Today
I had a rather accomplished day. Although I didn't sleep well last night, I managed to get up in time to clean out a cabinet that REALLY needed it, vacuum, fold up some laundry, and still get in a 5 hour-shift at work. Perhaps these tasks are not as much as some do in their day, but considering my level of exhaustion, I'm rather happy with the progress made.
Hours at work have lessened a bit, which is understandable as we're into January and retail is not exactly flourishing at the moment. I'm just happy I'm still employed; I've been hearing of too many layoffs and places closing and I'm grateful for any income.
I'm ready for the cold to depart. Really.
I saw the Inauguration yesterday, and couldn't help but admire Mr. Obama's speaking skills. It's nice having a leader that can actually speak without making up words or using the wrong word at places; though to be fair I would hate to have to try and give a speech to a nation with the media ready to pounce on any misstep. (But dear God and Goddess, there were SO many such missteps with our last leader.) Fine words are a great thing; I'm curious to see whether fine actions follow. Still, I have hope.
Be well.
