Ok, a few bits of good news. Hoorah, Barrack Obama has made history as the first ever African American president of our country! Also on his inauguration day it snowed here in St. Stephen South Carolina! Surely a sign of good things.

Another bit of news, I've FINALLY gone back to work! I've been out on maternity leave for my youngest daughter Sophia Wren. She is now ten weeks old, way past time to go back to work. There are some women out there who are more than happy to stay at home and tend to their children and clean house and cook meals, however I am not among that population of women. I personally believe that housework is dangerous to one's health (if I ever win the lottery I will donate a significant amount of money to whichever organization can prove that fact) and I avoid it if at all possible. Now for a wee bit of bad news, I have gone back to work, however I do not make enough to pay a daycare to watch the girls and my mother watches them three days a week (what I've started out at to get used to working and tending to children), she said that she will not watch them more than three days out of the week because she doesn't want me to go back to work full time. (ug) I am dying to go back to work full time. I actually enjoy conversations that don't begin with Mommie. I love my children, I just don't want to stay home with them all the time. Is that wrong?

Oh, I've managed to get a table at the Chili Cook off in Whitesville this Saturday, as a crafter. Some of my paintings will be on display there, hopefully I'll see some interest in them. I'll post about that after the weekend.
