Lucky to be alive

My mind is filled with the politics of the evening but first I want to share a story with you. My dad's uncle D (he's in his early 60's) was feeding his cattle yesterday and a freak accident occurred. He was standing on the back of the hay rack and he fell through a rotted piece of wood and was suspended upside down in the frigid weather and was stuck so badly that there was no way he could pull himself up or work his foot out. He was stuck upside down suspended barely above the snow for 3 hours! He barely made it and wouldn't have except my uncle M and aunt H felt like something was wrong and went to investigate. Thankfully, they found him (nearly frozen) and rushed him to the hospital where he is doing well. The remarkable thing is the doctors told him if he hadn't been upside down, he would have frozen to death. Since he was upside down the blood was able to keep his heart and head warmer than they would have been otherwise. I feel so bad for him. What a freak accident. I am so glad M and H were there and followed their instincts.

I am almost (I said almost) tired of this election already. I have read so many articles and blogs the last few days I think I could be President. J/K Wow, did Hillary pull off an upset or what? She was supposed to lose by double digits. I think you should NEVER underestimate a Clinton. I think it would be cool to have a female president, just not her! Maybe Condi Rice or someone. She'd be great.

Some of the sites I have really enjoyed recently for conservative leaning information are:

Townhall
Politico
Realclearpolitics
hotair.com
Redstate
Drudge Report
National Review

I wish my man Mitt had done better tonight. He is getting a lot of votes, just not the most in each race. Except in awesome Wyoming. :) I think he would be a very competent leader and I am somewhat surprised he hasn't done better. He's a good debater, a hard worker, and the race is still very fluid on the Republican side. One bit of trivia. Hillary Clinton is the first woman to win a presidential primary. Why does it have to be her and not Condi? Sigh.

I am excited to get my Scarlet Lime kit this week. They put together the coolest kits.
