August 8, 2010

it is Sunday ... and today I got up at 11 a.m. !!  I was just so tired and maybe it was the relief of being home and having taken care of everything in los angeles for mom, seeing dalton, seeing Rafa.  and yesterday I prepared dinner then made a cake then made some special jello for the bike club's visit today ..

just got a call from Mario at the coop and they want a room for tomorrow with two beds. yahoooooo

it is the surf tounament in bahia asuncion and i would have loved to be there for it. and i would have loved for them to have the boards. all of them.  it was not meant to be.

the meeting today was badly attended by the bike club and we have so much to handle - we have 2 weeks and are completely cash depleted - need money for gas and registration for the next meet in 2 weeks.  i will do a garage sale and i will do a cake sale and the boys will do car washes and hopefully a grilled chicken sale next saturday.

tomorrow i must visit the delegado to ask for the mini van for the 28th. it would be great to get it !!  i must make sure they have insurance.  that is a must.

the wind is picking up and the chairs on the fornt porch are flying - for sure Rex is afar away ... he is afraid of the noises - such a scaredy cat !!]
Juanchy stopped by today and he lloks great.  Julio stopped by today with natural stone necklaces for sale and i bought one for mom for christmas. 

we are low, very low on water. we are also lucky cause the family of 5 that was here did not even shower altho they were wet from the beach. so nice of them,. i bet someone told them that we have little water since our water plant is down (what else is new)

in order to remind of how life is here - the electricity was off all morning !! ahahaha !!  but that is good, i am very happy to be home, it is easy to get complacent and not realize what a paradise we have here :)
