I'm so glad to be off work.....

So I've been off work since June 3rd and I house sat for 3 weeks and I'm finally home with my Delilah and Rolie. It's nice because we have been staying up late together and sleeping in together. He's been going into work later, so it's nice to spend time with him in the mornings. We bought a new camera last night, I can't wait to use it. We wanted to get one before we went to the Coldplay concert so we could get really good pictures. The concert is next month but Costco had a coupon and a good deal so we got it.

It's nice to just hang out at home and relax. I've been doing girl's night out with my Mom. We done about 3 so far and another one on Thurs. It's fun there are local women selling certain products like Tupperware, Mary Kay, Dove, purses, and jewerly. Also we have a show coming up in Aug. a weekend trip and we get a good deal on our table because of my scarves, so I am making a lot to be able to show. I'm sure not a lot will sell because it will be warm, but we'll see.

I've been doing a lot of cleaning, and organizing and it's nice to clean up stuff. Also we are getting more wedding stuff done. My Nana is coming this Sat. and is staying until my sister's birthday July 17th. So I am going to be spending a lot of time with her, she is moving to Texas in Aug. and so I'm not sure when I will get to see her again. San Diego is an easy trip .. maye Texas won't be that hard.. It's just the weather there.. I've never been there.. So we will see.

All by my lonesome and can't stop thinking about him..





So today was a very interesting.. sad.. wondering.. happy.. day.. My Mom and I ventured to Hollister about a hour or so drive to go to her friends memorial service which was soooooooooo emotional. We went to the lady's daughter's house after to have lunch, on the way back we stopped at Casa de Fruta and mama bought me some blackberry muscat wine.. OOO yum.. I felt so tired and drained and was ready for bed. Ro ventured on a trip to San Francisco with my Dad, step-mom Darice and my lil sis Sam. We had dinner with them last night and they mentioned they were going to SF Farmer's Market because Dad had an article to write and needed some farmer's market pics. Ro being the bold and upfront man he is.. invites himself. =0) Of course they said yes so my sister began making notes for Ro what to bring what time to come, she was excited. So they talked about what I wanted, what they could buy me. So all day I was wondering what they were doing were they having a good time, was he comfortable, was he enjoying himself, did he eat, what did he eat.. tons of questions on wonders all day long.. lol So I get back to the house I'm housesitting at and call him to see what's goin on.. He says they are driving back and he will come over when he get's back. The clock ticks ticks away.. waiting.. waiting.. about 7:30 comes around and he comes over, with bags of stuff he bought for ME! First you have to understand something.. Ro isn't the type to just buy me something.. He waits the last day before Christmas, Ann.,Birthday, Valentines... any holiday to buy me a gift. I only get flowers when he's in trouble and for the first time this year he bought me flowers for our last ann. before we are married. I'm shocked and think these are the things my parents said they would get me... NO! He bought me peaches,pistachios,chocolate cookies,strawberries,leftovers from his lunch ( yummy sushi), and mochi ( Japanese dessert which is best fresh), and some sticks of flavored honey.. Moments like this remind me why I am going to marry this man, because he is always finding ways to surprise me to let me know he is thinking about me, when I think he's not. Also he calls me to let me know he reactivated his Facebook account so we can talk on the chat instead of on the phone and so we can leave each other messages.. I'm a FB addict now.. LOL So even though half my day was spent crying and mourning my Mom's friend it's nice to come home and be thought of... is heaven.. I just wanted to share how much I feel loved and love my soon to be husband.... It was cute because last night my Dad referred to Ro as my husband.. You should of seen Ro's face.. LOL Priceless.. I'm so happy that Ro and my family get along so well. I'm so happy they love each other. I'm also happy that Ro's family loves me as well.. I'm getting emotional... Time to post some of my fav.pics of us... MUAH BOO! Cause I know you will read this.. =0)

One reason I will start to like this guy...

For Immediate Release June 1, 2009

LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENDER PRIDE MONTH, 2009
- - - - - - -
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION

Forty years ago, patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn in New York City resisted police harassment that had become all too common for members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. Out of this resistance, the LGBT rights movement in America was born. During LGBT Pride Month, we commemorate the events of June 1969 and commit to achieving equal justice under law for LGBT Americans.

LGBT Americans have made, and continue to make, great and lasting contributions that continue to strengthen the fabric of American society. There are many well-respected LGBT leaders in all professional fields, including the arts and business communities. LGBT Americans also mobilized the Nation to respond to the domestic HIV/AIDS epidemic and have played a vital role in broadening this country's response to the HIV pandemic.

Due in no small part to the determination and dedication of the LGBT rights movement, more LGBT Americans are living their lives openly today than ever before. I am proud to be the first President to appoint openly LGBT candidates to Senate-confirmed positions in the first 100 days of an Administration. These individuals embody the best qualities we seek in public servants, and across my Administration -- in both the White House and the Federal agencies -- openly LGBT employees are doing their jobs with distinction and professionalism.

The LGBT rights movement has achieved great progress, but there is more work to be done. LGBT youth should feel safe to learn without the fear of harassment, and LGBT families and seniors should be allowed to live their lives with dignity and respect.

My Administration has partnered with the LGBT community to advance a wide range of initiatives. At the international level, I have joined efforts at the United Nations to decriminalize homosexuality around the world. Here at home, I continue to support measures to bring the full spectrum of equal rights to LGBT Americans. These measures include enhancing hate crimes laws, supporting civil unions and Federal rights for LGBT couples, outlawing discrimination in the workplace, ensuring adoption rights, and ending the existing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy in a way that strengthens our Armed Forces and our national security. We must also commit ourselves to fighting the HIV/AIDS epidemic by both reducing the number of HIV infections and providing care and support services to people living with HIV/AIDS across the United States.

These issues affect not only the LGBT community, but also our entire Nation. As long as the promise of equality for all remains unfulfilled, all Americans are affected. If we can work together to advance the principles upon which our Nation was founded, every American will benefit. During LGBT Pride Month, I call upon the LGBT community, the Congress, and the American people to work together to promote equal rights for all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America , by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States , do hereby proclaim June 2009 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. I call upon the people of the United States to turn back discrimination and prejudice everywhere it exists.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand nine, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-third.

BARACK OBAMA
