Ow, ow, ow.
I hurt in places I didn’t know I had.
Yesterday was the day of service project that I’ve been working on for several months. I overslept and didn’t get up until 5:30 and from then it was non-stop on my feet until 9 pm. That’s tough duty for somebody who’s been sitting on her [...]

We spent last evening and today watching the coverage of Ted Kennedy’s funeral. There has been a Kennedy at the center of American politics all my life. It’s hard to imagine how different Washington will be now. I have to wonder how his political acumen would have impacted the health care debate had he been [...]
“Are these for me?”
Here you go folks; the first time ever that I’ve completed a sock in one day. I cast on for the second sock of the pair at 6 am yesterday while I was serving as an election judge for our municipal offices and school board. I reached the top about mid-afternoon in [...]

It turned into a minor victory party with munchies, wine, and beer. I’m proud of our [...]
It has taken me 36 hours to come to grips with winning the election. Isn’t this something? I can’t get over how excited people are to see Barack Obama elected. When have you ever seen thousands of people dancing in the streets to celebrate the election of a politician? People feel like they have a [...]
“…And to all those who have wondered if America’s beacon still burns as bright: tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals — democracy, liberty, opportunity and unyielding hope.”

This will give you chills.
I actually made it home last night by 8:30 after 12 hours. As a dry run for Election Day yesterday went incredibly well. We had an average number of glitches: a last minute change in the precincts we’re covering, no Internet connection, wrong directions to one neighborhood and then a mid-afternoon [...]
