what have I been doing?

Well, not much in the way of updating this damn thing.  Nothing of facebook either (except what daily mile posts there for me).

We recently had a great visit from our best friends from our old stomping grounds and while I personally was holed up in the trailer almost the whole time (I’d just . . . → Read More: what have I been doing?

Mulecall!

We had some neighbors bring down “stuff” yesterday and it was Christmas in July!  While I was still at the funeral Jamie had ordered some bike stuff (that I was unable to have forwarded and bring down in time) and I was shocked to see that appear.  I had instructed the mail service to . . . → Read More: Mulecall!

colegio, secudaria, prepa, ugh.

So, the school I thought Ellen would absolutely ADORE (remember, SHE is driving this train, really, really, really WANTING to go to school) is apparently too “fun” looking and not “strict” enough.  She wants a school like Bart and Lisa’s on Los Simpson.  Ugh.  Ak Lu’um is a LOVELY Waldorf school and Sissy sounds . . . → Read More: colegio, secudaria, prepa, ugh.

Nos han contado y contando las tortugas

Mexico’s 2010 census workers came by last night and were very happy to accept cold coco water while we chatted.  They were surprised that we’re not enrolled in IMSS and told us to keep working on that tramite, that it was worth the hassle.  I’m not planning on using IMSS as our primary health . . . → Read More: Nos han contado y contando las tortugas

my kingdom for a Fry’s…

So for a few months I’ve been looking for a computer.  I need something more robust for work and dual processors look good and I’m tired of waiting (at times) minutes for my computer to catch up.  Right now I need 2 laptops to get my work done, but I think if I wiped . . . → Read More: my kingdom for a Fry’s…

it feels like a won the lottery

I swear, getting stuff done, accomplishing more than one tramite a day is enough to give you such a feeling of euphoria I can’t tell you.  I spent much of last week getting the FM3s for the family together.  Only took me 2 trips to INM to accomplish the opportunity for a review of . . . → Read More: it feels like a won the lottery

Xcaret and ER and now the balcony is offlimits

We tend to visit Xcaret yearly, even though the ticket price is some US $127 a head, because on the event of the reenactment of the Travesia Sagrada, the entrance fee is waived.  As long as you get to the gate before 7am.  You would think this wouldn’t be that much of a problem . . . → Read More: Xcaret and ER and now the balcony is offlimits

So, long story short, I tore my calf muscle.  AFREAKINGain.  Then I waited 2 weeks . . . → Read More: OMG it’s an UPDATE!!!

wasted days

Q. Where have I been? A. I have not been posting.

I hope this clears everything up.

When things aren’t going well, I tend to clam up.  Two Saturdays ago (or something like that, it was a Saturday anyway) I tore my soleus (calf muscle) (say it with me now…) A Freaking Gain.  Yes.  . . . → Read More: wasted days

lessons learned from Mayakoba

I had considered volunteering last year but never really got around to it.  Since this seems to be the year of “do something new”, when coupled with the possibility of helping the bomberos (firefighters) get 10 jaw of life apparatuses, I figured it was now or never.  We were assigned specific holes (the bomberos . . . → Read More: lessons learned from Mayakoba
