susandennis | A new day

I was just getting ready to write this entry when my rolling twitter feed erupted. What a lovely way to start the day. The results of the election of 2008 will forever be THE election for me. GOP - here in Seattle, we passed G - same sex marriage, O - Obama by a landslide and P - we legalized marijuana.

But, today is truly a very close second. I feel like we fucked up badly and now have been forgiven. I do hope we remember our lesson.

It is fun to watch all the little videos on Twitter of mini spontaneous celebrations around the country. Also weird to see so many still without masks. Dr. Fauci, your work has only just begun. [EDIT many celebrations later: Seeing lots of masks now. Whew]

I honestly and truly thought that we were doomed for another four years. I've really thought that for the last four. How wonderful to be so wrong.

Meanwhile... back at the ranch, my latest project is coming along.

I have the fronts done and the back started. My plan is to add a shawl collar in green - probably knitted because I like the look of it better than crochet ribbing.

And that will be today. I sill hope to get the bed moved if Frank comes to help but otherwise, I'll be here, wallowing in how lovely it feels to be wrong.
