Had a great day visiting with friends, eating to much food... this MUST stop. I swear they feed me every 20 minutes... Mexican food is NOT lo cal!!!
Blogging may become my new pass time along with kicking butt on CafeWorld on Face book...
THis is my current view.... any ideas for creating an art piece would be most welcome... I am considering ribbons... Lots of ribbons and sewing bright shinny balls, toys, or Milagros on the ends... or maybe I can fill it with pine branches... don't use it this time of year... but that might upset the dust bunnies living up there...
I got a small ficus tree decorated for Christmas. IT is out in the open little courtyard next to my bed... Well I had help with the decorating... I got to watch... I do miss the smell of pine but maybe some one can find me some branches to use. I can have the ladies lay them in the fountain ... which fills the night air with the sounds of running water.
My windows are wide open and the cool air is blowing over the bed. Will make for a great night of sleep. And in the morning the windows go shut and I get to turn on the room fireplace for a while. The cats love it... Might even start a photo essay of learning to live in a bed..next to a potty chair... BUT MY potty chair is nicely covered... I am using a beautiful throw from Costa Rica. ( eat your heart out Martha)
Spent time on spanish... have to ... it is the only way I have to talk to my 'staff'
(I consider them my new best friends!!!) So will be taking this time to FINALLY learn how to say things correctly and not just grunt and point. THO I am fluent in grunt and point. I learned it in Germany! Since this is my home I think learning the lingo is a wise thing. MOst the words I have learned lately were taught to me in the hospital by my nurses... tho I was warned not to use them in mixed company.. since there are no men in San Miguel...this will not present a problem. Most were about cursing in spanish about pain and stupid doctors...
Now I find I need words for ' Can you find____
' I just dropped my_________________
' My soup is falling in my hair____
Okay go lay flat in your bed and eat a bowl of chicken soup....
I have baby wipes EVERYWHERE....
For a really big day tomorrow I am going to see if we can wash my hair... remember I can not sit up.... thinking of hanging my head over the side of the bed...suggestions are welcome...
OH and one great benefit to my life in a back brace... wow do you get cleavage... not sure where it is coming from ...but .... oh forgot to mention it does push it out the other way.... not so pretty but then that is under the covers...
Real mean back brace arrives on Tuesday or Wed... with a fitter to make sure it is tight enough... oh boy...
AH it is mid night and my neighbors are moving their furniture... does not matter... I am not sleeping...
I am starting to study the book the Secret... has any one done that?
Not sure why I am writing this post because I am thinking I will be the only one to read it...
But it is something to do...
Well when my time permits I will write again... my social life is just packed right now...
