I Did It...

Vote that is... Turns out it was a waste of time because Carolyn and my votes kind of negated each other, so we really could have both just stayed home and it would have had literally ZERO impact... for the rest of the votes, I just voted against the incumbent. I think more people should stop voting along party lines, and just start voting against the incumbent for a few years and maybe they will get the hint... Anyway, I'm just glad I got it over with today, even though I did have to wait in line for over an hour, of course 'poll workers' aren't the brightest lot in the world, if you get my drift... :)

Bo got a hair cut last week, Tanner looks like he needs one...

Taylor in her costume...

Everyone...

Ready to go... We really splurged on "costumes" this year as you can tell...

So everyone got a huge sack of candy and other treats and are all eating them now... :)

Mindless Online Activity...

Try it...

I've Got Nothing...

To post that is... Oh, I've got plenty to say, don't get me wrong... :) Is it Saturday already?? I've GOT to go to the dump today, my trailer is piled high with crap that has been sitting there waiting for a trip to the dump for months now, and the kids are going to be wanting to go on a hay ride Friday, so I suppose I'll go get that chore over with sometime today... I've also not taken any pictures this month for some reason, or at least very few, I go through phases...

I'm also STILL undecided believe it or not, of course I'm sure everyone knows by now that I can't stand either one of the choices, I keep just trying to figure out which one is the lesser of the two evils... Everytime I think, okay, I'll vote for McCain, I come across articles like this:

Make-Believe Maverick...

Most of that I was already aware of, which is why I can't really stand either one of them... Yeah, I understand Obama is all about Socialism, and yeah, I really would rather see divided government than to see Obama, Pelosi and Reid have the majority they need to ram whatever they choose through Congress... I really don't want Obama to be able to appoint anyone to the Supreme Court either, because that is something that can have an impact for 30 or 40 years... I really don't want McCain to appoint anyone either though, therefore the dilemma... I also don't want McCain to attain his "prize" seeing as how he went about achieving it, I don't particularly like to award people like that with their ultimate 'reward'... I also don't like the fact that all these 'conservatives' who have been screaming about 'not voting at all', etc for months are now screaming about how bad Obama is going to be, and to 'vote for McCain'... Can you make up your mind already?? Idiots, what did they think their 'Just vote no' mentality would accomplish?? Someone IS going to win, and 'No' was never an option for actually choosing a President... Morons... So part of me thinks that whole crowd will get exactly what they deserve with the White House, the House of Representatives and a filibuster proof Senate in the hands of three of the most liberal, left leaning people in government... An Obama who may very well appoint one or two Supremes as well... I think they will get what they deserve and perhaps wake up and make some changes in 2010 after realizing that "Just vote no" doesn't quite work out for them all that well... So yeah, I'm still undecided...

Perhaps I'll take some photos for everyone's enjoyment this weekend, who knows... :)

The Difference...

I'm Freezing...

Well, not literally, but I'm cold! I don't much care for this time of year, when the transition is made from shorts to jeans and you don't know whether to turn the heat on or not... It's down to nearly freezing at night, but then gets up to the mid 70's to 80's during the day... It's like the weather can't make up it's mind or something... I do like the colors and such during fall, but I'm more of the type who if I had had a choice would hole up inside from now on until Spring... :) Ah, but that's not a choice... We did go get some pumpkins today to carve, one of the neighbor kids took Carolyn's, so we have to go get some more today, and of course the kids want to carve another one, so I suppose we'll be doing it again...

The kids with their pumpkins...

We all went out to the Etowah Indian Mounds on Saturday, Carolyn has posted the pics on Facebook... The kids want to build a mud hut out back, so we'll see how long that interest lasts... :) Other than that, pretty much just life in general around here, I can't believe that the year is nearly over though... I am looking forward to seeing what happens on November 4th, I just hope we know who won the next day rather than some long, drawn out legal thing... Tick tock, we'll soon find out... :)

The McCain-Palin Mob

Of course the far right is just as effing loony!! Jeez... If we could just eliminate the far right AND the far left everything would be just fine... Imo... :)

Howard Stern Exposes Clueless Obama Supporters

Wow! Yet another reason why some people should NOT be allowed to vote... Another thing that kills me is these clueless nitwits who keep screaming about the 'right to vote', there is NO constitutional right to vote, and SCOTUS reaffirmed that not long ago... Idiots...

