My day has been planned around this wonderful and historic event – Barack Obama’s inauguration on January 20, 2009! When I saw this picture (cover of ms. magazine) I just had to post it! In Denmark feminism is almost a curse word, for some. While in Sweden most politicians (male as well as female) call them selves feminists! I know that this picture is photoshoped, but Obama is a self-proclaimed feminist. My point is, that if one of the world’s most important men is openly a feminist – that help change the minds of people the world over. In Denmark hopefully!

Inaugurations days do not have to be less crafty days than usual – check out Crafsters collections of political themed stuf. And when you are there, please note Crafsters new and less cluttered design. I chose to knit on my Honeycomb Socks that have been long over due. I must admit that I couldn’t help tearing up.

I am dealing with a lot these days, and my blogging energy isn’t what I want it to be. I am trying to get into a different university to take my masters, and it is completely uphill! So right now I desperately need a job and I am not taking any classes (because I get my bachelor degree in Art history this January) . All this uncertainty is stressing the hell out of me :P

Happy inauguration day to all.
