Perspective Of Yet Another Night Owl


The results are in….Let’s do our part.

It’s 2 AM here and I am not surprised, but I am still nervous about the election results.  My historically Republican state (Virginia) has voted Democratic for the first time in a long while.  It’s only the northern few counties that made that happen (population per capita).  

Regardless of how I voted, however, I am American.  I was born and raised in the U.S.A. and I stand by and behind my country first and foremost.  Even when I don’t agree with the majority.  Why, because that is the freedom of democracy.  The election and the privilege to vote is our right as citizens of this great country.  The democratic process that is in place is what we, as Americans, have come to expect and accept.  Even if we don’t always agree. And if you don’t expect and accept the democratic process by now, you had better learn to do so. And quickly.  It is what our free society has always been. Majority rules.

Even though I am not thrilled with the outcome, I am going to take John McCain’s concession speech to heart and support President Obama as best as I morally can.  I will still fight against some issues. I will support our country as it faces the challenges about to be put to us. I will support President Obama as best I can to make America what it should be. I will take seriously President Obama’s request for the entire country to work together and I will do my part to make America continue to be the best country in the world.

In the meantime, a little prayer wouldn’t hurt.

God Bless Everyone.

Those of you that have been following the MK, anti-MK, PT, anti-PT blogs “Blog Wars” in my previous posts http://nightowlmom.wordpress.com/2007/06/14/the-blog-wars/ and http://nightowlmom.wordpress.com/2007/06/22/blog-wars-its-all-about-respect/, and on the numerous blogs that seem to grow by the day, you obviously know that PT has had a mole, two or three.  Who am I kidding?? There are quite a few.  Even in her little group of Mavens, she has a mole or two.  I for one, was never a Maven. (Thank God.)  Never asked to be one either.  But I was Mole #1. (more…)

Just a little bit of fun and laughs for today.  I should mention that this post possibly qualifies as adult humor. I don’t know, somewhere right up there with those silly and mindless adult animation cartoons.  Anyway, I hope it makes you laugh, it gave me some good ones.  Read on for the Email Salary Increase Request and Response.

At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down

  Finally, the guys’ side of the story.

Blog Wars

Battle of the Blogs 

If you have been reading up on Mary Kay, I am sure you have seen the numerous blogs out there, both pro and anti-MK.  It’s even gone a step further and now there are blogs that are “anti anti”.  There are more blogs out there, but the few listed here are the ones I am going to talk about today.  Since I don’t want this blog to be a Blog war or a Pro or Anti-MK blog, this is probably the only post I will have that refers to all this. 

Background: I found these when I was looking for information about MK after joining this year.  I reviewed them, had lots of questions, got some answers, and made my decision to stay with MK as a consultant.  I have no desire to become a team leader or director.  I am not out to make millions either.  I just want to have some fun with it and if I earn some extra spending money, hey that’s a bonus I won’t throw away! That said, I think someone getting involved with MK now, should know about these blogs before getting sucked into one over the other.  I am going to try and be fair to all in this post, but I have formed my own opinions which I am sure will shine through.  I am sure someone may not like what I have to say, but oh well.  Remember, all bogs are full of opinions that some may or may not agree with.  That is the great thing about opinions; we all have a right to have them.  (more…)
