What a Week!

Posted on October 30, 2007 - Filed Under Personal, Simple Life | 3 Comments

And it´s only two days in! I´m quite worn out, but the work just keeps pouring in. And you know that only lasts so long before there is nothing at all! So here´s what we did yesterday and today . . .
- Bought the floor tiles. All of them. 28 boxes of tiles! I´m very [...]

Milestones and Other Photos

Posted on October 27, 2007 - Filed Under Kids | 4 Comments

I just dumped all the photos off my camera today (yeah, I know, I should be working!) and thought I would post a few of them. Seems like a good way to go on a Sunday.
So, here is my littlest guy, finally able to sit up on his own for a bit.

I did [...]

Just What We Needed

Posted on October 27, 2007 - Filed Under Mom Stuff, Personal | 1 Comment

Irving has been sick for the past couple of days with something nasty. We thought it might be a kidney infection, but it looks like it´s viral. Why do I say that? Well, last night, I failed to wake up when Dante cried. I didn´t hear Dorian. And I didn´t feel when Irving got up [...]

Shoesies . . . Because I Want To

Posted on October 26, 2007 - Filed Under Kids | 3 Comments

Lately I´ve noticed Dorian doesn´t say “shoes”, but “shoesies”. I´m the only one who says the word in English, so he usually says “apatos” or Zapatos for shoes, who knows where the shoesies  came from, I´ve never used any baby form of the word!
Yesterday, he asked for his “shoesies” and as I was putting them [...]

I Might Be Absent for a Bit

With all the work I have this week, I´m thinking I might not be around much until Monday, so please bear with me! I´ve already missed Wordless Wednesday. But it´s good . . . I should be able to pay for the builder to install my new floor at the end of the month, it [...]

When It Rains, It Pours

Posted on October 23, 2007 - Filed Under Mom Stuff, Personal | 2 Comments

So, I´ve been applying for a HUGE number of writing jobs lately, in an attempt to find something that will pay me more than $3 an article and which will allow me to work on my blogs, without major stress about money. Until now, I hadn´t heard anything from anyone . . . then suddenly, [...]

A Weekend in Antigua

Posted on October 23, 2007 - Filed Under Fun | 8 Comments

I´ve been tagged by Are We There Yet, Mom? to do the A Weekend in Your City meme. It´s been fun, reading about everyone´s towns! Now, where I actually live, in San Juan del Obispo, there isn´t much more than a few dirt roads and a couple of stores, so I thought I´d take you [...]

Finally, A Sunny Day!

Posted on October 23, 2007 - Filed Under Personal | Leave a Comment

This morning, I woke up to bright blue sky outside my bedroom windows. Amazing! After about a week of nothing but grey cloudy, rainy days, a bit of sunshine is very welcome.
With all this rain, we´ve totally run out of clothes for the boys. I usually send my laundry out to a woman who does [...]

Figuring Things Out

Posted on October 22, 2007 - Filed Under Personal, Simple Life | Leave a Comment

Irving and I had a long talk last night about the safety of living here and the feasibility of moving to Canada. He says that he would hate to leave, but at the same time, his children are top priority and he´s willing to do what he needs to in order to ensure their safety. [...]
