Me: “Do you know who is Mitt Romney is?”
16 year-old: “Oh ya, isn’t he like some rock star….right?”
Wrong. Many teens today, as well as adults are extremely unprepared and uninterested in the upcoming primaries and elections. As a 24 year-old, I can honestly say that I did not become interested in politics until more recently and wish that my friends and I had been more involved from an early age. It is really important that parents help their teens and kids become more involved and informed u…

Tomorrow's numerology's day for action - a #8 Universal - today's #7 Universal Day is for observing and analyzing. It's women in the news...Michelle, Sarah, Nadya, Megan, Carla, Salma - a few notable names that pop up with the seven unknown names of Polish and French young women prisoners of Auschwitz who penciled a note, cemented it in a wall September 1944, 65 years ago, in the hope of being remembered.
While reinforcing a cement wall, on a work crew for the Nazis, seven courageous wome…

For a man who respects preparation - and observes consistent planning, managing and organizing - in detail - "luck" isn't usually an option for President Obama. However, in a #5 "expect the unexpected 'cause plans will be changed" Personal Year, we expect May - his #1 "begin projects" Personal Month - will see him doing things more spontaneously. He'll take action when happenings encourage him to shuffle his priorities and solve problems by the "hunt and peck" - "play your hunch" methods.…

Barack Obama and Susan Boyle, both in numerology #5 "expect the unexpected, surprises bring pivotal changes" Personal Year, begin the unconventional, extraordinarily fast paced activity in May. In this #2 Universal year, May the fifth month of the calendar year is a numerologists #7 "wait, analyze, read the fine print" Universal Month.
Forecasting for Barack and Susan, it's the #1 Personal Month that starts the #5 Personal Year adventures that are startling and lead to learning from experien…

There's too much going on to focus on one issue on my numerology adviser's #3 "talk up a variety of interest' Personal Day. Investments are all around us - with our investment of faith in President Obama our greatest hope for receiving dividends.
There are good domestic stock buys and worldwide mutual funds paying 3% for long term investment . Octo-Mom's investing in a giant bedroom jacuzzi instead of investing time with her kids and a Chinese researcher invested a long time with the age…

Seriously folks. I have heard more about what the Obama's are wearing and drinking than about what their policies are. Is this the 'change america needs?' I personally could give a crap if he drinks and if Michelle Obama wears sleeves. Who cares? Don't answer that. I do care however what state of clean-up our economy is going to be in a couple years after the stimulus plan has been put into effect!
But I want to talk about something I am seriously upset about. There are 2 issues that come up ar…

Humming "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" from the "Wizard of Oz" cheers and releases my negativism. It's a #3 "talk up the optimism" Universal Day and I'm feelin' it.
A look at the stock market or the job loss count could send me spiraling downward. I'm not looking. Preaching again! Ti's better to take a leaf out of N.Y. Times Columnist, Bob Herbert's reality book and recognize the true situation facing our new president. He needs time to discover which of his electioneering promises can be i…

I just read yet another gushing article about the new first family, where Barack & Michelle explained that they didn't want their daughters to become spoiled, so they would continue the same rules they'd had in Chicago. The girls had to make their own beds, they'd be cleaning up after the dog about to join them, and they'd stick to their usual morning routine, where both girls set their alarms, woke themselves up and got ready for school on their own (presumably cooking their own organic hot…

Ameriplan® has been my dream come true.....I couldn't have asked for more! When I first started looking for a Home Based Business over ten years ago, I wanted it to be something I can do from home with my computer, the internet and phone. Instead, I've done everything else....I tried selling,baskets,make-up,health and wellness products, home decor and dishes,pre-paid phone cards, and I even started a home referral business where I was the middle man for homeowners and contractors. None of this w…

Adults never cease to amaze me. There are times when it is definitely true that children play fairer than adults. In this case, Ty just isn't playing fair. The toymaker has created the Sweet Sasha and Marvelous Malia dolls. According to a story in the Washington Post, the com…

Michelle Obama wore a gorgeous white Jason Wu gown on Inauguration Night and an elegant Isabel Toledo dress with matching coat during the swearing-in ceremony. Did you love her looks as much as we did?

Now that Senator McCain has been sent back to his day job, I know you're all wondering...what's going to happen to Joe the plumber (bet you thought I was going to say Sarah Palin). Well, I'll tell you what Joe, or Sam or whatever his name is, is doing now that he's no longer on the front page of newspapers or on the tips of the tongues of debating presidential candidates. He's unclogging drains.
To be more precise, that's what my Joe the plumber was doing yesterday. You see, over the last two y…

Here's a confession I have to make after watching President elect Obama's first press conference. While I was initially interested to see if he was going to name his cabinet, I was more concerned about two important issues affecting his family. After he fielded one question about receiving a congratulatory message from the President of Iran, Obama responded to a reporter who received his sympathies after she cracked her shoulder while running to watch his victory speech in Grant Park. Here's the…

While blogs are all afire about the dress that Michelle Obama wore during her husband's victory speech Tuesday night, I've decided to not focus on her red and black Narcisco Rodriguez number, I'd prefer instead to give a shout out to her two girls. As they walked hand in hand with their…
