I saw the optometrist yesterday. He is very thorough. Most eye exams are an hour or less. He spent about two hours with me -- and I didn't even have many questions! I'm glad to have found him. The sunglasses he made for me last year are wonderful!

I think it is wonderful you found a great optometrist.

Yay, Tina Kotek will be the new governor of Oregon.  I hope she does an excellent job.

The last time I was able to check, the Arizona governor's race was still too close to call, but the Democrat was ahead. :)

Filed under "WTF": 

Pennsylvania state lawmaker won big in the midterm elections despite being dead

AND he was 85 years at the time of his death! :o

DeLuca took in more than 85% of the vote in Pennsylvania's 32nd Legislative District. By the time DeLuca died, it had been too late for officials to change the election ballots, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

He was a Democrat, so on the positive side, the voters would've rather had a dead Democrat than a live republican. :))

Thank you, everyone, for tolerating my frenzied election updates last night.
I realize that it’s not everyone’s cup of tea!

DR Jane, Larry Hogan was a pretty decent governor for a Republican.
He and Trump were on very poor terms.
I really like our newly elected governor, Wes Moore.
Do you know how Craig feels about it?

I didn’t get the chance to meet Wes Moore, unfortunately.
He is highly intelligent and very charismatic from what I’ve heard and observed.

I never thought to ask him.  I expect he likes him and will confirm that.

I am reading about Moore now and noticed he was born not far from where Craig lives.  Where does Moore currently live?

Silver Spring though he works in Prince George's County.  At one time he considered moving to the Baltimore area.

Moore and his wife live in Guilford, a beautiful and very expensive neighborhood not too far from Johns Hopkins. They are extremely wealthy.

My aunt lived in a suburb of Baltimore, and for many years we all stayed with her to celebrate Thanksgiving. She was very good at thinking up adventures that would engage us kids.

Also, she lived very near a bookstore. That was enough for me.

Jane, I lived and worked in Silver Spring for several years when I attended the Univ. of Maryland. I love that neighborhood.

Interesting, I read enough to figure out he has money, but nothing about his wife ;D
