For Thanksgiving...

It seems like since election day there is much sadness and worry. Every time I go on the Internet there is a new punch in the gut.
I just finished making pumpkin pies with my grandsons and I realized what I need to do by tomorrow...I need to remember that for today and tomorrow, Obama is still the president. This small thought makes me feel much better. We can only live today. Over the next months and years we are probably going to see some very crazy stuff, some of it may be horrible. But for this week, I am glad that Obama is still the President.
I am thankful for the class and intelligence he and his beautiful family have brought to our country in this time.
Happy Turkey Day to everyone at DU! We have a long hard road ahead, so lets stop and count our blessings and find things to be happy about! (and eat lots of good food, we will need the energy!)
Peace~
