Election

Well, we have a new president. I am interested to see what he will do with the power he has gained. And Prop 8 has passed in Cali. I hope it sticks. Not that I have much objection to gays getting married, I just feel like I have a right not to want my kids to learn about gay marriage in kindergarten and the right to have my church stay open even though we won't allow gay couples to marry there. Separation of church and state people. First amendment. Freedom of religion... Ring a bell? Anyway, that's it for now. I'm not one for politics. It makes my head hurt and makes me just worry about the future more than I should. Trust the prophet and all will be well. God Bless America.

Rain

Man do I love the rain! Most people had cloudy, rainy weather but it is my favorite kind. It finally rained today for more than 5 minutes. I was enjoying all the thunder as well. Rain is just beautiful. Although, there is a downside, which is that I will have to start walking to school, instead of riding my bike, when it rains. So that'll take more time. But I am trying to really enjoy the rain before it starts snowing everyday. In Paradise it would sometimes rain for weeks at a time without letting up and I miss that weather! I can't wait until I can enjoy a good rainstorm and not have that nagging feeling in the back of my mind telling me I should be doing schoolwork. In fact, I can't wait until I can enjoy anything without that nagging feeling. Anyway, just thought I'd share my love of rainy weather!
