Maybe, hopefully. Lines in GA have been MANY HOURS long. I'm heading out to wait in the first wave of a line before the polls open -- unless it's packed. I can't wait that long in the morning because my dang bladder. If the morning is that crowded, I'll go back in the afternoon and try my luck then. Fingers crossed.
UPDATE: Back from voting. In line at 7:15 (first in line) and 10 minutes later it was around the building (about 40 people). Polls opened at 8 o'clock and it went smoothly. Most everyone in line in a mask - woo hoo!
Coaching was nice. More validating than informative, but I needed it. Validating my mind shift of looking at this time like an experiment. Getting to have stretches of time when I get to see exactly what I want, with no space sharing with ANYONE. How deep diving into my Enneagram number is helping me understand myself and make changes with a lot more clarity. Things like that. My coach is changing her focus and probably won't be doing this kind of coaching come 2021. Maybe that will be a good reason for a split to do something different for me. Who knows. I'm not worried about it (yet, LOL).
Geez -- side note, I'm not sure I'm up early enough to go vote first thing. THIS is the morning Duke sleeps until 5:30. He's been up, at the latest, by 4:30 for a month.
I finished The Vanishing Half (Brit Bennett) and it was good. Interesting story, characters and reads very easily. My girlfriend from college days sent me a couple of books she read -- started one last night and can't remember the title. More on the new book tomorrow -- total fun beach read.
I saw an Instagram recommendation for Deaf U on Netflix. Follows deaf students at a college for hearing impaired. Stopped about halfway into the first episode. It's all about hooking up, mean girls, "frat" boys, etc. It's snarky and stupid. Total teenage drama and I'd be bummed my kid acted that way and then said those things on TV. Can you tell I don't like it?
Today is up in the air since my priority is VOTING. If that goes smoothly, I'll head to Gibbs Gardens this afternoon for a little nature time. I'm feeling sluggish this week. Maybe hormones? Maybe I need a little quiet time after dog sitting and lots of activity. Not sure, but I'm not fighting it. I might get a flu shot later today too. Get all my community duties at once. I'll play it all by ear.
Tomorrow is definitely the heavy cleaning day since my car is getting serviced. Nothing but being home after it gets dropped in the morning. It always amazes me that an hour long service takes 2 hours if you're waiting and 8 hours if you aren't. Why call it an hour service? Never understand it.
BTW, still haven't heard back about a happy hour on Friday. Not that it's a big deal since "happy hour" is simply sitting in my backyard -- I'm not doing anything special, but, come on. Even hubby rolled his eyes -- yes or no, how hard is it?
UPDATE: I heard back and they are going out with other friends for a boat gathering instead. This feels crappy. If they already HAD plans, no big deal. Basically, they chose to wait and see if BETTER plans happened and ditched our invite. We haven't seen them in over 9 months AND we are working around hubby's schedule in VA (they can't do Saturdays because of college football and we can't do Sundays for NFL) which limits options a lot. I'll "get over" it and I need to focus on backup plans that are fun too -- it's a drag though. I understand boating is more fun than sitting in a backyard, but I thought the circumstances would have leaned our way. I guess I'm missing seeing people -- it's a lean couple of weeks while I'm watching so many others socialize and have fun. I'm partying too -- just PITY partying LOL.
Got to get moving and get my VOTE on. I'll need to look under a lot of rocks for HAPPY today - hah. Heading to Trump land to cast my dissension vote. You should've see the trucks in the parking lot for the primary -- all flagged up and decorated. Anyway ... stay well. Later gators.
