If I were Oboma-How to keep the Whitehouse 2012
I have written no books, nor have I been called by the president for advice. But I should note I have been right (thought not verbally) in every election since Carter. Does that make me an expert, maybe not!
Obama says changes re pending in January for the next two years. Let me suggest a big one! Prepare Hillary for Vice President in 2012. She has never been so popular and you have lost your supporters as noted in 2010.
I say run with her now or then or I would recommend she take you on! This is basic politics or the republicans will eat you alive! As seen in midterm elections you lost your base and Oprah (she gets the red neck white woman vote). But she will be out of the limelight then trying to survive on OWN.
I always looked at Obama as a smart man, though sometimes I think his wife is more of a leader. Dude, listen change and win or go down as Carter did. You’re no Reagan!

Complete Circle
I am amazed how things come to a complete circle in life. I find myself doing the things I did as a teenager or younger and as the memory lapses depending on other as in the early years.
No-one talks about it, but we come into a complete circle in life. It's not a bad thing if you’re with someone you love. Last night due to my spasms Rob rubs my legs constantly reminds me to do certain things as I often remember my mother saying.
I don't know what 2011 has in store for me/us, but starting the year with someone you love surrounded by family that loves you has to be a good foundation for things to come.

Reality kicks in! What to do with so much clothes!
I received the official letter from SSDI on my benefits yesterday and reality kicked in! First let me say that I deeply appreciate everyone for assisting and getting this major accomplishment in record time. That being said, it hit me when I received the letter!
I opened one of my closets and said what I do with all this clothes. Over the years I have accumulated at least 150 shirts, 100 or so sweaters, about 30 suits and let’s not mention shoes. Rob and I spoke and yes he can wear some of this stuff and I of course can also for some functions. But what to do with the majority of this clothes?
First we thought we could sell it for almost nothing to consignment shops or maybe give it away to a charity like Goodwill, they are everywhere down here. Some we could and already started giving to family. But ultimately we decided to have a spring yard sale with the balance going to charity.
I can't say it will be easy. I have memories with every piece of garment I have and every time I depart with something emotions run high. But being disabled and not moving around much I can't see all of this clothes hanging around not being used
Some of these garments cost me lots of money! They were purchased when I had money. It's only proper that I either give them away for almost nothing to someone who will appreciate it. Dam, I hate when reality kicks in!

Time to Celebrate the Holiday's
Rob and I are wrestling with our annual Xmas party. Since arriving in Tampa things are somewhat set as to who does what and we don't want to rock the boat! Xmas eve we are at my cousins and we always have a good time. Xmas day we are with my aunt and the similar, a good time always held by all.
Of course we have the privilege of kicking of the holidays with the Thanksgiving dinner being held here. But we don’t have all the lights up and the house decorated so we kind of want to show that off.
We are not very lucky with these parties after leaving Jersey. First I never know when I am going to get sick and then it's all on Rob second we had a big second family there.
So we are aiming for a small get together on the 18th! Just local neighbors, some family and friends for drinks and appetizers. Why celebrate the holidays if you don’t have those you love stop by?
