Yeah, yeah, yeah, today Barack Hussein Obama was sworn in as the 44th resident of the white house. And it was one of the most unpresidential inaugurations I've seen and boring to boot, so I'm going to let others who know how to flourish things up with pretty words and make things sound better than they were write about that event. I am going to write about an even bigger event!!!!! We had a snow day!!!! Yep, it actually snowed here today and the school opening was delayed two hours. Since Keith only had an 8 a.m. class today, with his 11 a.m. cancelled due to the inaugeration, that meant we had a snow day off!!
The funny thing is, when I talked with my mom yesterday she told me she was going to send us snow. I called her today to let her know when she makes a promise she keeps it! We only had an inch but that was enough to shut things down around here. Well, it's all melted now, but it was fun to say we had a snow day here. Glad I got the pics when I did even though it was still dark outside when I took them.
Another thing my mother told me, during the campaigns, was if Obama got elected I better start believing in god because America will need all the prayers it can get. Well, I haven't gone that far and she laughed when I mentioned that during our phone call.
I will say one thing - there is a difference between hope and faith. Hope is empty. I hope I'll pass my test (not quite sure), I hope you get better (not quite sure), I hope I can get this done (not sure I can). And hope is what Obama offers. Gee, I hope we can do all this stuff. Faith is believing it will be done and while I hope Obama will do good I don't have a lot of faith in him. Not yet.
And on a more personal side. Is Michelle pregnant? As my husband said she's either pregnant or ate too much at all the dinners and such they attended. I'm betting it's a baby. Another wait and see event.
IT SNOWED IN SUMTER, SC!!!!!!!!!!

Snow, schmo, that's not snow. That's powdered sugar!!
And Michelle pregnant? That would be sooo awesome, a baby born in the White House! That hasn't happened since John-John!!
LOL!!yep, that's what I was telling Rhonda, the secretary of the math and science division. That to us that was nothing and we took a ride to enjoy the scenery.
And yes, we thought the same thing. That it would be cool to have another baby born at the white house, but when I see her now it doesn't look like she is. It must have just been that big yellow dress that made her look like she had a baby bump.
Oh and Rhonda went to the inaugeration and has promised me pics when she gets her camera back from her cousin. She is from Washington, DC and has family there. One of her daughters left the camera in the cousins car!! anyway, going to send her my email address and when she sends pics I'll send them to you. Just cooler to have pics from someone I know who was there :-).
