New president elect- Obama. I must say history has been made and I am proud of the fact that it happened in my lifetime. "I have a dream.." Jesse Jackson was crying as the election was called. Students last night celebrated on Green street and you could hear it all the way at our house, inside our house, lol. I was really impressed last night with McCain's speech, it was eloquent and heart touching.

On a more somber note- Grandma Zelma died yesterday morning. We will miss her but know she is with her other family that has also passed. I spoke with Grandma Helen last night as they were on the way back from Arkansas, back to Indiana to get ready to head to North Dakota.

On a selfish note, my Victoria Secret order shipped, whoot. I got a deal using three discount codes. 2 sweaters, two bras and a pair of underwear for 30 bucks shipped, whoot whoot.

We've started patching the vents, we have two done now. I bought new vent covers for the two, medium oak finish covers, they'll blend well with the refinished floors. I decided to go with new covers instead of using paca cast iron ones b/c they are in high traffic areas (so the smaller the better) & they were cheaper, cast iron $20 to $30 a pop, the new ones I got on clearance for $1.70 a piece.

I made a new enchilada recipe last night with some leftover roasted chicken I had. Ohhh it was gooood, I got the recipe off of oprah (it's on her website.) The other day at Meijer I bought some deli meat, they have excellent reduced fat salami, and I tried the hickory smoked turkey premium meijer brand, it is realllly realllly good. Makenna made out like a bandit while at Meijer, she got some free turkey from the deli lady and a free cookie from the bakery lady.
