for our service men and women.

Your vote DOES count!

  5. I will vote for sure! Our polling station is in the community center here in our neighborhood. Then I'm off to run errands!
    Wisconsin could determine this election, so I hope there's a huge turnout!

    Our Veterans have been so mistreated and it breaks my heart.

  6. Love the "vote for a veteran". I just shake my head at people who are not even registered to vote! My neighbors with 4 kids never have voted.....really?!! Drives me nuts. I think of my ancestors who fought in the Rev War on this day.

  7. I used to go bright and early but I'm trying to vote later in the day. The lines, the lines, the lines....

  8. We are headed out to vote in a little bit. Our veterans deserve far more respect than they have been given. When a solider serves, it affects his whole family. Hugs for you serving these heroes. xoxo

  10. I voted first thing this morning before I headed to work. It amazes me the number of people who don't vote. I believe it is the right and responsibility of every person to exercise their right to vote and to make their decision with much prayer. Our veterans are owed a debt that we cannot repay, but we certainly need to do a better job of TRYING to repay them. They fought for the right that so many people won't even exercise today. What a shame. VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!!!

  11. Early voted here and the line was all the way out to the parking lot. It was like, stepping out of the car and being right in line. God Bless our Vets!! They need and earned our respect and care! Without them we have no freedom to vote! xo

  14. Joe and I went and voted about 9:30 before heading off for our day. There was no line and we were #134 and #135. My doctor was right behind me at #136. So sad. There should have been well over 200 people by that time of day. But we did our part. Thank you for all you do for our vets. Taking Joe to the VA Hospital for his appointment tomorrow. We know and understand how much you do for our heroes.

  15. I voted. My husband voted. My Daddy voted. My Mama voted. My son voted. My daughter voted. My daughter-in-law voted. My son-in-law voted.
    My Daddy is a veteran of WWII. We all count it a privilege and an honor to vote.
    We love our veterans....and since my son-in-law is a State Trooper, we love our men in blue, too.
    Proud to cast our votes on November 8, 2016.
    May God Bless America.

  17. I have already voted (did it early). This election is so important. I'm anxious to know the outcome. If the person that I voted for is winning, I'll probably stay up late for the official announcement. If the other person is winning, then I'll just go to bed feeling defeated (and sad). Ha! Speaking of feeling patriotic and respect for veterans, have you seen the movie Hacksaw Ridge? It is SO wonderful! It's based on a true story of someone that served in WWII. He was very religious and refused to even hold a gun. It's about his persistence to overcome the rules of the Army and still serve his nation with the values he believed in. He ended up becoming a war hero! I encourage you to go see it if you haven't. It's SO good. It's a bit gory to watch some of the war scenes but it really gives you the feeling of the violence of war and the risks that our veterans take in war.

  18. I voted early. It is both a privilege and a duty.

  20. I early voted. My husband is watching the results on tv, but I can't handle that stress, so I am visiting around blog land. Bless you for honoring the veterans!

  21. Great job of "nagging" my friend! :) I voted early ~ so much easier and less time consuming. It's been rainy here today and a bit cooler so I hope people really did get out there and vote!

    It breaks my heart that our military personnel are not treated well or honored as they should be. It's such a sacrifice for them to be in harm's way 24/7, be away from their families, live in a sandbox for months on end without proper food or equipment. Just the saddest thing ever! All my uncles served in WWII and thanks to God, they all returned ok.

    Hope you get some rest!

  28. I voted early. Been praying and will continue to pray for our country and the world. This is a very scary time. We as a country need to return to God. Blessings to you and yours :)

  29. Wonderful that you reach out for the vets, not enough is done for them. I am horrified by the election results, and I know you feel differently, as is your right. America does have a lot of work to do, and I am thankful for the grace that Clinton and Obama have shown today in moving forward. I can only pray that the president-elect will do the same.

  31. Getting my vote in gave me a huge smile of relief to have it over. I enjoyed the whole thing, but after over a year, I was getting tired of politics!

  32. An awesome post. when girlfriend was treated at the VA in Denver as was my late father-in-law. Some many Veteran's were so ill and so sad while others, like the WWII Vets were, as you mentioned earlier, so proud. I am proud to say my phamily voted. Now we must pray for our country and the latest president and his phamily too.
