Old School Friday — Never Would of Made It

Posted by Kim S. on November 7, 2008

This week’s theme T.G.I.O (Thank God It’s Over) in honor of this week’s historic election of President Barack Obama! My pick is Marvin Sapp’s “Never Would Have Made It”. Though its not technically old school, I thought it was appropriate. We did it yall! We did it!

I Voted!

Posted by Kim S. on November 4, 2008

I snapped a couple of pictures while waiting in line to vote this morning. I waited about 2 hours and had no problems. On my way to work I thought about my grandmother who passed away in September and didn’t live to see this day. I would have loved to hear what she thought about it all.

I can’t tell you how overwhelmed I am about being able to vote for a Black man for President. I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited to vote since I became eligible waaaay back in 1987. Tonite my husband and I will be sitting nervously in front of the TV watching the news and waiting for the returns. It may be a long night.

YES WE CAN!!!
