Election Day
My son called me around 5:00AM – said, “Anytime your ready to ‘go VOTE’ – we can go ?” Since I was not quite ready – said, “Pick me up in a half hour?” Al, was right on time and it felt good to start the ‘day in the dark’ and see what is happening on the streets in the neighborhood, at an early hour?
They had just processed “100 voters” and it looked like a good steady stream of people arriving. The man in line behind me , motioned to my son to go ahead of him, so he could be with me, together. He said he had already been to work – opened up the store – got everyone assigned to the duties for the day – and it didn’t matter to him if Al, went ahead of him in line? – Since he was self-employed! I’m the inquiring type – had to ask – what type of business he owned? “A Bakery Store!” “That would be one of my favorites!” I just love – cinnamon buns and coconut custard cream pie. I don’t visit bakery shops, like I used to do – have to watch my girlish figure – seems like – it just – got up and went!
When , there seems to be a long wait – waiting in long lines – it is good to say a few kind words – time just seems to fly by – everyone starts their day with a nice smiling face!
