At the early voting place they check ID. At my regular voting place they don't bother. The early voting location is easier to find & has better parking & lighting. It's right next to the courthouse so it's also has good security. I'm glad none of them ever try to compare my signature from when I first registered to vote. My signature has changed. Also, the page moved when I was trying to sign in so that didn't help.
Rusty, I agree. It can be hard for some people to get ID-- particularly people who just lost their homes to the flooding/hurricane. IIRC, it costs more than $25 for ID here & it takes a long time. Took one friend 6 months to get his ID. He had a hard time even getting the paperwork through bc they wanted SS card or birth certificate & his mom refused to give them to him (and she lived out-of-state). He couldn't get new SS card without the birth certificate & he couldn't get the birth certificate without ID. It was a catch 22.
I know some think that $25 isn't a lot but living in an area where the median household income is below $25k & sales tax is 10.45% & there are all sorts of fees for everything. There is no public transportation and hardly any sidewalks. So people have to rely on having their own cars or have to get lifts. If they get a flat tire, need an oil change, or need any maintenance it eats their budget.
Highup, that looks like a pita for a job. I'd be mad at whoever did the radiant heating.
Interesting carpet pattern.
Odd question: My MSI Herritage Antique Mahogany vinyl planks came with their own backers, but the promo images & info say it can be put over MSI Abatec 3.9 ft. x 25.7 ft. x 1mm Premium Underlayment for Rigid Click Luxury Vinyl Flooring (100 sq. ft.)-VTURIGID - The Home Depot which will keep it from sliding & provide more sound proofing. I don't really care about sound so much, but it might keep the floor a little warmer in winter. I would only need one roll of the stuff. Do you think it would be worth it?
I'm sitting here relaxing in the air conditioning with my cats. They want attention. LOL. Legs are aching. I really should start doing some stretches for my back & legs. I'm planning to make shepherd's pie tonight. Store was out of a lot of stuff & I will probably have to go to a different store to get more food. I think we may be able to get rid of our old fridge now that my brother has his own small fridge in his room. It can hold his milk & diabetes medicine. He's been better about not stealing my milk. The reason we got a 2nd fridge set up was bc he kept eating everyone else's food so we put stuff in a different fridge & told him he wasn't allowed to eat anything from that one. It didn't work with the food but it worked with the milk for the most part.
Mmm.. Donuts.. I think we still have some in the living room (safe from raccoons there).

The stairs enter at the far end of the angle with an oak top step.
