Ms. Goodneedl...Thanks for your comments, everyone.<br /><br />Ms. Goodneedle - always happy to hear from another NC blogger<br /><br />Patti - There's nothing more I can do except hope for the best. Pipeline is repaired but still no rain in the forecast.<br /><br />Kim - Indeed. That's all we can do at this point.<br /><br />Troutbirder - I think we may have seen democracy at its worst this election.<br /><br />KB - We rarely let the tanks get below half full. And yes, two things always come to mind in shortages. 1) Can we evacuate if necessary? and 2) Can we get Lucy to the animal hospital if necessary. We still have no rain in the forecast and there are several fires in the mountains. None of consequence around here, thank goodness.<br /><br />Nance - I fear the 2020 election process will start before the inauguration of our next President.<br /><br />Robin - Yes, the gods do seem to be pretty angry at NC.<br /><br />Barbara - Keeping one's own life afloat is a good goal.<br /><br />Jan - Yes, that extra glass helps<br /><br />Linthead - I have some of those relatives myself.<br /><br />Bug - I hope you are right. But I am very afraid...<br /><br />NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-28435855830421501782016-11-07T10:38:41.771-05:002016-11-07T10:38:41.771-05:00Tomorrow I have to work, go to a meeting at church...Tomorrow I have to work, go to a meeting at church, and go out to get Mexican food for dinner with Dr. Linthead up there.

NEO will do its part, but OH is such a disappointment anymore. Sigh.<br /><br />We are also suffering with multiple races, hence lots of ads, etc. My husband longs for a more Canadian election with its 7 week limit on campaigning.

I hope that you have gas in your car.<br /><br />Lucy does look very regal. Aren't our pups lucky to be able to live above all the insanity of our political world. I am scared about Tuesday, and also scared about what will happen if the loser declares that the election was rigged and doesn't accept the results.<br /><br />Ah well - I'll go immerse myself in mother nature. That's how I get through these sorts of things.<br /><br />Take care of yourself. I'm glad that you voted. I did too.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-22966906801015553512016-11-05T10:32:42.652-04:002016-11-05T10:32:42.652-04:00Good advice for these awful awful days.

I'm in Kentucky for the weekend, and welcome the break from all the news coverage - But driving here yesterday, it seemed politics dominated every single radio station and there were signs on every thing! This is another time that I truly envy Lucy and all the other canines! Lets BOTH hope for the best on Tuesday!!! ~Kim at Golden Pines~https://www.blogger.com/profile/02001523468339091407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-2204609639779703072016-11-04T16:46:55.935-04:002016-11-04T16:46:55.935-04:00I thought of you when I read about the pipe line a...I thought of you when I read about the pipe line and hoped that the citizens learned from the last time. Sadly it seems not. So sorry you have to go through this again.<br />Ah to be a dog and be totally unaware of all this political crap. But I suppose they pick up on our angst a bit. If so, Lucy and Callie seem to be hiding it well. <br />NC has some important sway in this election. Bet you are glad your part is over. <br /> Arkansas Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156004753267665579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-57884864089480307942016-11-04T16:29:04.889-04:002016-11-04T16:29:04.889-04:00I concur with everything you have stated, also bei...I concur with everything you have stated, also being from NC.
