Welcome. Or maybe you've been here before. I'm from MS originally so I thought I'd say hi to a neighbor. So, hey!

Do you realize I have a better chance of winning the lottery than seeing either Michelle or Barack Obama in person? Thank God I believe in the afterlife or I'd be one sad old lady.

But no matter how pea-green jealous I can be, I'm very happy for luckier folks. The smiles on those children's faces are priceless.

Not sure how much I was influenced directly by Let's Move, but I know it's partly because I feel better and THAT's largely due to an excellent Democratic administration, regardless of how the rethugs try to wreck it.
