Hey, I think I've got it, I think I remember how to post!

Hello bloggers, I am back.  At least for today, I make no promises I might otherwise break.

I wanted to stop in and share a little WHOLE LOT of gratitude this beautiful, post-election Monday.  I hope you'll join me.

1.   I am grateful for the ability of the American people to recognize a hero when they see one.
2.   I am grateful to be a citizen of what can once again become the powerful and respected nation it has been in the past.
3.   I am grateful for my writing class where I have, so far, written four pieces of which I am proud.
   
4.   I am grateful for the hours (and hours) I have set aside to follow my dream, even though much else has fallen to shit.
5.   I am grateful to my kids for making me laugh.
6.   I am grateful to my husband for putting up with me.
7.   I am grateful to the bloggers who let me get away with starting a contest and never finishing it.  SO SORRY!
   

Oh, who am I kidding trying to stay calm?  I am SHOUTING FROM THE ROOFTOPS grateful that we BARACK-ED the vote!  From all I've read and all I've heard (you must see last night's 60 MINUTES interview of  his campaign staff), if anyone can take us to the promised land from this shit heap we're currently mired in, it's this man.  GO OBAMA!
