Really missing mom. Wearing her wedding rings today. She would've been so happy and making new friends all over the Capitol.

So happy to have so many family here today for swearing in. Pictures later,but 6 of 7 children,5of 6 grandchildren,my siblings, 23 in all!

I admire Speaker Boehner's courage in allowing this bill a vote even with the majority of House Rs voting no.Solid bipartisan compromise.

Thanks Matt.Happy New Year!“: Sen@clairecmc is right. This is a silly rule that cannot possibly be enforced.

Final vote89-8.Wasn't pretty & I'm embarrassed it took so long but glad I'm part of compromise to protect vast majority from tax increase.

Good news. In deal we will STOP any pay increase for Congress. Thank goodness. Good reason to vote for it.

Seriously? This is silly. I walked out of caucus to get my phone which I left in my car. Get a grip press.

This will not go down as one of my favorite New Years's Eves. Memorable yes.

Voted till early evening in Senate, back to floor on Sunday. Still hoping for a compromise. Tonight? Up late watching Pressey. Wow.

Well that was fun. Mizzou gets to brag again! Terrific game and fun to visit with the great Tony LaRussa.

Today my thoughts switch from cliff to cookies, from Senate to shopping, from fiscal fights to family. A temporary relief.

Conservatives preach no federal govt and local control of schools until the NRA wants the federal government to mandate guns in schools?

We can avoid cliff with a balanced approach that will get Ds and Rs but there are a bunch of extreme Rs that are making it really hard.

Congrats to my pal,history making Barb Mikulski.Longest serving woman & 1st woman chair of Appropriations Committee in the US Senate.

If you didn't see the President's remarks tonight at memorial in Newtown please pull it up and watch.Inspiring,moving.

Marked chairs for all women Senators, ready for ABC interview.Could be a train wreck,lots of voices.
