OBAMA WON

(7117 entries)
Personally I thought Romney had a chance. I don’t know if he would have been a good president or not. There is so much I don’t know. All I know about both candidates is what I hear on TV or radio. Is there anywhere to find out the truth? Has Obama been a good president? Some say yes; others say no!
I was surprised that the few waiters I talked to didn’t vote and/or knew anything about the elections.
I spent the day in Daytona Beach, Florida. It was warm. I switched from my jeans to capris. I went to World Market. It’s a wonderful store with all types of products from all over the world. I went to Barnes and Noble. I spent a couple of hours there choosing books. I had a coffee and finished the third book in the 39 CLUES series. Of course I bought the fourth. They are really easy to read and very interesting. I went to Hobby Lobby but for whatever reason I was disappointed. I looked at the Grand Calibur. It was 139. I thought I could get it much cheaper so I will wait. I am also not sure what colour paper I want to use for my next scrapbook so I bought nothing. I did get a glass "container and some glass "beads." I will put the beads in the container and then stand some pens up inside. I saw it at a store and thought it was cool. 
I have a personal problem. It’s happened before. I feel like I have to make but can’t. I push and nothing comes out. I think my hemorrhoids are sticking out but I’m not sure. I don’t want to keep pushing because that might make my hemorhhoids worse. At other times I finally make but it is very uncomfortable until I do. I am sure this is more than you ever wanted to know.
I had supper at LONGHORNS. It was delicious. I’ve had steaks a few nights in a row. I LOVE steak and we hardly ever go out for steak.
Tomorrow I will drive to the condo. Hubby is going to play golf so I won’t rush. I’ll get up slowly, have breakfast in the hotel and then drive South. Home sweet home!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you take Metamucil. My sister used to have that problem, but since her doctor recommended she take metamucil every day, she hasn’t had any trouble at all in that regard. I think Obama has been a great president and am soooo happy and relieved that he’s been re-elected. hugs, Nicky

Mmmm steak! No reason not to enjoy it. Glad you are in a warm place. It sounds wonderful. Happy last day driving.

I’m glad Obama won. How can people not know about the election or not vote? That’s all they have been talking about for the last 2 years!! Have you tried suppositories? They relieve the hemorroids and make the stool softer so it comes out easier.

Glad your trip continues to go smoothly!

It’s entirely possible that your waiters are illegal aliens and couldn’t have voted any way. It’s also possible that they are not supposed to discuss politics with patrons.

:*)) I love seeing your new entries, knowing you are safe and well. Re: the difficulty going potty. Perhaps it’s diet? Do you take in enough fiber? You can try Prune juice, LOL. Maybe if you can’t help this yourself, ask the Dr.? BigHUgz. and Happy trip going home!!! :*))

Gray Tabby is right use stool softeners, that can help tremendously. Also some Metamucil will help get you going. Steak sounds yummy. Love,

Driving can certain cause hemorrhoids to flare up. Many people don’t know that witch hazel (which is stocked in the drug isles next to alcohol and hydrogen peroxide) is a very inexpensive and effective means of shrinking aggrevated hemorrhoids. Just wet a cotton ball with the witch hazel and than swab your hemorrhoids a few times a day and/or after each time you go to the bathroom. It also helps relieve the burning and itching. Likely, taking a long trip can cause constipation. It’s a good idea to try a stool softener. If that doesn’t work, you may need a laxative. But please check with the pharmacist to find one that is gentle, okay?

I think we all have a responsibility to become well informed on such matters, at keast in our own country and in the case of USA too (as what happens there affects the whole world). Media and polls are unreliable….we must observe for ourselves. I am delighted about the US results…I love Obama and all he stands for. hugs p
