This historic day . . .


So many more have said far better things than I could. I shared the experience of the inauguration with 100 other people gathered together at a local church that was being used by the local Democratic Party and MoveOn.org. It was amazing to see history happen. I cried . . . again.

I spent my day talking to fabulous people and serving food to people who were not only hungry for CHANGE, but hungry for pizza!

A monumental day!

I have a Harriet Tubman doll. I held her in my hands today and asked her if she ever imagined today. I don't know for sure, but I swear she winked at me!

I stayed a puddle most of the day. And stood during the swearing in along with J. I wish J could understand how big a day it was. Maybe she will just in the fact that it's the first time she's watched TV in over 2 years.

Jo, I love it! Too cute.

Lisa, You watched tv?!?! Is the world coming to an end? *wink*

I know this has nothing to do with your post but....the yarn you are using for your afghan is on sale at Micheals for $1! :)

Jenkies Janie! Thanks a TON! I'm out and I was just bemoaning the fact that I have to go buy more.

Yay! You rock.

Yep Sheri. The world might just stop on it's axis. She promptly had a meltdown afterwards but it was worth it. Someday she will remember this and be able to tell her children that she remembered the day.
