Obama Fever and Face Cream

Tuesday. Obama is being sworn in as American president today. The inauguration is at 12 sharp in Washington. On radio 4 they were interviewing some people who said that despite the bad state of the economy there, the memorabilia trade was doing very well indeed, as people were rushing to buy anything marking the historic occasion to hand down to their grandchildren. Yesterday they were interviewing Obama's stepmother who lives in England. She has now become a celebrity in her local bingo hall, signing autographs and so on. She is invited to the inauguration and is very excited about it. An unenviabletime to become president though.

When it was televised the vast crowds were amazing to see.

Running out of the Solace Aromatherapy organic violet leaf face cream, and not finding any more on their website, I ordered some aloe vera anti-wrinkle face cream with hyacinth and violet leaf essential oils from Healing Hands Organic Aromatherapy on Ebay. These hand-made creams are very good, extremely reasonable and contain no rubbish. To obtain more of this cream I can ring Tracey in Sutton Coldfield, which may be handy if it disappears from their site.
