The Election has come and gone. There were so many things I wanted to say but none of it was different from everyone else's rhetoric. They looked empty up there on the page so I never hit the publish button. You can thank me later.
Just when you can't imagine finances getting much worse they are trying to raise the income taxes and now, in Utah, they are trying to increase the food tax. Politicians consider it just a little here and there; they don't seem to get it. We've already cut here and there so many times we are out of heres and theres to take from. One would never have thought in all the roads and by-ways of life you would end up without enough to comfortably sit back and just wander and enjoy the scenery.
I wish we had made different choices earlier but we had no one to give us advise and direction in our early adulthood; and surviving Vietnam we just wanted to create a basic life and live it the best we could. You never anticipate that circumstances will occur that stop you in your tracks, that take away what you had and diminishes what you can achieve.
The most important thing we have never lost is our optimism; smiling through the tears; pushing forward against all odds.
