Thinking quietly
The thought came to me today that elected democrats in office, have certainly lived and breathed their roles as elected officials representing Democrats everywhere. Wow, I think they have gone above set expectations and achieved a certain standard that I think sets them apart from ordinary senators and representatives. They have accomplished so much, in spite of adversarial attacks on a daily basis, if not more.
It's been a harrowing 10 months in progress. And a lot of books published by the most unlikely authors. The national election is almost here. Covid-19 is still on the rise. Unemployment is at unheard of levels of danger. We have an unhinged person occupying the WH and it scares me daily, to read on the web or hear anything about them.
I have not seen a ballot in the mailbox yet, but I did get two separate voter guides (lots of stuff to read).
It's possible the ballot will show up by next week, maybe? Not sure. I'm guessing it will come toward the last of the month.
But, yes, that's what I got to wondering about today, how our elected officials have been working relentlessly with hardly any break in pace. I find that humbling that they do all they can. I feel SO tired for them, just thinking about it. But grateful for all they do and continue to do.
