It has been a really rough two weeks for me but at least I am here with Elektra. Life’s little ups and downs make life interesting; at least, that is what I keep telling myself. The snow is pretty from the window but yuck to walk in. I love to be reminded why I live on the Gulf Coast. Surely we won’t have two years in a row of extremely cold weather. Knock on wood.

Why is abortion an issue?

Posted in Ethics and Philosophy, Politics on February 4th, 2010 by Becky Ellisor – Comments Off

One in three women will have an abortion in their lifetime and the rest should support their decisions. It is their right as a human being to decide what happens to their body, not ours or anyone elses.

Kumquats

My organic fertilizer man came by today to spray my yard and told me my Kumquats were not only ready but delicious. He is right, they are delicious and so beautiful on the tree, too. I can’t wait for spring to come so my flowers start blooming again.

A Skyline Sunset in Houston

Posted in Houston, Politics on January 26th, 2010 by Becky Ellisor – Comments Off

I drove I-45 about 6:00 tonight and I saw the most beautiful full-sky sunset I have ever seen. I was on my way to the Texas Democratic Women of Harris County monthly meeting. A wonderful bunch of women who want to see women get ahead all over the county. You are going to start seeing a lot of good coming out of this group. I am the Communications Secretary. Come join us on the last Monday night of every month, currently at HCDP on 610 North. Andrea White is our speaker next month and we plan a big event with seats limited to 300. I will let you know as soon as the meeting place is set.

I just loved this quote I ran across

So I am going to add it to my quotes page. It is a quote by George Washington our first president, who in addition was a leader among the Constitutional writers and who led the Revolution against the English. He was a great strategist and warrior. Yet this quote tells us what kind of man he really was… a great one.

It was a great day to day and I loved being alive. I wrote a poem, I exersized,I did something just for me, I organized something and I threw something out. An overall good day.