Field Trip...

So yeah, same old thing going on around here... Yesterday I went with Taylor and her class to the Bartow History Center on a field trip, for some reason I only took about 3 pictures...

Off we go...

Inside the center learning about the Cherokee Indians that used to live around here before the Federal Government made them all go to Oklahoma... :)

After we got home, our neighbor took Carolyn and Taylor to a horse farm down the road...

They had a good time, now Taylor and the boys want to take horse riding lessons... So I suppose we'll sign them up, I always enjoyed being around horses myself...

Other than that, same old thing going on around here... The kids are off of school tomorrow, so we are going to take them out to the Etowah Indian Mounds in Cartersville for a family excursion/learning trip... :) I did finally get the rails around the deck, but for some reason I've not been taking many pictures lately, I go through phases where I'll take tons of them, then practically none...

The next few weeks should also be interesting, I'll be glad though when the election has come and gone myself, I'm rather tired of it all... Seems like this presidential election has been going on for nearly two years?!? I suppose it will all be over soon enough though, I'm sure half the country, if not a higher percentage, will be glued to the TV on November 4th along with me waiting to see the results... :)

Funny...

Why The Messiah Will Win...

Likely in a landslide...

Not Me...

Up for swimming that is, not that I don't like swimming, but it's too late in the year and I think the water is FREEZING! The kids don't seem to mind, even though they also admitted that the water was freezing... Tonya and Billy and their kids came up today for a visit, and it wasn't long before Kristen, Chance and Tanner were in the water...

I was cold just watching them... Of course I think they were as well, but swim they did...

Taylor and Karen soon followed... I thought that would be it, but they were all back in about an hour later...

Tonya and Billy

We had a great time visiting with them! We just have to quit going so long between visits though! Kind of funny when you talk to some people though, they assume that we all live in "Atlanta" so we must all get together often, I'm always like, "Well, Joshua lives about 45 minutes to an hour away, Marci lives about 40 minutes away, and Tonya and Billy are over an hour away." So it's not like we are all right across the street from each other... :)

Louis farrakhan Calls OBAMA the messiah!

You just KNOW that Obama wishes this moron would shut up!

26 Years Later...

Whew!

Not sure why I ever started to begin with, I suppose I thought it was cool at 15?!?!?

Visit...

Uncle Tom and Aunt Esther are in town visiting with Terry, and they stopped by for a bit this evening. It was great visiting with them, it has been a few years since we'd seen them. Although, on Boyd's side of the family, I've seen them a LOT more than I have any of the others... They came to our wedding, and I suppose they have visited us a couple of other times since then. Anyway, for some reason, I only took two pictures, so here they are...

Polls...

Do they even mean anything? It really depends on who is taking the poll... Take a look at these unscientific polls...

MSNBC, or as it should be called, MSOBAMA... As they are clearly in the tank for The Messiah...

Here's one from the DrudgeReport... I'm not so sure the readers of the DrudgeReport are as biased as MSNBC readers, but I could be wrong...

Anyway, what a huge difference, each favoring a different VP as the so-called winner. I don't think any of them are that accurate. First of all, who even participates in polls, not the two I have listed, but the so-called 'scientific' polls? I NEVER do, anyone who calls me, I immediately tell them I'm not interested and hang up not even lingering to hear the response. Some polls do seem to be fairly accurate at times, but at other times, the polls by the same polling companies are way off, so is it just coincidence when they are fairly accurate?? Who knows. I still say this is anyone's game, and no one will know until Novemeber 4th or 5th, if not later... The next 32 days will certainly be interesting, that I do know. I'll just be glad when it's over, I just can't believe that out of 300+/- million people in this country, these are the two choices that we have... Wow!!
