It just feels like victory to me.

12. The whole.. what? 6 weeks...? seem unreal to me..

I was totally wrapped up in the election turmoil...
then Hurricane Sandy hit, and we managed without power for a week.
Imagine: no MSNBC, no electric, no internet, no heat or cooking.
We had to throw out all the food in fridge/freezer..
only listen to NPR via battery radio.
I packed a bag every morning, and went to work very early,
showered/washed up, and ate out.
I charged my phone/lap top/nook at work,
and made the best of it.
Not complaining, really; so many on the east coast lost everything.

So.. when power came on.. I had to go to professional conference in Poconos..
which was really lovely.. it was work, but it was a respite.
However, tv channels were limited.
Saw the returns come in via a tv in a bar late night.
Celebrations were... well..limited.

So now, reality. I knew it my gut it would be Obama,
IF the election wasn't stolen.
And yes.. it is a victory...
but we have a long way to go.
There's still such resistance.

But light, and life.. and love prevail.
But.. are there more Pluto/Uranus/Neptune repercussions to come?
My prayer is for a normal time.. calmer times.. peace..
