New Year - New Adventures


 Hello, blog readers!  I haven't posted in forever!  Our old laptop became more of a burden than a tool.  This year, my wonderful family gifted me a Chromebook for Christmas.  Hurray!

I'm going to address the obvious "big story" of the week: the inauguration of Donald Trump as our president.  Unless you live under a rock, you probably know more about this than I do.  I watched the major event of the oaths.  I heard President Trump's acceptance speech.  I viewed the footage of the Bidens leaving in the helicopter in a peaceful transfer of power.

To me, one of the bright spots was Carrie Underwood's impromptu Acapella version of "God Bless America".  (Sound systems seem to be the bane of everyone's existence!)  As the crowd joined in singing, I had such a feeling of patriotic pride.  Yes, please!  God bless America!

Do I have opinions about our new president and vice president?  For sure.  But my approach to each new presidency is this: pray, wait and see, and pray some more.

We don't need more division in our country.  Let's pray for God to bless the USA and give our new leadership His wisdom.
