Today was a good day and I am now recovering from my long Holiday weekend. Had a great time and a very unexpected gift. Rodrigo got to be home with us and this I wasn't expecting...wanting but not expecting. Spent time with friends, Rodrigos family and even left the kids with his parents for a chance to have a date. A good Easter weekend!

I didn’t know Asshole was also a political agenda.
Anyone think it might be possible to be passionate about something without saying it with such anger that it gets pulled from Facebook. Comment, speak your mind... whatever just be courteous. The saddest thing is that some people want to agree with you on some points but your attitude limits the conversation.
Now I cant even post!

What does 4/20 mean to you?
What do you think of when you think of 4/20? April 20th? Ok it was an interesting thought I heard yesterday. Randi Rhodes, whom I think is the Queen of knowing what actually goes on politically in America (http://www.randirhodes.com/main.html), was talking about the significance of the day. If you asked the question what does 4/20 mean to you? You would hear probably one of these answers; The National Stoner Day, Hitler’s Birthday, Anniversary of Columbine or Anniversary of the BP Oil Spill. The next thing she said was if you wanted to put like-minded people together you could ask this question. Think about it. If you had 4 companies and divided the workers into the four companies by their answers wouldn’t you have an interesting outcome? What does 4/20 mean to you? My answer was National Stoner Day. Oh well.

Vacation
So far we are really having a great time, Rodrigo was able to have time to play this vacation and we have been spending it with his family. We had a great time. The kids played all day and stayed the night with Va & Vo. It was a nice time for all.
