Welcome 44: Barrack Hussein Obama

It is official, we have a new president. Barrack Hussein Obama is now the 44th President of the United States of America. I was fortunate enough to watch it with my family this morning. In fact we are watching it again now!! In addition to my mom, brother, sister in law and niece, my uncle Clarence (the Right Reverend Clarence Heard), Aunt Belinda, and cousins, Siobhan and Hadassah are here. I haven't seen these cousins in so many years. Hadassah is now 14 and FULL of attitude. Siobhan is a beautiful 23-year old young woman who also likes to knit and crochet!!

I did finish Ava's dress and it is just beautiful! I am currently working on a hooded scarf, because, while I have enjoyed the 70-degree temperatures, I know that when I get back to MN it will still be quite chilly.

There have been times that I thought
I couldn’t last for long
But now I think I’m able to carry on

It’s been a long time, but I know
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

i don't think chilly will quite cover it. here in illinois, we will have a two day warm up before it plunges again into the teens...that's not chilly - that's cold!
