Intuition Was Right

I'm bored.........Yeah. Still bored. The little ones are
asleep, I've got laundry in. I straightened the house
yesterday and it's raining today (which means I'm not
getting out for a walk). It looks like all I've got left
are my obsessive little cleaning projects to do. Only day
two without Snookums and I'm already resorting to the
weird cleaning projects. Where's my grout brush and pipe
cleaners? Thankfully I work tonight. So, that's something
to look forward to.

My body is so sore. I woke up feeling every muscle in my
body, which is a good thing. They need to be woken up. It
occurred to me that I probably was pushing around 100
pounds up that hill yesterday. If you figure Kiki's over
50 pounds, Keenan's about 20, the huge stroller (with the
car seat in it, because Keenan can't sit up) is a good 25
pounds and then there's the diaper bag, Kiki's books and
my purse. It was a good 100 pounds. That's a hell of a
work out! I'm going to try to get out for a walk as often
as weather permits. Tomorrow is supposed to be a better
day, so you know I'll be hitting the pavement.

Well, I did it. I was thinking about registering to vote a
couple weeks ago, but forgot about it (that's how into
politics I am), but this morning I saw a little blip on
the news about the registration deadline coming up and
heard that I could do it online. So I did. I'm all
registered and ready to voice my opinion! Even if it
doesn't matter that much. Politics frustrate me, make me
uncomfortable (talking about them with others that know
more) and don't make good light conversation topics, so I
like to avoid the whole subject. The problem with going on
like that forever is that I'm developing a moral
conscience (shocking, I know) and I'm very intuitive. I
knew Bush was a monumental mistake before he was elected
and turns out that intuition was right. I have to at least
know that I did what I could to prevent the foreseen, even
if the rest of the country still takes the plunge and
picks the wrong candidate. Ultimately, I think there are
only a few differences that separate the candidates. It
just so happens that those differences are deal-breakers
for me. I don't want some puppet in Washington telling me
what's right for me. Especially not with my body. That's
what I've got a brain for. I've got friends that I know
are Republican and I love them just the same, but I want
as much freedom as possible. Even the Democrats meddle too
much in my eyes. But I'll take what I can get.

I'd better get back to that laundry. Ciao!
