One and done. Big lines this morning...out the door when I got there and still out the door when I left. Parking lot is full. Stressful this year, but I feel good about my vote. I hope you do, too. #IVoted #ShowMeYourSticker #DoTheRightThing

#gratitude30 #words #vote Nothing is more important than this today. Thanks to Penzey‘s Spices, I‘ve had large and small stickers that I‘ve used since my last order arrived to wear proudly. Heading to the polls in an hour.

alisiakae I discovered Penzey‘s after the Women‘s March, I am now a loyal customer! 💙💙💙💙 5y
Lynnsoprano @4thhouseontheleft I‘ve been a customer for a while now. It was sad to see the anger and venom when Bill Penzey began his political FB posts after the last presidential election. I‘m sure they lost some customers, but I‘ll never be one of them 💙💙 5y
alisiakae @Lynnsoprano if they lost some, I bet they gained more! 5y

False. If you want to be informed, GO to the rallies, primaries, caucuses, and conventions yourself. Sieze truth and trust others will seize it in your absence. 📺🔫

I was liking the history facts, but then the book started should-ing upon the reader over and over.

Meh.

and after a long winter nap, I read a bit, and then I take my online class, and then go to work and make tip money. oh yeah, somewhere in there I make a smoothie and do yoga. #confessions

#Didyouknow, "the White House has a barber shop, doctor‘s office, dental clinic, tailor shop, beauty salon, machine shop, plumbing shop, gym, tennis court, basketball court, bowling alley, heated pool, game room, and even a movie theater."

geodynamical_nonfiction I had a dream last night I was touring the White House, and it was more grand and magnificent than in real life. There was a stage and auditorium, it was so big. I got to talk to Obama and ask him personal questions. 7y
