The people have spoken and it looks like they no longer like the democratic position. Not only did they take the Senate, they also steamrolled in Governor races winning in democratic stronghold such as Massachusetts, Maryland and even the home state of the Pres, Illinois! Here in Colorado we ousted our incumbent senator and the Governor race is too close to call. We also threw out all those democrats that stole our gun rights and now control the state senate. Nationwide the GOP also killed them in the House, overall a great day for America. It’s good to see people finally wake up. Now the challenge will be for the republicans to actually get something done which won’t be easy with the Pres having his veto pen, but they have to try. It should be easier though without that obstructionist Harry Reid in charge of which bills get brought up. There are 373 sitting on his desk that he refused to even let the senate vote on, thank God he’s gone!
Now to the day, today I’m off to Eagle, up by Vail, for a Costco meeting at 10am and then hope to be back in town by noon. The boys had a good day at school and Lori was super busy as usual as Tuesday is clinic day. Dr. R wasn’t feeling well and even had to lie down in one of the rooms for 45 minutes. Hope Lori doesn’t get sick.
I did pick up 20 jars of canned applesauce from the lady who cans food for me. I gave her the empty jars, a few bottles of wine and $30 (she only asked for $20!) for 20 jars and that was with her buying the apples! Canning is a lost art it seems and we’re sure glad we have Debbie.
Time to run so I can drink my coffee and watch the rest of the returns. Hopefully this is a fresh start for America. Take care and God Bless.
