A wonderful heart-lifting smile-creating post, Nerdy Wonka. Such a gift and a joy to read and see. What SUEDUVALL SMITH said — the woman with the simple Thank You sign in magic marker on a small paper? There is a powerful story behind that and we don’t even need the details because we know this man, this President, this dedicated faithful tenacious leader. We know that he pushed forward to make changes and do good things which made a difference in this silent woman’s life. Profound photograph. And those smiles? And jogging out there. Makes me so happy. Thank you for TOD Chips, thank you for tireless story telling and curation and GENIUS tweeting, NerdyWonka. I think you are triplets or maybe quintuplets. I bless every one of you.
I have never seen a more engaged, positive, uplifting, REAL AMERICAN PRESIDENT in my lifetime! Honestly, he trumpets his belief in Americans and America, more than anyone. EVER. Nice to be believed in:) Nice to be told the sky’s the limit on our possibilities… rather than “we can’t” from Republicans.
Hellooooooooo Chipstics & TOD family. VC finally gave me a few minutes to sit today. She has taken me all over the northeastern portion of Toronto today and I’m pooped!
Ah ha ……. Toronto? I couldn’t remember today which city VC lived in, but when I saw spam at TOD for ‘Toronto Roofing Solutions’ I wondered had she changed businesses from that Goose thing. Does she have a truck outside her home with Toronto Roofing Solutions written on it?
It looks like POTUS is going to spend the next year reminding people of all the great work he’s done, of the extraordinary team of leaders he’s assembled and of all the people he has really helped. He has such a phenomenal record of achievement, beginning with Day One, we will look back at these years and scratch our heads over our current politics.
Now THAT made me laugh, GGail. I had a long-time friend visit me for a week a while back. One of those earl-riser types, unlike moi. I took time off from work to visit, expecting to sleep in.
One morning at 6:30 am, she was in the shower singing O Sole Mio, top of her lungs.
I LOVE THE OBAMA 08′ SHIRT BEHIND HIM…I HAVE ALL OF MINE…..I LOVE MY PRESIDENT!……2MORROW IS ‘HEY’ DAY!!!!! I HOPE…. EVERYONE HAS A SAFE AND BEAUTIFUL 4TH….WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WITH MY HUSBAND ON SATURDAY NITE….WILL BE BACK ONLINE FOR AWHILE TOMORROW…BLESSINGS EVERYONE!
So you snuck off to Canada with my buddy and no one told me. Although I keep telling our friend that I don’t do the North. She’ll have to come South next year with all the rest of my TOD family so we can serenade the White House until the Secret Service throws us off the White House grounds.
So glad you got to go and the weather isn’t frigid cold :):)
Thanks DD! I was slightly concerned that I had picked the wrong time of the year, because it rained daily prior to my landing, then the sun began to peep out yesterday and today it’s beautiful. We’ve spoken warmly of you and our TOD family <3
It is quite touching, meta. When the camera focused on him you could see the tears on his cheek. I just thought it too special not to acknowledge it by sending it to PBO. Thanks for the RT :)
Watching Chris Matthew’s Hardball. I know, I know I should not be giving him the time of day. What can I say? I was bored with housework getting ready for my weekend guests. Anyhow, it had been so long since I watched him that I was shocked to hear CM argue with his two guests: Vox and Washington Post people defending Prez Obama as a transformative president. You could tell the woman from WP was a Hillary supporter against the idea and the Vox guy was really adamant against the idea.
Yes, we can; yes, we did and yes, we will continue to do so. PBO has led the way, but as ever he reminds us of our own power to affect change. We are indeed the ones that we have been waiting for and when we are engaged, not even the skies are the limits.
Looks as though the President had a very nice day. So glad.
My day? Thanks for asking. :) My son was discharged from the hospital!!!!! He’s doing great, according to the surgeon, and has a full recovery regimen and appointments all set up for future weeks. So, tonight? ICE CREAM PARTY!
Thanks again to everyone for their well wishes, good thoughts, and prayers, from near and far, and to CanadaBarb for being my ghostwriter here and loving friend. My whole family appreciates it. You are all kinda like the cherry on top. <3
Oooooooh Jacqueline, just the very best news, so so so thrilled your son is home, wishing him all the VERY best in his recovery. I hope you’re going to try and rest now, you must be absolutely drained. Love ya.
you are all my family….when i was going through my health challenges earlier this year, Jackie was there posting on my behalf and i felt honoured to be able to do such a small bit part keeping everyone updated…..it’s been 8 years since a lot of us started on OFA and finally found TOD and our sister Chips, for whom we are so very grateful….FOREVER AND ALWAYS
J’OB, this is AWESOME good news. I thank you for letting us know how your son is doing. I’ll continue him & you in my prayers for continued improvement <3
JO’B - didn’t even know your son was in the hospital - I must have missed your earlier postings on it earlier. Anyway glad to hear your and his good news and wishing him a speedy and smooth recovery!
I AM SO SORRY I MISSED SOMETHING JOB…HAVE BEEN IN AND OUT…SO HAPPY FOR YOUR SON…PRAYERS FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY FOR COMFORT AND HEALING AND REFRESHING HUGS FROM JESUS!
Bob. Alexis Tsipras is telling the truth. Especially about the media ignoring him and the hit job the Troika are performing on Greece.
They drove up the debt, distributed money to their own advantage, and are looking to enslave Greece for the knowable future. Very similar to bankers in 2008 disaster,
I admire Alexis Tsipras but I doubt he will prevail. The united forces of the Corporatocracy have massed against the people of Greece. It is unlikely that the message of sanity will get through.
If you doubt me, consider Wisconsin who elected Scott Walker 3 times.
Or Kansas.
Hey TOD Family Chipsticks GGail and VC. GGail is truly enjoying her visit. Time is flying by so fast. So happy to hear J O’B’s son is going home and feeling tons better. Who says prayer doesn’t work? At TOD our prayer warriors are wonderful. Thank you nerdy & Chips for bringing good news about what PBO is doing for the American people.
TV Land is taking some flack for no longer airing the “Dukes of Hazzard” due to the prominence given the confederate flag in the show, most notably on the roof of the “general lee”, their car. Imagine how sick it would be to have a show where the lead characters drive a car with a Swastika emblazoned on its roof. That would be undeniably offensive. Why then is the confederate flag treated differently? They both symbolize racist ideologies. They were both used by forces who lost wars based on racist ideologies. Nazi’s died fighting for their racist ideology, just as the confederate soldier died fighting for his. Dying for an ideology does not automatically make that death virtuous. Hate groups use both flags to terrorize their primary targets, and when ever racists gather in this country, you will find a confederate flag. They know what this flag symbolizes. And they know that flag causes Black folks pain. They just don’t care. What makes the confederate apologists so amusing is they are the first ones to speak of “patriotism” while worshipping at the alter of a flag flown by traitors to this very nation. As I have said before, “patriotism” and loyalty to “country” really seem to mean adherence to the doctrine of white supremacy.
We are fine. The apartment building that is burning is less than a block from the Queen Anne fire station!!! But, a blaze that large - entirely wooden structure - received the appropriate multi-alarm response from Seattle FD because it’s located in a densely packed neighborhood of other homes, condos and apartments.
What a lovely song written by Hannah Bajakian in honor of our military soldiers and their families..Hannah is a 9th grader who met FLOTUS during the Mother’s Day lunch and she gave a copy of the song to our wonderful FLOTUS.
Well I will bid you all a good night. My day started off kind of crazy with the scare at the Navy Yard but that turned out okay and I got to stay home and play with you all today.
Let the 4th of July Holiday weekend begin.
I’m gonna pop some fresh popcorn and pour me some diet green tea and watch a good movie.
Good Night Everyone :-c
Oh and don’t forget to follow Tally’s employee on twitter. Her earlier note to us:
Hey TOD Tweeters! Speaking of JOBS – I need a giant favor….. if you can find it in your heart to follow my day gig account, where I make all the Covered CA magic happen, that would help me score points with my boss. Thanks so much!!!
Donna - I recalled (I thought) your saying your office was close to the Navy Yard, and you were the first person I thought of, when I saw that report earlier in the day. Thank God it ended well!

