Ok, so I admit, my idea of blogging constantly has turned into me writing constantly at home and never getting it up on to this site. Oh! And then there's the issue of photos. I have a ton and can't seem to figure out where to put them for all to see. I could go the Facebook route, but that would leave out all the grownups over 40. I'm working on that. Hold your breath!
Jody left on Thursday and I have to admit it was an exciting mix of terror and adrenalin that rushed through me as I headed back up the Mex 1 toward my new home. It's all different when you're alone. I have met two new friends. And get this -- one is Mexican. Who knew it'd be so hard to meet Mexicans in Mexico. White people are everywhere down here - particularly Candidans, Italians and Americans from Washington and California. I have spent most of my time since Jody left getting the old place clean and my bags packed to move.
Yesterday I made the big move into my 'new' rental house that will be home until the end of June. It's much more along the lines of what I had pictured than my first place. It's smaller and in the heart of a neighborhood. People walk by outside the fence; dogs bark; Mexican radio blares.....did I mention dogs bark? Dogs bark that syphillus crazy Mexican hungry dog bark all night long. And when they stop, the roosters begin. With the start of daylight savings in Mex (we are now an hour later than California), the Roosters must be confused....they got vocal last night at 3am. We'll see how tonight goes. I'm hoping the dogs get to bed earlier. Speaking of dogs, there's one dog who was sleeping far too soundly to bark. Guess who. Pictured here - photo courtesy of his aunt Jody, who he misses greatly. As do I! More to come. And pictures too!
