I've accomplished nothing today and it is noon. I did take the children to school, Michael is working the 6 to 3pm. shift today. I will pick up the boys and Mike will take over when I get the boys home.

The plumber did come and he has fixed the leak. Hopefully for good. There was a problem with the flow of the expelled water from the washing machine and the dishwasher that would overflow around the drain from the air conditioner unit. Oh well. You know how much I have said the washer is going and that the dishwasher is going. So that is why there was water on thef loor in the basement almost all of the time.

I have commented on Ronnie Wiggins' blog about the election and left a m,essage on Lyndsey's phone. I have watched the three postings on Sam's wholesale blog showing video footage of Andy's proposal to Jessica. You must see that. I wish you could also read my response on Ronnie Wiggins blog.

After I do some cleaning, I may post some more, but now I hear the sound of a mess somewhere calling me by name. love you. jk

Let me say this. I thought John Mc Cain's concession speech was wonderful. I was very proud to be an American last night. For the world to see cheering people in the streets all over America and no shooting or violence and then to see John MCain give such a wonderful concession speech in which he called Brack "his" president and promised to do whatever he could to support Barack as Barack leads our nation. What a wonderful thing for the world to see Democracy in action. Joy in our streets. Basrack calls himself a Christian and, while that fact can be questioned with many of the issues he espouses, he still calls himself a Christian. My prayer is that Obama call on the name of the Lord for guidance as he leads this nation. God is faithful to those who are called by his name. We must pray for Obama. I believe God can use Obama to bless this nation if Obama will listen to God. What else can we do? jk

Jan, I appreciate your reading my posts and I enjoy reading yours. You are so right about McCain's concession speech. It was one of the best presentations I've ever heard him give and it elevated discourse and politics beyond the level we are accustomed to seeing. I, too, was proud to be an American. While my concerns are no less than yesterday, my hope burns brighter than I expected. Is that what the AUDACITY OF HOPE is all about? Actually I think its because of what God is all about, don't you. I will pray for Barak Obama and congress. Plus I hope I redouble my efforts to leave this country a better place than I found it, but I'm not sure I measure up to those who preceded me. Still I will do my best with the gifts I have and that's all God or man expects.
