I'm still in disbelief, like I don't want to wake up from a really good dream. It's like when you're daydreaming about those cute boots or that swexy dude or that hot chick (for you men out there) - you're fighting yourself not to be woke. It seems like it has been one of the biggest events in my life. Change indeed. Hope personified. High tolerance in minorities alike, almost there. MR. BARACK OBAMA IS AMERICA'S NEW PRESIDENT. MY VERY OWN PRESIDENT. I have never been SO INSPIRED, MOTIVATED, & COMMITTED to doing more in several aspects of my life.

I just finished a great couple of books within a couple of weeks. As I have mentioned in an earlier post, I've been reading The Women's Murder Club series by James Patterson. I'd like to complete the series before the month is over - I have 3 more to go! The ones I've finished reading are 1st to Die, 2nd Chance, 3rd Degree & 4th of July. Just a recap, it's about four women who work as First Woman Lieutenant of SFPD, Chief M.E., columnist at a newspaper, and lawyer in California. These four women have created and founded The Women's Murder Club where they have formed close-knit relationships with each other and solved grisly murders. I've read the noted four in the past couple of months. Now, I've got to wrap up the other three in the next 3 weeks.


My nephew, Devin, is the cutest, most adorable yet challenging little man I know. He's quick to say yes or no without fully knowing its meaning yet but he is also quick-witted. His current fascination with the show Mickey Mouse has provided him with some new dance moves. He knows one word, DOG, and then dances enthusiastically to it. Aaahh...I LOVE MY LITTLE GUY. Speaking of little guy, Jaiden Amari Branch was born November 2, 2008 weighing 8 lbs! Chanel's one proud mama!

Quite another week ahead of me. Work, class, and exam next week; 1 of 8. There's really no room for failure and I'm quite certain I'll do great. What are some things you have lined up? Anything exciting happen this weekend? Share your thoughts with me!
