Voting

I've gotten so many personally written postcards stating that public record indicates my husband hasn't voted and asking him to do so.. A person even drove to our home today in a secluded rural dirt Rd to encourage him to vote. He brought his kid and was freaking out about his kid getting fingers dirty when I offered to let him pet a chicken. I admire these efforts but good grief, my DH will still be looking for Biden's name on the ballot and if you come to the country with your kid and let him out of car with 20 chickens in a strangers yard, let the poor kid pet one. Lol

    These types of things just make your day so much worse. It is one of those things that just makes you feel sad because your loved one is no longer capable of participating. And angry that the rest of the world is going on about their business.

    Good grief! I'm sorry for this rude man interrupting your day. I had my husband's name taken off the voter rolls. It was sad but there is no way he could vote any longer.

    Thank you for that suggestion. Another woman came on our property today. I don't mind but it agitates him having strangers show up. I'll look into what you did. That might be an option next time.
