Election News

Yesterday was the big election. I did not stay up to watch the results. In fact I have been fasting from all news programs for about three week. Just could not take the ups and downs of the circus. Just like football games. I do not watch them when they get close. (I did carry on a thread or two on Facebook.)

Last night I texted Mary and asked her to leave me a text telling me who won the election so that I could check when I got up this morning. So I checked my texts this morning around 6 a.m. and there was the good news! Obama the clear winner. Thank you Lord. :)

Some people are taking the results pretty hard. I know how they feel. I felt that way exactly (only with good reason, of course) when Bush won his second term. I could hardly believe it.

Here's hoping for something more than gridlock!
