Winter has come to North Carolina! Outside there is a blanket of powdery snow. I am lucky to not have to go to work today. So I'm curled up with the puppy, some Bailey's and coffee, and the inauguration with no plans to go anywhere.
It cannot be denied that today is an historic day for this country. Whatever your political believes take a minute today and savor the fact that you are alive during an incredible moment in American history.
Speaking of historic moments in time, on HBO right now is a documentary of Helen Thomas. I was incredibly lucky in college to get to here her speak. For those who don't know, she is a ballsy woman journalist who has more "female firsts" attached to her name than many women alive today. She is opinionated and unapologetic. I do not agree with all her opinions and believes, but I do have a great respect for all that she has done. She was the She was the first female White House bureau chief for United Press International . From 1960-2000, she ended every Presidential press conference with her coined phrase "Thank you, Mr. President."