Nice to be believed in:) Nice to be told the sky’s the limit on our possibilities… rather than “we can’t” from Republicans.
This!
right you are DF! :D
Hellooooooooo Chipstics & TOD family. VC finally gave me a few minutes to sit today. She has taken me all over the northeastern portion of Toronto today and I’m pooped!
You are having fun with VC, our VC! How is the weather?
Ah ha ……. Toronto? I couldn’t remember today which city VC lived in, but when I saw spam at TOD for ‘Toronto Roofing Solutions’ I wondered had she changed businesses from that Goose thing. Does she have a truck outside her home with Toronto Roofing Solutions written on it?
Hi NCLB & Chips! Today the weather is BEAUTIFUL, sun shining, clear blue skies, no SMOG. Truly lovely.
Now, about that truck… :-)
I knew it!
:D :D and she just looked over my shoulder and read what you wrote and laughed!
You DID go visit VC!! OMG…I missed that entire conversation….hugs to both of you…HAVE FUN!
Yes DF, my secret destination is indeed the home of our “quiet one” VC. Let me tell you, she ain’t all that quiet :D
“Let me tell you, she ain’t all that quiet”
I am SHOCKED!1!1!1! :lol:
:D :D :D :D
She & I can talk all day & all night. OMG!
I believe that! Toronto is such a beautiful, international city. Have fun, you two!
It’s been a big RUSE!!
Hahahahahahaha! meta :-) you were holding your own when I called you during my layover in San Francisco :wink:
Big surprise…let’s face it…any ONE OF US loves to talk!!
The weird thing is I could barely hear you there was so much background noise in the airport!
You’ll get another chance next Monday while I’m on my way home :-)
Like Chips..I’m SHOCKED!! :)
Okay guys. She’s been busy preparing her fruits for this dehydration process she’s roped me into, but she’ll be on here eventually, so be warned! :D
Yum:) She’s making fruit leather?? My husband used to make that in his dehydrator…it’s good!
I purchased me some already dehydrated…just in case :-)
I totally thought GGail would have to do all the chatting, DF, I’m stunned to hear VC is talkative!
I’m not surprised at all:) Look what she does when she gets up a head of steam with amk!!
OMG, can you imagine if Amk arrived in VC’s home? I’m pretty sure PBO would send in the SEALs to rescue GGail.
He would have to! I would lose my mind if they both were here :shock:
:lol: Actually, I’d come and rescue you myself!
That would be awesome, because she really wants you to visit her :-)
Heh!!!
Heh!!!
Uh oh. Hello Amk.
trashing a saintly, godly man behind his back. tch, tch, tch.
Heh!!!
Ha ha, these “quiet” canadians :D
Gotta watch out… Glad you are having a great time.
It looks like POTUS is going to spend the next year reminding people of all the great work he’s done, of the extraordinary team of leaders he’s assembled and of all the people he has really helped. He has such a phenomenal record of achievement, beginning with Day One, we will look back at these years and scratch our heads over our current politics.
Meta…
Thisssss is what the DEMS should be running on..these issues…..the President is laying out a manuscript…….JUST DO IT!!!
Yeah, it’s like he’s handing them the script. What more could they possibly want!
VC and GG - sounds like you guys are having a gas! :D
Hello a4alice, I’m having a lovely time on vacation at VC’s home. She lets me sleep till 8am EST which is 5am PST :D
Ha!
Now THAT made me laugh, GGail. I had a long-time friend visit me for a week a while back. One of those earl-riser types, unlike moi. I took time off from work to visit, expecting to sleep in.
One morning at 6:30 am, she was in the shower singing O Sole Mio, top of her lungs.

