You will never guess what happened last night. I was on my way to bed because I needed to get up early today to drive Pamela and Derek golfing at Vista Golf course, when my cell phone rang. It was Christie telling me that they have found a new born kitten on the side of the road and as they can’t keep it (allergies) she asked me if I could care for it. As there was no one to care for it I said “sure”. So about a ½ hour later Christie and Mackenzie come by with this little, little, little black kitty with his umbilical cord still attached! They had a bottle and some formula for him/her (here we again, Bagel is still a him/her, but I think she is a she) and I said thanks and they left after some wondering how it got there in the first place. Now, I have never before looked after a new born anything (except for my kids of course) so this will be a journey I have never travelled before. Ross has decided to name it Peanut and I like Sweet Pea. I’m doing a poll on Facebook on which we should use.

Peanut/Sweet Pea woke up at 1:30am for a feeding then again at 7:30 (just before my alarm went off). I got him/her fed, found out we have water, hurray, took a short shower and was out of the house by 8 to pick up Pamela and Derek at 8:15 to get them to the golf course by 9. We made a short stop at Wal-Mart to pick up some balls and a cheap glove for Pamela, and guess what, no balls and there were only 2 gloves for 350 pesos! Outrageous, so they got everything at the course. I had a map of where we were going, and our good friend Sue phoned with more direct directions. I am so surprised that I did not get lost, the directions were perfect, but I’m known to get lost in my bathroom. What a great day for golfing, warm but cloudy.

I drove home after dropping them off and did household chores, laundry, dishes and stuff. Little one was fussy and I fed him/her off and on until we had to leave to pick up the kids so I brought him/her just in case we decided to go somewhere or whatever. We ended up driving right back to the house, Pamela and Derek stayed for a bit then took the car back to the resort so they could clean up, eat and maybe do some sightseeing on their own.

Ross is fixing his speaker; I am just finishing up my laundry and of course writing my blog, little one is still sleeping and we are now out of water again!

Tomorrow we go to Yelapa & Majahuitas for the day with Pamela and Derek, Christie and John (well the girls) will be babysitting little one for us for the day. I hope everyone had a good day.
