Obama's birthday August 4th!

Please don't forget to honor our President on his birthday, August 4th, by wearing something, anything "Obama"
I went to African World Festival this weekend and the first stop I made was an "Obama booth" where I met a wonderful woman named "Dream" Yes I said "Dream". Love that name, anyway we were talking and I mentioned the "Obama" collage and my need for buttons. She said that one of my emails had come her way blah, blah, blah (small world) and she ended up giving me a bag of campaign buttons. 85 buttons! Thank you Dream. I totally love that!!!!! She also told me about this fantastic website http://www.democraticstuff.com/ they have all kinds of wonderful "Obama" stuff and I am placing my order!!!!! And by the way I am happy to have African World Festival back. I was however a little disappointed in the Market Place. I was hoping to browse upon some fantastic African treasure to add to my African Art Collection. I bought a small Soapstone bowl for $5 bucks, a fantastic Tye dye wrap skirt for $20 and a large container of shea butter for $5 bucks as well. I love the shea butter, use it for everything.

Is it hot enough for you????? Muggy too! My "hot flashes" have taken on a life of their own. They've isolated themselves to the upper body including my scalp and Lord are they ever going to stop! This menopause ain't no joke. I was trying to find something to wear to the festival--it's official "I'm forty-something". I have to think back to the Wanda Sykes DVD "I'm A Be Me" and her "Esta Roll" even with leading the Ab Class and all the Cardio, I've got an "Esta Roll" too. Just think what it would be like if I did nothing at all-good Lord that would not be good. I have not had any kind of Soda, diet or otherwise since reading that article and have been brewing my own Ice Tea mixing it with mixed berries and am only buying single servings of ice cream, trying my best to keep the "Esta Roll" at bay, LOL!

I start another long work stretch tomorrow, but trust me, I am making time to workout and trying to hit the weights as well. Remember to be kind. you never know who the other person might be and they might be in need of a kindness. At least smile. DON'T FORGET TO WEAR SOMETHING "OBAMA" AUGUST 4TH. AND FEEL FREE TO LET A CALL GO TO VOICEMAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!
