Victory!!

YES!!! America has spoken and made the correct decision (I hope) on electing Barack Obama as President :) Was it just me or did everybody feel what I felt? I felt such a sense of pride and hope for America. I felt proud that we as a people looked past skin color, for once, and elected a person on their ideals. On that historic Tuesday night, I didn't stay up all night to get the results. I went to bed at my normal 8:30 (Hey! I'm a Mom now!) and I woke up at midnight to pump (TMI, get over it). So, when Harrison, or Harrison's kids ask me, "Where were you when Obama gave his acceptance speech??"...I'll have to make something else up other than, I was on the couch, in my nightgown, pumping for milk. Nice huh?
Okay, enough politics.

Nothing really else going on, just working as normal, getting ready for the Holidays. Can you believe they have Xmas crap up already??!? I can't believe it!! It seems it comes earlier and earlier every year. Insane.

Man, this is a boring post. My bad. Here's a picture of Gladys to distract you from this crappy blog.

First blog :)

I guess I should start off with information about me. My name is Mauria and I'm from Indianapolis Indiana. I have a wonderful husband named Kenney, who is my complete opposite. He loves running, and biking, and tree hugging :) Me, I enjoy not running or biking. :) Really, I enjoy anything to do with my family, and that includes my 3 dogs. I love staying in and renting movies on cold days, and walking in a park on a warm one. I'm the kind of girl that likes Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain :)

I love my job, it's one of my favorite things to do. If I had a choice to stay home all day or go to work, I'd go to work. I get to be around dogs the whole day, AND bring my son to work with me. I have to say that I'm really blessed in my life. After 2 years of trying to get pregnant, we were blessed with Harrison on July 25, 2008, he's the light in our lives. He's such a happy boy! He's everything to me, before he was born, I never thought I was capable of loving anything more than Kenney and my dogs, now I know a different kind of love, it's an amazing feeling.

I guess that's it about me for now. :)

My first blog...hmm..what to write about. Well, it's Election Day tomorrow, and for those of you who know me, I'm a HUGE democrat. I'm so excited to be alive to see this monumental election. Whether Barack Obama wins or not, I'm just happy that I've gotten to witness history in the making. What an exciting time!! There are no holds barred now, every line has been crossed, we've had a woman running for the primary, and african american win the primary, and hopefully win the election tomorrow. I just know when I get older, Harrison will be asking me what it was like to be a part of something so huge. I can't wait for that. Harrison will be proudly wearing his "Babies for Obama" T-shirt tomorrow!
