60 Days of Gratitude Challenge

Day 1 of 60 Days of Gratitude.

The prompt is Name something that happened today that you are grateful for

The Right to VOTE - I learned today that my absentee ballot was deemed valid and has been counted in the US Election.

So..I am grateful for

1. the Women's Suffrage Movement

that

2. enacted the 19th Amendment granting Women the Right to Vote.

3. The Governor signing an order that granted New Yorkers the ability to vote by absentee ballot.

4. Receiving my ballot in October, before the deadline.

5. The ability to mail in the ballot in without any problems and a reliable mail service.

6. A ballot tracking site - that informed me today of when it was mailed, received and deemed valid. It was deemed received and valid on October 30.

As a result, I could vote in a safe and secure manner.

Here's the tracking site for New York.

Other days, which may or may not change without notice.

I'm voting today, at my local polling site, when I get home from work. Comfortable sneakers, mask and gloves are ready.

Grateful for something that happened today?

I woke up.

I don't mean to be flip about it. It's just that, right now, being grateful for another day is something that's not just a passing thought.
