First Lady “Frugalista” Michelle Obama on Extreme Makeover

I dubbed First Lady Michelle Obama a “Frugalista,”when I discovered that despite her high profile position, she reuses the clothes that she wears. She’s going to be on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, tonight. The First Lady, along with Extreme Makeover, is helping out former Navy soldier Barbara Marshall who runs a program that provides women veterans with housing and other needs. I got a sneak peak of the episode and it’s truly inspiration and thought provoking. These women vets fight for our country and have a tough transition when they return from war. No vet should be homeless!
It’s airing tonight, Sept. 25 on ABC at 7pm est.
