Someone told me that when they legally changed their name they actually got it changed on their birth certificate too so you can apparently do that. But if 69 million people did that, how long would it take to process? This is kinda weird because a married name isn't the name you were BORN with
Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates.
Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?
Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

From our garden last year, our Plumeria, or Frangipani, plants all blossomed beautifully. This one had a spectacular array of colors, including white, pink, and yellow.
The ground cover is purple heart, with some mint in the mix.

HAPPY SUNDAY! According to eBird this is a Saffron Finch.
It’s the first and only one I’ve seen in my area of Central FL.
Possibly an escapee caged finch, since they are legal to own. Pretty cute I think.
