Tuesday October 13th & Wednesday October 14th, 2009

Wow it is hard waking up early (8am) when you are used to sleeping in. I still feel like crap, sore throat and all but I woke up in Mexico today so all is good. I’m still thinking about the turtles we saw last night on the beach, what an amazing sight it was. Oh well, I digress! I have a weather program on my computer and I have on my task bar the weather for Edmonton, Greenville and here in Bucerias. Edmonton is -5, Greenville is -1 and it says here it is 24 does anyone want to ask me why we moved here????? I am sitting here on my outside patio drinking my coffee and looking at a blue sky with only streaks of clouds. Tigger is having his daily bath and everything is good. I went over to Sue and Harold’s house to meet and chat with a girl by the name of Molly and another girl and 2 guys that are looking after the animal adoptions (spay & neuter clinics also) wanting to bring up to date on what is going on and what will be our course of action this year. We all agreed that education is monumental and they have colouring books that they drop off at the primary schools along with someone to talk to them in regards to looking after their pets and making sure they don’t have babies. The colouring books and I believe more information is at the booth when we do the adoptions. I think we are going to have adoptions once a month at the Mega and we will make sure the owners of the animals stay with the animals until either they get adopted or they take them home with them. Apparently the people were leaving the animals at the adoption tent and not picking them up which means Carol the girl in charge ended up with a whole bunch of animals in her back yard.

Since neither one of us are feeling good we didn’t do much yesterday, I stayed at home and slept and Ross went to fix the Elements sign (It was off one of its hinges) and then paid the phone bill, wow, excitement or what. We stayed in and made spaghetti for supper last night and I went to bed early and Ross went to Britannia only because he told Ralph he was going so Ralph went because Ross said he would go……….So Ross went.

I had a fitful sleep last night, coughing and tossing and turning. Shay called at 10:30 this morning letting us know that Lily wasn’t going to clean our house today because of a school thing her daughter was in so she is coming tomorrow instead, which was good because I really didn’t want to get up. I think we crawled out of bed around noon and drank our coffee outside on our patio looking up at our blue sky with a few fluffy clouds. The temp is reading 35 and the humidity is around 60% not bad.

Tara, Ross’s daughter is coming to visit next Wednesday and will be staying a week with us. It will be good to see her. I think we will be visiting the beach a little more while she is here!

We have finally booked the hotel for Pamela’s wedding wow it costs a lot of money at a 5 star resort! Between the airfare and hotel it is costing us up to 3,000, and I haven’t even bought a mother of the bride dress yet. I think I will go and get my nails done on Tuesday next week then stop into Liverpool to see what they have. I saw one there about a month ago but couldn’t try it on so I hope it will be there next week or of course another one just as good or better.

I floated in the pool for about half an hour then Ross came in and decided to clean up the bottom of the pool, which means there were floaty things everywhere. Yuck! I got out, took a shower now we are contemplating on whether or not we will go to Costco or not, it’s already 3:30pm so I don’t know if we are going to go or not. Well I think that’s it for now.

See you soon
Still two sickies in Paradise
