“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Back To Blogging After Week Long Vacation

Mom, Liliana, and Dad
Wow, it seems like forever since I posted a blog, but Ryan and I took a vacation for a week and headed down to Corpus Christi to visit family and our new baby niece, Liliana. She is absolutely precious and adorable.

Liliana is the first grandchild and niece "by blood" in our family. My sister and her husband have been trying for years to have a baby and were blessed with a miracle 10 months ago when she became pregnant.

In either case, Ryan and I had a fabulous time! We went to the Texas State Aquarium, Port Aransas, and took my mother shopping. Ryan also took the liberty of taking on a new hobby - seashell collecting. Whatever makes him happy, I love him dearly.

I may throw in a few posts here and there over the weekend, but I should be back in full force by Monday, October 3rd.  Enjoy your weekend and have a fabulous day!

I love you bunches my angel. I just loved our most recent vacation. And would you believe it that I already have the rest of my sea shell collection already planned out, that is, after we get out debt of course. Can't wait. Love you bunches. We made great memories with you and your family that week. I'm so glad your Mom went with us to the aquarium. I knew she'd have so much fun! It was a blast and I can't wait to do it all again.....after debt. Love you bunches.
