SItting on Hold with DMV or do they call it Adot?

Anyway, I'm on hold with Motor Vehicles trying to figure out where my $326.00 went? I paid, but late and forgot the fee... So My money sits in limbo and my car is not registered. ...

The songs are o.k. but sung by different people.. Like the DOORS and ONLY THE DOORS should sing Fire...or whatever the name of that song is.

I've posted a picture taken at the BBQ with Adams family a couple of weeks ago. A Wonderful woman took and sent two of these pictures. Kathie looked better in the other picture, I look better (less chins) in this one.. Sorry Kathie. But I did not photoshop in the droopy neck I have or made you look 20 pound heavier.. :)

If I knew how, I would.. Make you heavier.

We're twins, Kathie and I. Identical.. a good thing to know your entire life, is that there is a set of organs available if you need them.. Well not including the heart. We've been together so to speak since before we were born. Once we were one. Not Psychic, but I do feel her pain when she feels it. The darkness creeps in and almost seems to overwhelm me during those times in our life when Kathie is pain emotionally. I've always been amazed at how she changes in accordance with the changes in her life. Rises up to face it; usually wants to explore it and the reasons for it; makes changes in her thought processes and life to accept the situation causing her pain. Pain doesn't stay with Kathie long, Thank God, or I'd go crazy.. I look up to my twin sister and marvel at all she has conquered in her life. All the things she can make o.k. for people, one person at a time. I'm glad I know Kathie, I'm glad I grew up with her, watched raise her family and now, watch her with her grand kids. 

It's good to be your sister Kathie

O.K. still on hold.......

Making memories

I started this post some two hours ago, meaning to talk  about the pictures I picked out with Sabby today. We're going to put new pictures in her frames to take up to Tahoe. When I sat down to write the post, and typed out Making Memories, I thought.. Damn, they're out in the pool and I"m in here.. So, I went out and made some memories with Sabby and Katie. Too busy to take pictures, so I'll post the pictures Sabby and I picked out.

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog today.

Memorial Day

I don't like talking politics on my blog. But I will today. 

I was always a republican.. Except for that time in the 70's when I voted for Jerry Brown for President.. I was raised a republican pretty much. My mom was a democrat and voted for John Kennedy while my dad voted for Nixon. I liked Kennedy because he was young, handsome and had a kid about my age. Mom converted and ours became a republican household. 

When I met my husband, he was a democrat (labor democrat), but after we were married (by chance) he never voted democrat again. He's since re-registered as a republican.

I've evolved over the years of my life. Mostly I was a moderate Republican. I'm VERY pro life as I believe life is from God and Only God can give and take life. I'm also against the Death Penalty for the same reason. Societies are judged by the way we treat our most vulnerable members. I'm thinking our Society cannot come out very well under that scrutiny.

I became a believer in the Unions, because I saw first hand the way companies take advantage of their employees.  

I was a supporter of George Bush, twice. I'm not sure anymore how I feel about that now. I liked him and he became my hero after 9/11 and the way he led this country after the nightmare of of that day. He was no coward, throwing out the first pitch at Yankee stadium a few short weeks later. However, I'm not sure how I feel about him anymore.

I voted for Obama in the last election. And I think McCain was a true American leader when he made his concession speech.  

I watch 24/7 news channels a lot. I've started watching with a new eye. FOX is NOT fair and balanced, on the other side MSNBC is too far to the left (in my humble opinion). 

CNN--- Why did I believe all that about them being too far to the left? Of the three, they seem the most unbiased. Just saying. Their tribute to "our fallen" today is something else and got me thinking....

I re-registered this year as a Democrat. So I guess now, I'm a moderate Democrat. A little fearful these days but very hopeful. 

I'm writing this post today, and spilling my political guts in tribute to all the young men and woman, who've died protecting my Freedom of Speech, since the beginning of our country's story.  Such promise they had, and the families who mourned them; what sacrifices they made. It's the least I can do for them.. To exercise the rights they died to preserve.
