Thank You The ObamaCrat.Com for nominating me for

The Sunshine Award

I am not exactly sure when I first started following The ObamaCrat.Com, but do remember that it took several times of reading the blog before I hit the “FOLLOW” button. You know me, I like to keep things light and fun and politics can be heavy and depressing. However, since there are other topics of interest sprinkled in, it made for a well rounded read.

The rules of acceptance are as follows:

Include the award’s logo in a post or on your blog – CHECK
