so this whole obama thing makes me want to gag. I even shed tears tonight. I know it sounds totally retarded but I am very passionate about our country and my gut feeling tells me he is bad news...I don't really even know why this is bugging me so bad- it just is. I just feel so much pressure from the changing values of this world-and it really is scary. I am writing Oprah a letter too- she seriously bugs the crap out of me right now...and I used to just love her- I think she is funny and all but enough is enough- At least it is looking like Prop 8 will pass in California.
ok I will stop for the moment. I am not having the best night. I am feeling a little anxious- I just feel so much overload from all the expectations, the crumbling morals around us, being a mom, doing my best- and when it comes right down to it I am just missing mom a lot. She would always tell me, "everything is going to be ok April" and oh how I long to hear that right now from her and only her.
so since I am trying to be extra grateful this month- I better end this post with this link to Joette's post today. It was what I needed to read tonight.

April, Joettes words are beautiful, thanks for sharing. I feel the same way you do tonight, and really, most of the time. One of our High Councilmen spoke recently on how fear is the opposite of faith. I am trying to remember that in my daily life. If I find any great wisdom on that topic I will pass it on!
I am experiencing the same feelings tonight. I too was crying when they announced that he won. You are so good at expressing your feelings... all I can say is that I am having the exact same feelings as you are about this man and our country. I guess we need to just hope and pray that he'll surprise us and do a good job.... that's all we can do.
Oh, and I hate Oprah! Always have! I probably shouldn't say hate, but I don't know what other word to use... And I hated her, er, disliked her even more when she endorsed Obama way back when. I knew right then that he was going to beat Hillary and even McCain. Why do people worship her so much!?!?! it bugs me so bad...
I don't know you from Adam, but promise me that you will NEVER run for public office.
Dear Mommystired,
You should get to know me- you would probably really like me-
and I have actually thought about running for public office- maybe when my kids are older- it appears we have different political views...and that is perfectly ok.
Actually I am a conservative. You are just too abrasive for me. You blog is so filled with angst. It seems like it would be exhausting being you.
And if you do run for office…delete this blog.
Tell mommystired to mind her own business. If she doesn't like what you have to say then stop reading your blog.
