the year is almost over and lots of stuff going on
the house is full of guests - even enrique fromthe coop is here since his house is being fixed up. in 6 months they intend to return ! he is over the being boss stuff. says he wants to return to diving for abalone :) and have his day be done at 10 a.m. CAN YOU BLAME HIM ??????
lots of people like the sheep idea. i have been getting emails back and forth and they are all good. question like how is the road ? can I take my pets ? is there hot water ?
marcelo and cindi had lunch with us today. it was really nice to see them. we caught up on al lthe news. this didnt seem like such a good year for them altho they got some mega traveling in - they went to argentina to see his dad and cousins in buenos aires.
it was a very warm day all day. not a breeze and ever so quiet.
i did get together a bunch of presents for the orphanage in la mision. one day i would like to visit it - the door of hope. i gave them some of the presents i bought for juliet and wendy. i think the orphans are way more important !!

well, well, well antonieta saw a mountain lion at the dump last week !!!! so we guess that this is why all of a sudden Rex decided he would not go running towards north with Les !!! mystery explained. poor Rex. Les forced him into the car and let him off north of us so he would get a good run in . how were we to know there is a loose mountain lion !!!
emails back and forth on kenny and his house. turns out there is a warrant for his arrest. andres stopped the police from carrying out the warrant. can you imagine ?????????????
i taught today and the classes went really well. new strategy has all the kids participating. up front. either they get it or they stay inthe front til they do. that should make some of them smarten up !!
sorry i didnt get to see derek and karla one last time. it was such a fast visit hahaha I had some moola to send to Mark thru them ..oh well ... it will have to wait ....
the citizens of la bocana have cash to spend on clean up crews. great that it came but sad that it came at the end of the year and sad that so little came thru. someone is pocketing the cash. one month is not enough to really make a difference.
tomorrow we go to santa rosalia.

Day after Thanksgiving
what a day yesterday !!! the food was so good and the desserts were outstanding !! so yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
so sorry that Drek and Karla did not come early and hang out with us ... but then again, we thought the boys would be fishing until late and not want lunch until late !! the oven at the copa works at a higher temp than ours here - which made the tueky a little dry. oh well !!
this sunday we will have a mega lunch for the boys and girls inthe bike club here at the house with the leftovers !! sounds like a very good plan to me !!
class today and i will prepare a little exam for them. good to keep them on their toes !!
it was so fun having the house full. i do wish time didnt fly so quickly. the best part is that each one gets to do their own thing. go over to domingo's house. visit joaquin. visit juanchys. hand out at the beach. read. take Rex for a walk. this year is very cold so walking on the beach was not fun. the wind is horribly cold. today is warm figures. the day everyone leaves.
i believe our mail got picked up. it is at el crucero waiting for us.
i talked to Rafa briefly yesterday. he didnt go to san diego and didnt celebrate thanksgiving since he perhas had a job today. he needs to get in gear and get a better job. life is passing this kid by. such a shame.
no chance to talk to marc. he did not call and today he did not anser when we tried. north korea attacking south korea is not part of the plan.
aziz and afsaneh are taking my xmas cards to be mailed. they also donated $400 to the cause betweent hem !! what angels. what amazing friends. I tell yiou all. the more you give, the more you get. all my life it has been this way.
miss my mom and am glad that she heads back to san diego Dec 10. :))))))))))))))))

brazil has a new female president - dilma rousseff. seems that she is of bulgarian descent and their whole country commemorted when she won. kinda fun to have that connection. ana told me that the current presdient, LULA, has cut poverty by 60%. the reason that brazil is one of the countries that is NOT going thru a recession is that we have, for the first time ever, a middle class. and this middle class has buying power. the good news is that rouseff says she will continue to fight until the last 40% of brazilians are not living below poverty. we need to get rid of illiteracy too.
i am watching the news and north and south korea are at war - Marc is there - this is scary. i so love my son so much. please Lord, take extra special care of him. north accuses south of attacking first. 1953 marked the end of the korean national war.china has asked both sides to remain calm. apparently they support the communist north. Barrack Obama says that he will support south korea. th is is being classified as the most serious incident since cease fire in 1953 without a peace agreement.
duncan came today and he got a bike !! i am sooooooooo happy. he has come and come and come over and over for the last couple months and i did not have a bike for him. they were either too big or too small or someone else was in line. today was his day. yahoooooooooo.
we have a full house and i love having these guests over - they all have their own routines and it seems to fit so comfortably into our routine. i am excited about thanksgiving. this year it will be a big affair as always but the cooking started today !!! applesauce is ready. cake tomorrow. pumpkin pie tomorrow. turkey and stuffing. veggies. mashed potatoes.cranberries.
we have agreed that the boys will not go fishing tomorrow and will visit campo rene. then on thursday they will go fishing and we will do a late lunch at 3 pm. sounds like a great plan. it wd be great if les went fishing with them !!
when i opened my emails this morning there were 3 messages from pompano. he wanted to go to chris's house and get the mail and meds !! he will do it since his car is ready. the motorhome is not but he left it. he will pick the stuff and drive down on thanksgiving. pack his bags and head for italy !! I am so luckt that he offerrd to do this, for one of us wd have had to go to san diego otherwise....no other way since les cannot be without his medication ....obrigada Deus !!

