Thank you for your support.

If elected, I will be the first Asian American -- a Filipina -- to serve on El Monte's City Council. I ask humbly for your vote on November 8.

Please read my postings below about my busy days campaigning for City Council, wrangling my Ally, working full-time, and running a household.

Is there room on my plate?

Today is Ally's first day in First Grade. I met her new teacher and the school's new principal. After my brief conversation with the principal, Ms. Pinedo asked if I was interested in being part of the PTA leadership.

I really wanted to say, "yes" but my plate is full between my job as mom and wifey, my full-time job at Kaiser Permanente, Medicare's upcoming open enrollment, City Council campaigning, community forums, endorsement interviews, fundraisers, Girl Scouts, cheerleading, my jewelry business, and five loads of laundry a week.

I wish there was more time in a day. I'd be more than happy to lead the PTA...that's project manager Verna talking, but laundry mom Verna is saying...NO MAS!
