For Those Who Voted This Morning – How’d It Go?

lines

For those who voted, how long did you wait? Where did you vote? What time did you get there? Any special treats at your polling station? Ed. Note: My polling station had water and candy. I waited about 30 minutes all told. My polling station is Murch – which got moved to the church across the street.

Chelsey Christensen reports around 8:45am:

“The line OUTSIDE…and now INSIDE at my polling place in Columbia Heights.”

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
