"Writing" The key to my soul

I have writing ever since I could remember and reading for twice as long. Whether its poetry or a short story I have written it, or whether its a novel love story I have read it.

I have written so many thins it is had to keep tract or even to remember some of the things that I have written about, it has gotten to a point where I am running out of note books to write in and running out of space to store book that I have read.

So I have come to the conclusion that I need to take this writing thing seriously, so I have decided to go one of so many way.

1. Actually finish writing a book and have it published. (I have so may ideas floating around in my head it's like a circus).

2. Start yet another blog where I will post my stories for the masses, no mtter how racy.

or (drawing a blank). Help a sista out!!!!

Life Changes

I now I have not updated my blog for awhile now but I have been extremely busy at home and work. The office is getting busier and busier everyday, I keep going in early and leaving later and later.

At home is even more stressing, I decided to invite my cousin and her daughter to live with me and my hubby, and a few months ago hubby decided he wanted his kids(ages 10 & 4) to come live with us. So I have gone to living practically alone to living with 3 kids. Lord give me strength.

Wht can I do thou, as I always say"Its Family" and we all do what we can to help each other out.

IMMIGRATION REFORM

In recent weeks the state of Arizona has made it known the lengths they will go to for there so called immigration reform and as much as I want to blame them for there stupidity, I cant because it is full time this country start discussing immigration reform and stop pushing it to the side. According to the US there are over eleven million illegal immigrants in the country (how exactly they came up with this number since they dont know who these people are, is simply proposterus).

I understand the main focus before was on the economy and the healthcare system and of course the war in Iraq, but Washington must be made to understand that finding and legalizing undocumented immigrants is a step towards they future for this country. There are millions of people out there some working (wanting to pay taxes but are afraid), some working and paying taxes(also scared of one day getting kicked out from the very county they have been paying taxes to.

The new law they are trying to pass in Arizona should open the eyes of the president, democrats and republicans alike to stop thinking about themselves and their political agendas and think about this country not only to protect the people that are here, (whether lawful or unlawful) and also find a way to keep out those that would do the country harm.

We as american cannot keep grouping all illegal immigrants together, there are kids that were brought here by there parents since they were babies and are only finding out when they graduated highschool and looking to go to college they they are illegal in this county. What are these children to do? They are highschool graduates, looking to become doctors or even lawyers, but they are stuck because most colleges will not accept them without the necessary documentation, nor will they find legitamate paying jobs that will allow them to work and go to school (since it is illegal to hire an undocumented worker).

I say the time for excuses is over, who cares that elections are in november, the time for immigration reform is now, not tomorrow, not nextweek, not next month, or next year, the time to bring forth an immigration plan to bring people out of the shadows, let them pay a fine for entering the country illegally, those without criminal records will step to the front of the line and get a shot at what they have been aiming for, a shot at the american dream.
