USA: Thank you God for protecting us from Sarah Palin

sarahI’m thousands of words behind in NaNoWriMo, but I can’t concentrate because DUUUUDES! Obama won and hope fills the air even though all of this Pacific Northwest rain is knocking it down and running it down the street and into the gigantic storm drain on the curb in front of our house.

I will hold the Tuesday night moment close to my heart for a very long time.

I should be packing for my trip to daughter’s home in Appleton. I should be cleaning the bedroom: dusting furniture, vacuuming, cleaning the toilet, putting clean laundry away but I am too wrapped up in news reports about who Obama will pick for his staff and why.

Do you think that Sarah Palin really didn’t know that Africa was a continent? An impromptu prayer: Thank you God for protecting us from Sarah Palin. A lot of Your faithful think she was an answer to their prayers, and maybe she is a good and faithful follower of Yours (but if she is, why did she buy all of those expensive clothes? Doesn’t she know that scripture about the little sparrows?) I can clearly see that You knew she needed to serve you quietly in Alaska. Thank you again and again. I mean it. Make sure she stays real quiet okay? We need Your help because some of us don’t think we could take even one more day of that voice.

It won’t stop raining and two more storms are on their way. I don’t think we’ll know when one storm ends and another begins. I’m going to light a fire soon. This kind of night after a long and wet day calls for fire – and coffee. With any luck there’s Kahlua in the house.

Want to: change the sheets, dust the furniture, put the mess away. Put things in drawers, scrub the toilet. Clean the bathroom countertop and the floor. Vacuum. I often list things I want to do and then, feeling satisfied, never do them.

Do you think Joe Lieberman’s days are numbered? Didn’t he recently say he fears for the country if the Democrats got 60 seats in the Senate? Why, yes he did. He certainly did.

Important Goal: By November 15, Etsy will be up and running (and don’t you think it’s about time?). I won’t make cute little zippered bags, I promise. Loads of zippered bags on Etsy. No jewelry either. No doll clothes. Nothing involving tags. No magnets. Well there it is, at least I’ve clarified what won’t be there. No monster dolls either. Not one single zombie or anything made of felted stuff. Nothing knitted, nor anything with googly eyes.

But what will I do? Oh….stuff. Beautiful, happy, sunshine-filled stuff. A wise person told me that if I love it and it speaks to my soul, then it’s worth offering, so I’ll offer and it doesn’t sell, I’ll give it away. I’ll have Twitter polls and winner will win from the spoils.

Time to dust.
