You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.

With the kids back in school and the upcoming election, I've been completely consumed with things not related to crafts. To match my current obsession I, made this shirt. I made it with some old tees and reverse applique.

Jim said I shouldn't get into politics on my blog, but whatever. I've been beyond disappointed with the Bush years, so voting for a Republican was out of the question for me. I think Obama recognizes what's right and wrong about where our country is headed and I think he's smart enough to get us on a better path. One interesting thing that I've learned in my endless web searching on all things related to the campaign, is that Bill Ayers grew up in the home directly behind the home that I lived in as a child. He would have been on the run from the law by the time I was born, but I think his parents still lived there. Feel free to draw you own conclusions at this point about my character and associations. I think it probably explains a lot about my left leaning tendencies. Who knows what they were putting in their Halloween candy? Was it laced with liberal? This is probably why Jim told me to keep politics off the blog.

I'm deeply entrenched in Halloween costumes. Nothing extra creative, but they will sure be cute. I'll be back sooner that later.
