As wrote yesterday, the recent struggles in our life, notably with James being sick, have been very tiring. We went to bed about 9:30 last night and quickly fell asleep. It is 11:15 Friday morning. I got up about 20 minutes ago (as a government worker, I have the day off). Mia is still asleep.

I voted about 7:20 AM, in the biggest crowd I have seen in our 8 years at that polling place.
