What a cluster! Never, ever, EVER trust UPS when they tell you “no problem.” Boy, did I learn that the hard way! So, when last I wrote, we were waiting for UPS to arrive between 2 and 5 p.m. on Thursday to pick up all of our worldly possessions. I worked so hard to getContinue reading “UGH!”

I hate moving…
Ugh. Moving is a drag. Moving to another country is even more challenging. To date we have packed a few boxes, watched our living room, dining room and patio furniture leave without us, and have made travel arrangements for us and our pets. Still no place to live in Queretaro, although I’m confident something willContinue reading “I hate moving…”
Yelapa
Lyn and I finally took some time to go do something. It was a beautiful Sunday. The weather was perfect. So we went to Yelapa. Yelapa is a a small beach town south of Puerto Vallarta.

The good news? We now have three teaching practices behind us and only seven more to go! Unfortunately, this weekend is not goingContinue reading “Another Friday! Three Down…”
It’s Friday!
Sea turtles, crocodiles and more!
Sunday: Day 2
Mexico is a Catholic country. Not surprisingly, therefore, many places are closed on Sunday. Today we learned that people who don’t work on Sundays include our 24-hour security guards. Fortunately for us, I was able to use my foot to dislodge the rod holding the gate down and open it. Otherwise we and our groceriesContinue reading “Sunday: Day 2”
Changes are coming.
December was the most interesting month of 2017. While I have dreamed of living in Mexico where the sun warms the beaches and the pace is slower, I never dreamed that Lyn would actually commit to moving there. Even more surprising was his willingness to quit his job and move as early as this January.Continue reading “Changes are coming.”
