God, I hope it is a better year than 2024. I have to say, though, it didn’t quite start out that way. So, since the hospital visit last year, I continued to have colds and asthma issues for some time. It was very frustrating.

Christmas starts even earlier here than in the US. TheyContinue reading “Merry Christmas from Merida”
Mexico City – Part III – Día de Muertos
I know. I start things and don’t finish them. Well, here, for once, I am going to complete this series of posts, even though it is now one month later!!!
