Just hanging out being a little down. Mood
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 | A General Update story

Just hanging out being a little down today. I was surfing the web and found a couple of sites that were dedicated to the idea of voting "None of the above". I thought this was very interesting as I really do not have any confidence in any of the current choices for President. By the way I also went down yesterday and updated my voter registration. I asked them what it would take to have "none of the above" put on all the ballots. They told me it was not neccessary because leaving it blank would do the same thing. I explained to them that it would not. If I just left it blank they would count it as an undervote which means to they Election Officials that I either did not understand or missed it. Well that is not what I want to do. I want the election officials to know that I voted, I am smart enough to not over look a vote and that I am not happy with any of my choices. Any how I was happy to find that there is a grass roots movement out there to make this choice available on all ballots in all states for all elections. I think this is a great idea.

 

My fingers seem to be getting worse. Every day when I wake up they are swollen, stiff and sore. They hurt so when I wash and dry them. I gues it is time to have another MRI and see if anything shows up yet. My back has not been good the last few days either. Have had to ice it most every day at least once. Maybe it is just the weather. Cardiologist told me again yesterday that I need to get more exercise. Duh........He just doesn't get it that the exercise is what makes my back hurt..... I did make it all the way to the end of the street and back this morning. Duke was a little slow by the time we made it home. He has hip displasia and does not make it much further than I do. LOL

 

Just hanging out feeling a little down and wishing that I was a little more  social. May be I/we would have more friends.

 

My DS site is a little screwed up right now. I wonder if it is my computer or the site. The left side column is OK but the rest is way down the page. Oh well I guess DS will catch it if it is there problem.

    My exercise usually consist of stretching stuff. I started tai chi and it mostly about relaxing your muscles. It seems to help.

    I have carpal tunnel and realized that satting in my recliner typing on the laptop was giving me problems a few months ago. It is ok now, and I try to pace myself so much better now.
