Our main accomplishment of the day was voting. And, we almost forgot to do that. We are sort out of the loop when it comes to what is happening in Tennessee. The reason for that we aren't up to snuff on TN happenings is that we don't watch Tennessee TV stations. We watch TV from Huntsville, AL. They aren't having elections today so we weren't getting constant TV messages about voting. Now, I will say that we have been bombarded with voting literature, but the election day date isn't always hightlighted in that literature...usually what is stressed is something negative about who they are running against! Last week we mentioned to each other that election day was today. But the day slipped up on us and as Woody said, "It didn't seem like Thursday!" Being retired days seem to run together...one very much the same as another. The way we remembered was that I turned on the computer and opened up Facebook and I saw a post where someone mentioned voting today. Well, at that time there was still more than an hour till the polls closed so...off we went. Our polling place is only about five minutes from our house so not a problem getting there with time to spare. I guess from the reaction of the folk helping at our polling place not a lot had voted today.
