Great Birthday!!

New car! New car! New car!  That was one of my presents from the hubby for my birthday (the others were a camera and riding lessons).

The car was really unexpected, but it is the one I have wanted for a few years now - right color, brand new, under warranty, with a rear entertainment system for the kids and built-in computer system that I can talk to in order to change the station, bring up the navigation system, etc.  It will even make phone calls hands-free and read texts that come into my phone when I'm in the car. I definitely got REALLY spoiled this year.

Finally - Fall!

It finally feels like Fall! Autumn is one of my favorite seasons (the other is Spring).  I am not an intense heat or intense cold type of person but I love all the new growth in the spring and how everything turns golden and red in the Fall with the cool mornings and evenings.

Football games in the cool evenings! The crackle of the leaves as you step on them! I could do without my dog barking at every leaf as it falls off the tree at the start of Fall, until she gets used to it, but otherwise - I love it!

Politics

With all the political upheaval going on right now about the national debt, the government shutdown, immigration, and the Affordable Care Act, I keep it limited to the my political blog (which isn't this one) or my personal Facebook and twitter accounts.

If people want to talk about immigration attorney los angeles or the state of debt of our nation or anything else that tends to rile people up in one way or the other, I don't discuss it with neutral parties.

Do you include politics on your personal blog?
