Theresa May began her political career in the middle of Margaret Thatcher’s premiership and has long been touted as the woman most likely to become Britain’s second female prime minister.

Later today Theresa May becomes the new Prime Minister of Great Britain. She follows in the steps of Sir Winston Churchill and Baroness Margaret Thatcher. From what I have read she will be a tough leader and will have to negotiate terms of the Brexit leave of the European Union. She is going to have her work cut out for her as she succeeds outgoing Prime Minister David Cameron who served for six years. .

My British/UK friends, what say you about your new Prime Minister? 

We All Have Tough Days

Friends, no matter what your day was like it has the possibility of being better tomorrow. We all have tough days and we need to be strong when we can, but vulnerable when you have to be. Rely upon the kindness of others to get you through and when you can be there for others. When your days are more like months seek help, don’t wallow in misery. Seek out guidance, discernment and understanding. Tomorrow is another day although all we have promised is today, minute by minute. Grace, peace and love good people.

Status Update

The day is done. Thank goodness. Chilling out feels great right about now. I hope you are having a restful time or will have a restful time wherever you might be.

Sec. Clinton and Sen. Sanders have come together. I am pleased with this. We shall see how things go heading into the convention. Perhaps she will choose him as her VP running mate. Some aren’t thrilled with this but it is what it needs to be. Voting is important and we have much to decide in November.

Tunes Tuesday – Devo – “Whip It”

“Whip It” is one of Devo’s most popular songs. The video is just weird in all the right ways. It along with other songs inspired “Weird Al” Yankovic’s “Dare To Be Stupid”.
