41/365



This was a day that will be in the history books. Barack Obama was sworn in today at noon as the 44th President. Our country faces a long, uphill battle to get back to where we were just 10 years ago, and hopefully, he will help us all get there. I watched him speak on tv at work and my coworkers were clapping and cheering as though they were all there in Washington. Everyone was excited and hopeful and looking forward the changes he promised during his campaign. I know that there are many people who can't get past the race issue (which is disgusting, it's 2009 not 1845!) but I'm glad. Maybe he will have a different perspective and change this country for the better. I'm excited to see what the next few months bring...
