I live in Washington, DC so I thought about how “The First 100 Days” is always a big date for every new President. It basically marks the end of the transition and the start of the body of the presidency. The Inaugural Balls are over, the Cabinet is in place, you’ve offered up a piece or two of new legislation, made a few mistakes, had a few successes…you know what I mean. It’s the point in which it, whatever “it” is, isn’t new anymore. Well, my first 100 days are over so I thought I would give you some statistics to mull over and see how my personal presidency is going.

Note the strain on the middle set of “used” holes…some evidence of time spent on the bigger setting, and now the indents created on the small setting now necessary to hold my pants up at an appropriate height. The phone is for scale and the quilt was made by my Mom.
Thank you all for reading. My brother, when I asked him for suggestions about the blog, reminded me that this is my diary and I’m just letting people read it so as long as I’m happy with it that’s all that matters. Well, I am and I hope you are enjoying it too. I’ve never kept a diary before although I tried once or twice as a kid. The running itself has been pretty great but writing about it has it’s mental health benefits as well.
Only 265 more days to go!
