Ok Ok I missed a day.  Well yesterday I played on the computer, watched tv, took a nap and knitted.  that about sums up my life in a nutshell but I love it.  The freedom to do nothing.  Today was a special election here in MA.  It was a very close race between two candidates that I felt both were good.  It was hard to decide.  But I did.  So off I went to vote.

One of the nice things about living here is that MA people taking voting seriously.  At least it appears that way so far.  A good two weeks before any elections posters go up on almost every main intersection telling people to go and vote on such and such date.  These are not advertising for any candidate, it is just telling people to go vote.  It is a constant reminder.  I like that.  So today we elected a Republican Senator Scott Brown.  I did not vote for him but I am sure that he will do well as our senator.  Both candidates were good.  I was concerned for the health care bill so now we will wait and see what happens in Washington with that.  This is a great country where one can cast a vote and win or lose, we

still get a voice.  So I wish our new senator the best.
