I found a cool website pretty much by accident today; www.weareamericaalliance.org It's an immigrant organization that basically encourages people to contact senators etc. like many others but is also encouraging 1 million Latinos to register to vote. Fewer Hispanics are registered to vote than any other ethnic group in America; of course some of that is due to immigration status (permanent residents cannot vote), but even those who could vote don't in many cases. Anyway, I thought it was worth visiting.
Daniel's new word: cooba (school bus)
We went out tonight for Mother's Day, since May 10 is Mother's Day in Mexico and I'll be half-asleep Sunday. And I was absolved from doing any housework today. I did, however, have to make a trip to the Teeter for trash bags, milk, bananas, and a Mountain Dew.
We are getting some chili peppers in on our chili pepper plants that Jesus is cultivating in our backyard. Still waiting on the beans, peas, and tomatoes. My husband is the only human alive I know that is resourceful enough to dry out seeds from veggies we buy at the store and plant them and actually make them grow!
"The Da Vinci Code" the movie : to see or not to see??
Today in my devotional I ran across this very encouraging piece of Scripture, and since it says to encourage one another with these words, here they are: "And now, brothers and sisters, I want you to know what will happen to the Christians who have died so you will not be full of sorrow like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus comes, God will bring back with Jesus all the Christians who have died. I can tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not rise to meet Him ahead of those who are in their graves. For the Lord Himself will come down from Heaven with a commanding shout, with the call of the archangel and with teh trumpet call of God. First, all the Christians who ahve died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and remain with Him forever. So comfort and encourage each other with these words." 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

Should you see "The Davinci Code"? The real question, "Should you see 'Dude, Where's my Car?"
That one is a definite no.
