Inauguration Weekend!!!

I can't remember a time in my life when there was so much excitement in the air that you could actually feel it. That time is now. I'm working the afternoon shift today instead of my usual Saturday morning routine. Normally I would be taking advantage of the opportunity to sleep in, but not today. I got up bright and early to catch the Obama Express on CNN. Yes, my CNN addiction is still going strong, but perhaps not past Tuesday??? We'll see, pray for me. LOL Anyway, there is so much going on this inauguration weekend and thanks to many of the TV channels we can still experience the moment without being there. CNN will have great coverage all weekend long, but even pay cable channels like HBO are getting in on the Obamarama. You can check out one of the main balls for free tomorrow evening on HBO, if you have cable service. Check your local listing. I am dvr'ing CNN while at work and at a meeting tonight. My DVR will be working overtime the next few days. Thank you Jesus for technology!

Seriously, whether you are democrat, republican or other, you have to be proud of this moment in history. Put aside your ideological differences and share in this time of unity. Watch what you can of the inauguration celebrations and perhaps your spirit will be boosted with a jolt of hope.

Please remember to pray for the safety of the Obama andBiden families. As far as this country has come, there are still plenty of hateful crack pots out there that would love to do harm.

Peace and blessings to all,
