Success

It may have been a busy week, but it was a very successful week. Thursday was by far the busiest day, with my work day starting at 3 am and ending somewhere around 9 pm. The "Healthy You! Health Fair on the West Steps of the State Capitol was a huge success with at least 400-450 people coming to see the 20 health and community organizations represented and to pick up their very own copy of a new health resource guide "A Healthy You!"

Next it was off to setup the Healthy You! booth at Black Expo 2008 and finally off to win some awards at the 21st Annual SPRA Cappies. I came home with an award for my work on the Karen Gaffney Tahoe Challenge and numerous awards for the work my team and I did for the Partnership for Prescription Assistance. Friday I was able to continue to hand out health related information at Black Expo 2008, including my favorite brochure of all time, "Nutrition in the Fast Lane" a guide that gives all the nutrition facts for fast food restaurants throughout the country.

Now it's time to relax and pack, because on Tuesday I head to Orlando, Florida for some fun in the sun at Disney World with my mom, grandma and my brother's family.

Typo

Image
We all make typos and while I was on the Los Angeles Times Web site this morning I saw this one and had to share. Although it really would have been a political breakthrough for President Obama to visit Iran , he actually visited Iraq (note: the LA Times did correct the typo within an hour and when you clicked through to the full story it was always correct).

Roseville Galleria - Rebuilding Together

Image
Just a quick post to show pictures of the newly reopened Roseville Galleria (as you may recall I helped break the news on Sunday ). Only 41 stores open today, although about 70 have permits that basically say they can open when they are ready.  A few more, including Banana Republic will be opening tomorrow.  In speaking with a sales associate at GAP, they confirmed my suspicions that the person that started the fire (okay "suspected" arsonist) did not come out wearing GAP clothing as he originally claimed.  It was most likely Anchor Blue or a similar store.  The mall did have a smell a little bit like smoke and cleaning products, but overall was clean and comfortable.  The wall that has been constructed to block off one section includes quotes that were written on the Galleria's Facebook page .
