Inauguration of Obama
While sorting papers for MCHS 2009 Notebooks I watched the ceremonies and activities of the Inauguration of Barak Obama. ½ black – first of his race to be elected president of the U.S.
Lots of hope and support shown buy the crowds that filled the Mall in front of the Capitol.
Called Gators towing to jump start Prius – Pd $25 – To McDaniel Toyota where Walt Steward had ordered a new 12 volt battery but since it won’t be in until tomorrow so they loaned me a Toyota Corolla – spoke briefly to Jim Waddell, mgr. And David’s school mate at Caledonia. He asked about David & Kathi.
To Marion Bank & deposited Birch check for 4 Hemmerly Genealogies that I have ready to mail.
To Meijer groceries $30 – Used the self-serve check out with no problem but didn’t realize I left my purse on the belt until I got to HH – Lugged in the box of notebooks. Galed called Mweijer for me & they had my purse at customer service – I was too upset with all this (and DOug Ebert & Valenda wouldn’t be there for orientation) so told gale I would be excused – Picked up purse on way home after I haiold men walking by to show me how to get Corolla started.
