My 18 year old daughter is so kind!
She cleaned up all the red nail varnish I dropped on the floor and tried to remove before my run.
When I got back, it was all gone! She explained that she felt my pain and wanted me to be happy! ❤️❤️

I spent the afternoon at the Food bank in San Clemente.
We packed many of these boxes with fresh produce donated by the big stores!
I told my mom in Zimbabwe and she couldn’t believe that people got free food. There is such hunger there.

I did! But when my 20 year old daughter got a big blood clot in her arm after Moderna booster, and spent three days in ICU, and had surgery, I am not sure.
The side effects are so random, so this is scary.
My dreams came true today!
I became an American citizen🇺🇸🇺🇸!
I have come so far from my land of birth, Zambia, my home in Zimbabwe and South Africa!
I pledged my “heart to America and she will return that love and loyalty.”
