Adventures at Target

The other day Scott and I were at Target and he was trying on some clothes in the dressing room. I told him to come out and show me how it looked. That's when he discovered that when you shut the dressing room door, it doesn't open again. He tried to squeeze under but his head wouldn't even fit.Then he thought about just pushing over the cheap cardboard walls of the dressing room. Luckily we figured out that if he grabbed the handle from the inside and pushed, and if I grabbed from the outside and pulled, the thing would pop open.

Moral of the story: if you're at the Lakewood Target, don't go in the dressing room, especially if you're alone!

Gratitude

November is Thanksgiving Month so I am going to try to blog about some things I am thankful for. Since yesterday was election day I have been thinking about how grateful I am to be able to vote, and for the country we live in.

I know to some people voting doesn't even seem like a privilege, in fact some people don't vote at all because they figure their vote doesn't matter against the millions of other votes. But think about this- If all the people who don't vote did, would it change our elections? Every vote counts.

Our forefathers fought and died so that we could have a free country, and choose for ourselves who our leaders would be and what laws would govern us. And our foremothers fought for the right of us women to be able to do the same. I am so thankful for their courage and strength to do that for us.

So even if the person that I voted for doesn't win, or that proposition that I voted against passes, I am still grateful for the opportunity to make my voice heard, and for the wonderful country we live in.
