cloud nine, over the moon!
I know how much you put into this election - blood, sweat and tears and a camino.
Relax now girl. Your man is in the white house. Time to turn your thoughts inwards, to your health, your plans and your own dreams.
Buen suerte!
Pilgrim hugs,
Sil

Sil (& anyone else), It's as if I've just woken up from an 8 year long nightmare. In 3 & 1/2 hours, I will have been up 24 hours. I'm tired, exhausted, but I can't sleep! I've been working all day at my county party HQ, telling folks where they can go vote & trying to keep things organized (a famous Democrat, Will Rodgers once said "I don't belong to an organized party; I'm a Democrat"). When they sprang the announcement on us, we went nuts! I'm surprised no one called the cops! There were lots of small miracles. A couple of retired teachers walked precincts ALL DAY LONG (and it got hot this afternoon!), others spent the day driving voters to the polls, or waving signs at polling stations. A volunteer Obama phone banker in Houston found a voter in my town who needed a ride to the polls. She found the number to my HQ, called us & we were able to get this lady to her polling station. Another man didn't know where his polling station was, so I called it up on Google Maps & gave him directions over the phone! OMG OMG OMG. It's absolutely overwhelming.
