for several hours to pass out information and greet people. Buttons is aware of the candidates and knows that Obama is our man.
So, the other night in the bathroom, there was a magazine with Obama on the cover and Hubby was wearing his Mr. Rogers t-shirt with "Everything is good in the 'hood" written on it. Buttons told my husband that she thought Neighbor Rogers (her name for him) would make a good president. Hubby agreed but then had to tell her why that couldn't happen (RIP Mr. Rogers). Later, the three of us talked about the reasons he would be a good president. He would work for world peace, the environment and most importantly think of children first. I hope our next president will be one that will give Buttons a brighter future and then perhaps our daughter could call him Neighbor Obama.
