Disappointment

So I was truly stunned when the results on Prop #8 came in on Wednesday and the majority of the voters agreed to pass that stupid measure. I can't believe I live in a state that would amend the constitution and take rights away people. I thought if we could vote a black man into office we could also help gays. But I guess the majority of people in California aren't open to gays yet. Women had to fight to get the vote so I guess gays will have to fight longer too. But really people, I would have thought we would be more opened minded by now. I guess I was wrong.

When I came here from Michigan I must say I hadn't met a gay person (well, one that was out). Then I met several and you know what? They are no different except they happen to have feelings for the same sex. That's it people. I guess loving the same sex is "scary" for those "yes voters." If these "yes voters" were suddenly told they couldn't be married anymore because being single was the new thing, I am sure they would understand the plight of gays.

Gays want the same rights as us man/women relationship people. If you have ever truly loved a person you would know you can't help loving that person. In my opinion, you can't chose who you love, it just happens. And all people should be free to love who they want. I don't feel the government should tell people who to love. Its really none of their business. I would like people to look at the world as "Citizens of Earth." At the end of the day, we are all people of earth and we should all have the same rights being we are all citizens.

If aliens came to earth right now they wouldn't see us as man/woman relationship people but they would see us earthlings. Wouldn't it be a great place if we all looked at each other as citzens of earth so we can start picking on those Klingons?

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
