Saturday Sept 4th to Saturday Sept 11th, 2010

I picked up Babygirl and Bagel at 7 and they were so cute, both zoned out of their minds! All night I had at least one on me snoozing away, they would get down, walk a couple of steps, fall down, and snooze there for a bit, then get up again. By the time we went to bed they were getting better, but still funny to watch!
Saturday we got up early to attend the Amigos de Bucerias breakfast meeting; it doesn’t seem so bad to wake up early if there is food involved! And of course the food was excellent as per usual.

After getting home I think Ross had a snooze while I did some computer stuff, then we get a phone call from Mike letting us know that we are the only ones that are going to be there and if we have anyone we know that wants to come to call them. We called John and Christie and they came with both Shay and Mackenzie, and Deb was there too. Volleyball was great, so were Ross’s wings and our kabobs were a hit.

Sunday we met up with Nick, Shelly, Mike and Mandy at the Oxxo by our place to convoy down to a club called Que Pasa (sp?). Nick and Mike along with Carlos had a gig there and we thought it would be cool to tag along. We had a great dinner for 50 pesos; we had stuffed chicken with mini potatoes and carrots, yum. The band was great and we ended up staying until the end, Ross got to play a bit too.

Monday and Tuesday were toast, I was sick in bed both days. I had a sore throat and just felt crappy (I’m much better now). We got our 2 screen doors put in on Tuesday, I feel so much better now, they both lock (dead bolt) so we can keep the screen door closed only, to keep the air flow in the house.

We didn’t do too much on Wednesday, on Thursday we had Francisco (our handyman) come, we are going to have him paint our other two white doors black to match the rest and fix the holes in our cement house where the door guys wrecked.

Friday we got the money wired into our Mexican account and we have paid Juan for our new truck. We drove to PV today to get a few things, the wait wasn’t too long to cross the bridge so we made good time. We went to Costco for some more Montreal steak spice and a new set of sheets (which we didn’t get as they only had brown and they were over 1,000 pesos), Auto Zone for some fuel stabilizer for our gas cans (gas for our scooters and the genset), We also stopped at Sam’s Club for sheets but the only ones they had were 200 thread count, so it looks like I’ll only have 1 set for a while. We went to home depot for some paint for our doors, the rest of the stuff we will need to spruce up the house Francisco will have to get.

We drove back home with our purchases, then off to Paradise Plaza for Ross’s meeting and a starbucks for me, then into PV one more time to meet up with friends to have supper at the Sirloin Stockade, another yum! We are kinda worried about Bagel; we think he got stung by something, scorpion maybe? We was really lethargic (and that is not Bagel) and when I picked him up he cried. We cuddled for a bit in the rocking chair, then he jumped down to go outside.

It is now Saturday morning, the air conditioner guys are here to put up our new old air conditioner and we are waiting for Francisco to come to do his bit. We are going out with the dinner club tonight to a new restaurant in La Cruz, it is supposed to be cheap and good!

I think Bagel is better; he is walking around now and is more playful, hurray!

Well that’s it for now; hope everyone has a great weekend. I will try to keep more up to date, sometimes the time just slips away!
