Just a quick PSA to remind you that midterm elections are today in America, so if you’re in the USA, go exercise your right to vote and cast a ballot!
If you’re lucky like me, your polling station will be nearly empty and you’ll be able to use the extra time you allowed to treat yourself to a coffee and some alone time before the rest of your day gets rolling.
I don’t care why you vote (they give you a sticker! your friends will think you’re cool!) and I certainly don’t care who or what you vote for. Just GO VOTE!
Whenever I took her to vote, my Gran used to proudly shout, to anyone who would hear, “I’ve voted in every election I was able to vote in throughout my whole life”. We forget that some groups of people didn’t have the right to vote not so very long ago.

That is SUCH a good point Helen! Even 100 years ago women in this country couldn’t vote. I just cannot believe that.
