"IT'S A NEW DAY!!!"






I have had Will.I.Am's song running through my head all day today. What a change in the air! What a change in America! I feel a sense of empowerment because of the enthusiasm of Americans all around. It's a refreshing change.



After seeing Oprah's show and the pledges people were making, I decided to pledge to enjoy life more each day and look for the simple pleasures...I pledge to do what I can to make this world a better place!! This pledge consist of not complaining about unnecessary things and dedicating my time to helping find a cure for childhood cancer as well as finding a meaningful career that I find fulfillment in.




Aside from all the happenings of today's Inauguration, it "snowed" in Charlotte. As usual, the panic set in and businesses closed early. Yet, I had the enjoyment of watching my lil guy Barkley enjoy snow for the first time. A little uneasy at first as to why the ground looked white, but then he decided ...why not taste it...as he does everything unknown. And so he did and he continued to lick the edge of the patio while eating up the snow.


This is also the start of my Day 1 of my Project 365...which is listed at http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/ (basically a project where photos are taken daily and memories are captured.

Have a great day!!!
