A Small Effort.....

I watched most of the DNC last week and frankly was pumped up by the speakers and the enthusiasm in the audience. So....that's over and now we'll just have to wait until November to see the results.

Last Thursday I followed Michelle Obama's command to "do something" and drove over to the Milwaukee County Democratic Office hoping to get a bumper sticker and a button to wear. They didn't have any road signs yet (which we can't post at our apartment building anyway) or buttons with the Harris/Walz ticket. I did get a Kamala button and the name of the website where I ordered postcards to mail. The smallest order was for 500 so I will be handing bunches out to friends and neighbors eager to help.

Then I saw an idea on Facebook so I am also preparing to share these whenever I am out and use a public bathroom at a store or restaurant or wherever:

I got my pad of post-it notes and started writing. They will "live" in my purse until needed. I plan to stick one at eye-level inside the bathroom stall so the next person in the "space" will sit and see! No name so no one can get annoyed with me, and I expect most will be taken down quickly and go into the trash. On the other hand my little note may bring a smile and a reminder to someone else of just how important it is to DO something and then VOTE!

Feeling encouraged......
