Hola Paulita! I hope you are feeling better and are not suffering from your allergies. I thought about this long and hard and this is what I came up with. Republicans are against abortion and so am I! I hate to know that for w/e reasons women take the choice of having an abortion and this procedure is done. UNNACEPTABLE! Everyone has a choice and obviously they made the wrong one! Not protecting themselves. For the ones that end up pregnant unfortunately because of a rape is still not right to have an abortion. That child still has the right to live and should be given that chance. If God allowed that to happen is for a reason! Even if McCain would of won I think that abortion still wouldn't of been forbidden at all. Bush is a republican and has not done a darn thing about it. His focus has been in the war that has been going on for 2 long! Our troops are out there fighting for our freedom to protect us and are not being taken care of when then come back nor their families. I would hate to be in those peoples positions where their loved ones are away at war not knowing if they will make it back safely! Obama has been chosen to be our next president and I think we need to pray that he is taken by the hand by God who is all powerful to guide him through this difficult journey he is about to start because the debt we are in is not going to be an easy task for him. I remember when Bill Clinton was in office that life was pretty comfortable and things were much easier. I don't remember being in so much stress thinking if I would be able to make the payments. Things changed and I hope the things change now for the best for everyone! I love my country and I am proud to be an American and I just hope that God continues to protect this land we live in because where would we end up!? I pray that God let things happen for the best for EVERYONE!!! Cheer up cousin everything will work out okay! love you lots!

big hugs for you paula. i'm sure that i would be feeling the same way today had the turnout been different. i just hope that our country can come together and get us out of the mounds of debt that we are in, help americans get back on their feet with jobs, and getting our troops out of a war that we should have been out of a long time ago.

I contemplated wearing black...
I needed some good support, so I listened to Rush Limbaugh at lunch time & he pointed out that conservatives didn't lose THAT much. In California, they upheld that marriage should be between just a man and a woman! We have to trust God. Sometimes I really wonder if Obama will get worse...if he is the anti-Christ. Then, I try to put my faith in God, ask Him to make me strong!

Long time since I updated this blogeroo of mine... So, this is what my Waldorf doll looks like!!! I'm still trying to find a name for her. In any event, here she is! Really loved the end result! I just loved this picture of Cesar. It's one of the very rare ones that he lets me take without covering his face! This is Perla, his bird that we ended up finding out is a BOY... we didn't bother changing his name. And this year, both Coco and Cesar finished their religious education for the sacraments of reconciliation and communion (Coco) and confirmation for Cesar. We are so proud of both of them! Papa Riordan was Cesar's sponsor, and we were happy to celebrate with his dad and family I've been craving the days of summer, but we haven't gotten many, so we are making the most of each one we get. As every year, we had Megan's birthday. This year the theme was Superheroes... loved it! This year all the boys in our block got together to rent a machine to dethach the ...

Before I start my update... I just had to take a picture of Connor. He is such a BOY!!! I think boys are programmed to be goofy... If you have a boy, I'm sure you have found these kids of scenes, pretty much daily! Anyways, this Good Friday I participated in The Way of the Cross celebrated at 3 pm in front of the Planned Parenthood clinic we have in Aurora. I was so glad to see such a large group, it kept growing as the minutes went by. It was pretty cold, and as usual, I was not wearing a sweater or jacket, but it was well worth it. We prayed for the babies being killed, for their mothers and for the doctors and nurses that assist them. May God help them all. As I did this, Noni came to take the kids to decorate eggs. We did decorate some at home on Saturday, too, but Noni's were a lot more dramatic, especially the one with all those feathers! Coco and Connor found some presents from the Bunny on Sunday morning. After church, we went to Noni and Papa's to celebrate with ou...

I'm a Brat... and some other happenings

Last night, I was making a mini scrapbook for a nice couple who sent Coco a Christmas present. After a little while, I went to the kitchen for a nice cold iced coke... only to find out we were out. I knew Brian had drank the last one, so I went and asked him if he bought some more, since he was the one who finished the coke. Of course, he didn't. I already knew this, since he didn't leave the house after dinner. It was sort of a passive-aggressive trick I was trying to use on him, but of course, it didn't work. Brian HATES the passive-aggressive approach. He will always tell me he needs me to tell him exactly what I expect or want him to do. Anyways, I went back to my little office, and kept working. After a while, I decided to go to bed. As I started going upstairs, I stopped and hand had this nagginsation (conversation mixed in with the nagging element) with Brian, as he read on the couch: Me: "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a glass filled with ice and coke right...
