Wind
When I was a child, we lived for a time in Kansas. I have had a fear of high winds since that time. Certainly not comparing the winds we are experiencing here to tornado winds, I am more than a little freaked out this morning. It is dark outside and it is very windy. The house is moving with the wind and I don't like that.

And it begins...
This is on the front page of the Huffington Post this morning
Can you feel it? A new beginning for our country. I feel such a sense of patriotism and energy and excitement. I know the tasks ahead are daunting but the possibilities and dreams for the future color my world for the moment. And I am thankful!!

Anyone going to the Inaugural?
I would love to go but I think it is going to be totally crazy in DC and I will see much more by watching on TV. I am taking off on the 20th to spend the ENTIRE day in front of the television. My parent's will arrive about 10am for breakfast and mimosas. This will certainly be a party day for us!
(I was seriously thinking about putting bunting up on the front porch. Too much?)

Thanksgiving - January 1, 2009
I greet this very cold morning with thanksgivings. I am thankful for shelter, warm clothing and food in my kitchen. I am thankful for employment, friends and a family that supports and loves me. I am thankful that I discovered a creative outlet that both entertains me and feeds my soul.
I hope you have much to be thankful for as we begin this New Year.

"Just plain wrong"
Sounds like Bill Clinton, doesn't it? Anyway, I have a bug in my ear about something right now so I am going to share. (Such a treat!)
This crouton, the governor of Illinois (Rod Blagojevich), decided to appoint a new Senator to fill Obama's seat regardless of the fact that Blagojevic has been arrested for political corruption for trying to "sell" that same Senate seat. He named a man who appears to be decent, hard working and honest. Sadly, Roland Burris will most likely not become a Senator regardless of his attributes because of Blagojevich. Everything the governor touches at this point turns to poison. It wasn't bad enough that he tried to "feather his nest" with money and perks in his attempt to sell the Senate seat. A man who may have been a very good Senator will not have the opportunity to serve because he is tainted with the stink of association.
It's wrong, people. It's just plain wrong.

WHAT?
What is up with this? Snow all over the place in Seattle and we can't get a decent snowfall here in Berks County, PA? Oh, we are going to get a measly 2 to 4 inches today and that's it until who knows when. They changed the forecast from wintery mix on Wednesday to all rain as the temps climb into the low 40s. I am SO disappointed.
When I lived in Seattle we had about 2 decent snowfalls in a 3 year period. My mother would call me from Pennsylvania and say "It's snowing here!" just to annoy me.
Truth be told, I am just looking for a reason to have a couple of days off from work without it cutting into my vacation time. I hope it snows like crazy in January!!