Nov 20 ,2010 Saturday
well, Les and Panch left this morning for Puerto Nuevo, for an over night trip. They meet up with the Thanksgiving gang - bet they are eating lobster right now and enjoying a beer along with it !!
Harry and Anne have not shown up - they are supposed to stay for 6 days ???? Strange and I am about to go upstairs ....
We did have a surprise - Jenny and Nick, Bill and Pam who popped on over for 2 days. I have put them in the Copa, since its next guest comes on Monday. Pam is a pilot. Gave Jenny some quilt pieces that I saved for her ... there were 2 people who did quilting - the ones in Punta Chivato have moved away so Jenny became the lucky winner.
Houston - we have a serious problem. Christine just put my mail out and never advised Derek,. I thought he had picked it up but guess what .... I am sure it is still sitting outside her house. Now I have to find someone else who is coming. crappola. I have a totally useless sister. she is so lazy and so unhelping. she will never go that extra step. never. how did two sisters grow up so decidedly opposite? hard to fathom, really.
Derek and Karla, her mom and her daughter are in town. They were all over at Joaquins having luch - that is the first time I have seen him making lunch unless it is a governor or other politician.
The Iraquis left for home in the end. Didnt want to stay another day. They caught 10 yellowtail though !! amazing !!

yahooo it is Friday
we just got 2 guests in and they are from Iraq !! very interesting. they have never been here before but one of them met an American in san diego who told them about punta abreojos and la bocana and they came ... they are gungho to go fishing, very sad cause we know there is NO fishing. domingo's son will be taking them. They were smart and made reservationf for 2 more days in guerrero negro, just in case they could not find anywhere to stay here in bocana.
english classes went well today. the third level is really into it and they are so good and learning fast. very rewarding as a teacher. their books are jokes . there is not one page that does not have gross horrendous terrible mistakes on it.
derek and karla and her mom should be pulling into la bocana tonight - or maybe Derek will stay in san quintin ??? frank and ernesto and aziz should also be on the road tonight. they will probably meet up at jardines !!

it is almost Friday and most of the worls is very happy tonight because of this !!
went to see Julio today and he always tells me so many stories. today he told me that his whole family of over 500 people showed up when his grandmother died. he sais a whole truck of flowers came from ensenada to honor her years ago when she passed. he says that Mexicans believe that when they visit the cemetary on nov 2, it is because they think the spirits come to visit them. and itis dishonorable not to visit the relatives when they come.
he is thinking of doing a liposuction his sister is too.
finally got the biosphere bracelets handled. frank and ernesto and azis will purchase them at the restaurant. thank you Rebecca for taking care of this !!
the kids will all have bikes by next Monday. I cant wait til I can breathe a sigh of relief. I have officially started campaigning for skateboards now !!! This is going to be way cool.
Deise called on skype today and they are coming at the end of December. I wrote to wendy to see if she can help aaron get a job. he is a teacher and has been unemployed for a year. that is just absurd. how can one live like that ? what about self esteem ? what about bills ????

this morning I did laundry since we assumed the water guy would come. tow loads and he did come yahooo !! both houses got water. we are good to go.
Pancho's brother died in ensenada and they brought the body here at midnight night before last and buried him yesterday. pancho said he was up all night and they reminisced about the brother.
a story: when they were young, they were quite poor and the 3 eldest had to sleep together. there was only one blanket and the 2 on the ends would wrap it around them selves and the one who died would be stuck in the middle with the blanket high ... leaving him cold.
a story: the brother had a wife who had a sister who had a baby at ayong age. so she gave the baby to the brother and his wife. they bring up the baby and she calls them abuela and abuelo. she is 5 years old and she told pancho: I am leaving abuelito here for you to take care of him. Ok, he told her !!
Pancho brought by Marcos to meet me yesterday - he is the owner of Puerto Nuevo cabanas. sasys pancho that he was born in san ignacio and has been a hard hard worker all his life. (in spite of the reputation that people from san ignacio have). he was a good fisherman and lobsterman and now runs his business and does well. he is panchos dead wife's brother. pancho told me he met his wife at a fiesta in san ignacio. and then she came to work as a nurse here in bocana.
kids stopped by all day long and bikes in and bikes out. we are down to the wire here ... almost every kid is handled. tunguis brother and sister joined the club, they are very poor and I am happy to support them. they are the hooligans of town and hopefully we can recuperate them a little.
Duncan does not have a bike yet. poor thing. every time he comes they are too big or broken or too small. please, Lord, one of these new ones has to be for cutie pie Duncan. Right fit. He is such a good soul. Just like his mom. I really like Renata.
I watered the garden today and there are a couple plants that could use some TLC. tomorrow this must be done. they are not happy. all the plants at the Copa are doing great. I am so happy. I bought 2 more plants today. It is great cause the guy knows me by name and always comes to me first hahaha !!
the punta chivato group made 3800 dollars !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! holy smokes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and everything was cheap except the TVs and they all went for 250 pesos and there were about 7 of them !!! other than that, everything else was 10 or 20 pesos max. pretty cool.
