Just a quick post, today, and although I don't want this to turn into a political blog (in any way) I feel that it's important to post on this particular occasion.
I didn't post about the Inauguration, yesterday, because I wanted to see it all, first. I watched it pretty much from start to finish...couldn't tear myself away from the television. Barack Obama's speech was inspiring. Mrs. Obama looks every bit like a First Lady. I just read this morning that she's the new "Jackie-O" of fashion. And the little girls....well, what can I say...they're as cute as buttons.
I'm so impressed. I can't possibly imagine how anyone could come away from that event and NOT be impressed. Not just because of the historical nature of it (although that was reason enough to be impressed); no, it was because for the first time in a long time it was evident that Americans of every persuasion are pulling together and supporting a new direction for our country. The World is going to like us, again!
I wish George W. Bush and Laura Bush well. I've always liked Laura Bush...she is a real "lady" in every sense of the word. Anyway, I'd bet the farm that she's happy as heck to be back in Texas.
So...I don't know about you, but I'm feeling pretty darned good. I don't expect a miracle. It's going to take time to get the good old USA back on the right track. That's where we're headed, though. No doubt about it.

I just love reading your comments. It's part of what makes blogging so much fun, don't you think?
Unfortunately, because of a recent spat of spam, for awhile I'll be reviewing comments before publishing them.
Thanks for understanding.
