What She Said

Emmy commented yesterday that happy days are here again.  That was one of FDR's campaign songs.  He served four terms in office and that led to the 22nd Amendment that limits a president to only two terms by law.  I know I'm happy that the stress of waiting for election results is over.  What a relief!  I have valued friends on both sides of the political fence, some with whom we discuss politics and some with whom the subject is never broached.  I respect their opinions.  Regardless, we all had to be glad to see Americans dancing in the streets...it's been a long time since there have been laughing and singing crowds instead of protest marches and the need for police presence.

Michael and I went on five or six walks during the day.  It was good to be out in the sunshine instead of glued to the television.  I even went grocery shopping 'up the road a piece,' as we say.  The good mood was contagious.  Even with masks in place (and I saw few to none without one for a change), customers were smiling and chatting.

What Emmy said, "Happy days are here again."

A pretty hefty storm blew in overnight.  It's calm now, but still too dark to see if there was rain.  Changing times.

Stay safe.  Be well.
