Good day. Sunshine.
I know I should be posting some pictures from the opening last night. Telling you all about how it went. How so many people came that it was hard to move around, hard to see the walls. About how many people bought so many pieces: our biggest "success" yet, if one were the sort to measure success by such a thing. I could tell you how good it felt to have friends and strangers walk through the door, excited from the day, and fully in the spirit of this thing we are doing.But I really don't feel like it. Truth is, I'm never very good at doing the thing I'm supposed to be doing. I guess I have "authority issues".
I wish, too, I were capable of saying something poignant or profound about yesterday's main event. But so many others have said it so well, I'm mute. You all know how I feel about it, anyway. Because you probably feel the same way. Awed. Relieved.
Besides, I have a daughter home from school today, and frankly, all of the other stuff, the outside-of-this-house, whole-wide-world, national stage, current events stuff, doesn't seem so topical to me right this minute.
Right this minute, this is it.

Reality in all it's glory. Amen.
you've got your priorities straight. i'm not too big on doing what i'm supposed to do either. like right now - i really shouldn't be on the computer. oh well. glad last night was a success. love what you said about everyone being caught up in the spirit. special day indeed.
Of course this is it!
That's what's so amazing right now. That with all the big issues, the big problems, the big responsibilities, we have as our president someone who gets it.
Someone with two little girls, maybe home from school today, who woke up to PRESIDENT OBAMA.
This is it!
I'm so sad that I missed the opening! We really need to find a reliable babysitter!
I hope your daughter feels better soon.
I'm so glad the opening went so well. Some days, words just aren't the right thing.
so happy to hear it went well..that's enough for now, tho' eventually, i want pictures! ;-)
