Scary Times

 Welp it was such a busy month that I missed a post! To be fair to myself, I did think about posting and how I was running out of to days to get one in for October...but I just didn't post 😅. 


Part of the reason I was so busy was prepping to the upcoming general election. I have really gotten passionate about getting and supporting the election process (especially in Georgia). This has taken several forms but most recently & consistently it's been through working the polls. I've done just about every job except Manager & Assistant Manager (though I have been asked). 


While I truly do enjoy the job this particular election has felt...scary and off putting. It's become the norm to be mean and rude to those who may not share your views. Also, while I am favoring one candidate over another I'm seeing friends disintegrate relationships and dive deeper into divide this election. 


It's scary stuff. Whatever the world we have on November 11th (once all the votes have been certified) I hope it will be a world that we can build on to feel safer for most.


Until next post....laters

Three states, One Girl

No, this is not the beginning of a bad joke. It's actually the beginning of a cool trip. I had a conference in Boston a couple of weeks ago. That was my first time in MA, while there I took the opportunity to check off a couple of additional NE states that I'd never been too. Depending on who you ask NY may or may not be considered NE but in any case previously I'd only been as far north as CT. With this trip I also saw NH & ME. I actually had to look up the abbreviation for Maine because I'd never been and couldn't remember what it was 😅.  Coastal Maine was beautiful. I've obviously been on the east coast waters before but seeing it as a lush green forestscape was another thing entirely. I definitely see why it's the setting of so many Stephen King stories, it's hauntingly beautiful. New Hampshire was a bit more rustic than I expected in the most delightful way. Massachusetts (Boston) was fun to explore and I spent so much time doing something I ne...
