So...I'm just nattering along...
After a busy day doing data entry for Obama...

Thought I'd say hello to my friends here...

I hope all of you are having a nice night too...

1. Hi Peggy!
So, do things seem under control where you're volunteering?! It's just a couple of weeks away! I'm going to early vote; I can't wait!!

2. My dear KC2!
Yeah, things do seem pretty under control here...

We all have our jobs and we're doing them!

My crew comes to me with questions, and if I can't answer them, we kick it upstairs!

Eventually, it gets worked out, and so we continue...

I'm having a ball, frankly!

And I can't wait for it to be over...

3. I'm glad you're having fun
I'm hopefully optimistic... trying very hard not to be over-confident; even though it's beyond any kind of human logic anyone could dare consider voting for a Repug this time around.

4. There will always be those who will vote for the Republican...
But far fewer this time, I'm thinking...

It's fun, but I come home exhausted!

5. Hey Peggy!
Thanks for giving your time. Lame excuse, but I've been working seven days a week due to the credit crisis. So, I just try to "witness" to whoever will listen.

The other day, a co-worker told me she was confused about who to vote for. I asked why and she said she really didn't know. I asked if was it because he was black, and she said no. Then I asked if it was because he was "a Muslim". She again said no so I just dropped it. A little while later she came to my desk and said that yes, it really was because he was "a Muslim". I explained to her that Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised as a Muslim and is in fact a Christian. I told her that this lie, and many others were been originated by the repugs, and carried on by the media. She honestly looked relieved after we were done talking.

It's truly amazing what people listen to and take for the truth.

7. My dear bluesbassman!
You have more than enough on your plate...

It's not an excuse, nor is it lame...

It's a very good reason!

I hope you will soon be able to cut back your hours and enjoy your life!

I'm retired, and this makes many things possible...

As to your coworker...I often wonder what people do who don't have DU. We are so lucky!

Good for you, helping her see the truth...

:hug:

9. Hi, CalPeg!
Good to see you. :hug:

I just finished three run-throughs of the physical exam I'm being tested on on Monday. A couple more practice runs tomorrow, and I should be set.

But good morning!

I am watching another beautiful sunrise here.