I think this is the furst time EVER I’ve seen what everyone else was seeing :cool:
Look at the white dot on the woman’s nose for 15 seconds, then look at the white space on her right:
Did you see her REGULAR face, as if she had her photo taken? Well THAT was cool:)
Oh WOW, that’s groovy
So you snuck off to Canada with my buddy and no one told me. Although I keep telling our friend that I don’t do the North. She’ll have to come South next year with all the rest of my TOD family so we can serenade the White House until the Secret Service throws us off the White House grounds.

are you in vancouver? i live here…would love to link up
Wow! That was incredible. I saw it.
Honest Donna, I NEVER see these things, I feel like my work on earth is now done!
Not quite yet. You’ve got to marry that Rooney guy first. :) :) :)
Look at you posting Rooney pics!!!! :lol: Well, now my work on earth IS done!!!
I thought that you posted this pic Chips - it was DonnaD, whaaaaat?!!!!
One of my fave TOD moments EVER, GGail - Donna is a Roooooooooney lover!
Ummmm not so fast young Lady.
I think you misspelled that name. You meant to type that I’m a Cloooooooooney lover.
There’s no going back Donna, I could sense your lust when you posted that Rooooooooooooney pic :cool:
lawd lawd lawd. I’m too old for these kind of thoughts
No. No You Are Not. :)
WHOA
That is one pretty man!!!!
OMG!!!!
oh my, there we go. nice.
fun!
what the hell was that?
jedibt #mindtrick.Congrats on 1st Allison!!!
Another OUTSTANDING “President’s Day” post by NW!!!!! Thank you
Rather cool …
Very impressed with the business Steve Cottrell created ….
Thanks for this, I didn’t catch it the first time around.
It is quite touching, meta. When the camera focused on him you could see the tears on his cheek. I just thought it too special not to acknowledge it by sending it to PBO. Thanks for the RT :)
I saw him tearing up Meta, when PBO gave him kudos. I am sure this will give him more business.
Oh my….This is indeed so moving. Thanks Bob for posting.
You’re welcome, hf2 :)
You’re on a roll this evening!!!
Hope n Change is working out just fine for me, I tell ya! :) Thanks Nerdy for this great post.
:)
I Love My President!!!
Me too! :)
Absolutely love your description of this collection Chips. You are so right. :)
But I ran out of space, COS!! :-)
Right onnnnnn…Right on!!
the worstest possible clowns running for office anywhere in the world.

At TOD our prayer warriors are wonderful. Thank you nerdy & Chips for bringing good news about what PBO is doing for the American people.

HA!
~ 5 blocks from our home ….
so far, no reports of injuries …. sure hope it stays that way …
Wow I hope everyone is okay and you stay safe Bob
Bob, glad to know you are safe, sure hope MP is safe also
Thank you Donna and Gail.
We are fine. The apartment building that is burning is less than a block from the Queen Anne fire station!!! But, a blaze that large - entirely wooden structure - received the appropriate multi-alarm response from Seattle FD because it’s located in a densely packed neighborhood of other homes, condos and apartments.
Wow, so glad you’re in safe territory. I’m sure you can smell it, though.
Oh, Bob, stay safe!
So who’s smarter than a 5th grader in Tennessee???
