thank you DUers for inspiring me!

to go to the local anti-war protest. I used to go to protests a lot prior to parenthood and too much work to do. The protest was great despite the rain. I felt so energized by it. And I also got my DU sticker today.

7. Good for you!

I was asked to go to the NYC protest this weekend, but my husband's working and child care issues made it impossible. Wish I could have been there!

9. thanks

:hi:

I haven't gone much since my son was born since I felt he should be able to decide if he wants to go.. he probably could now, but it was too wet so he and dad stayed home while I got soaked.
