Weekend has arrived!

Hello there,

I thought that maybe when this election ended all this political smack-talk would end too. That must have just been my optimistic nature talking because it hasn't... At all!! I voted for Bush because his views on things that effected my life directly (and that I cared about the most) were more similar to mine. Although he could use a few grammar lessons and more than likely some sort of personal voice coach, I admire his faith and his willingness to speak about it. Kerry's not a bad man. He actually has a lot of good points, but not points that I, personally, cared too much about. I think that people (of both political affiliations) should just stop their crapping and realize that what's done is done. There's no need to yack about it for the next 4 years. Who knows if it was "the right thing"? Who knows if it was "the wrong thing"? No one... except for God, of course... so let's quit our crapping and support the man that the majority of our fellow American's want as our national leader. And in all honestly, if all these people are upset about specific issues (education, job security, constitutional bans...etc....) they should get off their lazy American tookus's, stop waiting for one guy to do all the work, and start making difference themselves!

Anyway, that's enough of that. Moving on...

I have such a headache tonight. Which doesn't shock me in any way considering it is the 1st week of the month! Not only does that mean 3-4 days of hassle for me, it means 3-4 blog entries full of long-winded, over-emotional, sometimes illogical rants for you! Compliments of the Menstrual Cycle!!

I have to work tomorrow. It's Hallmark's National Christmas Open House. It should be interesting to say the least. Crazy women in their 50's eating shortbread cookies and drinking cider while browsing the Keepsake Ornaments and getting crumbs in the Christmas cards. Luckily, I don't work till 4. Hopefully I will miss the super energetic pushy crowd that will be waiting for the door to unlock come 10AM asking about the non-existant early bird specials. The evening crowd is always far more subdued. I think I will always be a part of the evening crowd.

I saw another one of those sunsets tonight. The kind that God paints specifically for me to see. Since we are on the verge of winter, the sun is setting early. 5:00 sometimes! Tonight, on my way to work, I was awed by beautiful streams of pink and orange fading into the denim sky. There wasn't a cloud to be found and the bright red sun was fading under the horizon of newly barren trees. I almost feel silly describing it to you because I know I can hardly do it justice. As I was driving, I wished I had my camera with me so I could document the sight and share the beauty of God's Canvas with others. Oh well, you'll just have to take my word for it and/or see it for yourself sometime :)

Ok, this headache is starting to get the best of me and being that it is nearing 1:30 AM I should really head upstairs and get to bed. I hope you all have wonderful weekends! I think I may go and see "Ray" sometime this weekend. I've never been to a movie by myself, but I think I'd be OK doing it. Here's hoping...

In Him,
Tempa
