The early primary

http://www.digthewig08.com/ No seriously, Michigan held it's primary last night. The Democrats are punishing Michigan by pulling their delgates. The Republicans' are halved. But Michigan got some attention. It needed it. We have a state that is very different than Iowa or New Hampshire. So, I had no idea how to vote. I literally didn't know until I was standing at the podium. I voted for Romney. For some reason, his business experience popped into my head, so I voted for him. Plus, I love his voice. He sounds awesome. That's not a reason to vote for the man...but I do love his voice. So, I went to the doctor this morning. I am sick. It's bronchitis and ear infections. I hope the antibiotics do the trick. Good luck white blood cells!

Wednesday reflections

This was one of those mornings when I woke up late and I never really recovered from that. I left 20 minutes late, but I only ended up being 10 minutes late. I guess the traffic must have been lighter. I had one of those mornings where I cry all the way to work. It’s beyond me why I feel like blogging about this. It’s the same old problem...there’s not enough money and I don’t really have what I want in my life. Will it change? It never does. Is it worthy of hope? Can I expect it to get better? Only 28 more payments until my credit cards are paid off. I’ll get there. That will make things better. Really, it would. Well, there’s more on my mind than I’m willing to write about. Maybe I’ll get to it later. We’ll see.

Happy New Year

This poor little blog was neglected when I was so busy in December. But I made it through the holiday. I’ll have to post some of the pictures from the Christmas trip soon. What will this year bring? We’ll see!
