I'm Tardy in my Posts!



I guess not much to report. Tons of family in town, my sister, my niece and then my parents (see their photo). Work is good, I'm doing sales for a women's resource guide called Women With Know How.

But the big news is that the quest for my husband continues. We're just about half way into 2008 and I've given myself until the New Year of 2009 so I guess I'd better turn up the heat. I went to an interview for a singles club but it was SOOOO expensive! I'm sure I'm creative enough and innovative enough to figure out a way to meet a man. I need some virtual affirmations out there, so please put out the good thoughts!

I'm going to stop advertising Prepaid and whatever else I've got going on here and just direct people to MySpace. And you know me...I've got some other ideas I'm playing with! All virtual, baby. All virtual. It's the only way to go what with the cost of gas almost $4.00 a gallon and the price of having a brick and mortar store front.

To all my readers (Mom, Emily, Donald and Michael Owens!), please spread the message of love and peace in your every day conduct. I will try and do the same.

A Real Weekend, For a Change

I was invited to Ocean Isle Beach, NC this weekend. Had a blast! It was so beautiful and I was told that I HAD to relax. Kind of hard for me to do but I think I pulled it off. I even have the sunburn to prove it! There was a car club down for the weekend, the youngest car was from 1927! It was so interesting to see this preserved history. The cars were on their way to an old age home in Calabash to give the residents a treat.

Hope your weekend was awesome!

Governor Pat?

Mayor Pat McCrory of Charlotte, North Carolina is affectionately called "Mayor Pat" and he may well be on his way to being Governor Pat. I went to his Primary Party last night where we were able to watch the returns and celebrate his win with him. As usual, I knew about 10 of the people in the room. One of whom wouldn't return my calls or emails and probably didn't recognize me, but dude, not nice, not cool. Be courteous and return phone calls and/or emails. It's okay to say you're not interested, and everything will be fine, but I will never forgive rudeness.

Anyway, back to my Mayor Pat story, it's amazing to me, coming from Los Angeles, how you can know so many people in such a short time. I'll go on the record to say that I'm not a Republican (big surprise to those who know me) so I wasn't able to cast my vote for Mayor Pat in the primaries, but I absolutely support him and will work for him over the coming months. He has strong values, good morals and has done a bang up job in Charlotte. I've only been here three years so I can only imagine the growing pains and planning that the city has undertaken during the 12 years (I think that's right) that Mayor Pat has been mayor. He's very accessible and has a good sense of humor. I think he'll be a great governor.

The problem that I had with last night was that the crowd was about as white as they come. I don't know if that's an indicator of the Mayor's supporters, or if that just happened to be the crowd that evening, but if that is the makeup of his constituency, then we need to diversify that up. Okay?

Now for the really good news, I'm off to the beach for the weekend. I FINALLY met a friend who has a friend who owns a condo. I couldn't be happier!

Keep the faith.
