Former MIL Update
It turns out my former MIL fell while taking a 5” step up onto the exterior concrete pad outside the garage door when coming in from the back garden. I gently suggested she could have the house assessed for fall hazards. She said an assessment had been done when her husband was ailing. Evidently none […]
PV 8
Our last day in PV was relaxed. We were able to stay at the condo until 2PM. The kids joined us at 1PM. We took a small cab with impressive capacity to the airport, where the four of us checked into three flights. After navigating security we parked ourselves in Bubba Gumps Shrimp House for […]
PV 7
We did very little today, our last full day in PV. Much relaxing was accomplished around the pool, and my husband bought himself new swim shorts, though he refused to buy any that had pink flamingos on them. Very disappointing ;->. We’re going to have dinner at the cantina with the kids in just a […]
PV 5 & 6
Yesterday we went to the village of Yelapa, at Tim’s recommendation (instruction!). When he used to frequent PV, and meander to Yelapa, the village was run on generators, had only 2 years of formal education available, boasted a population of 200, and had no road leading into the village. Today there is electricity, has K-12 […]
PV 4
We took in the botanical gardens today. They are an hour’s cab ride away, sport an amazing restaurant, and over 60 acres, laced with paths and bordered by a river, that we cooled our hard-working feet in. The foliage (birds and butterflies) was amazing, and has me thinking about where to insert a tropical style […]
PV 2 & 3
Yesterday’s goals were exceeded in that I picked up a sun burn walking back from the grocery! My daughter and I sent her boy friend and my husband back to the condos in a taxi, and we strolled. She, being fair to the point of translucent, is a sunscreen disciple. I, being darker complected, and […]
PV Day One
We arrived an hour late due to flight delays. After an uneventful trip to our condo, we decompressed for an hour, walked the property, and strolled to a lovely dinner. Tomorrow’s plans are simple: Groceries, pool, ocean.
Pre-Flight Thoughts
As we count down the hours until we board our flight, both my husband and I are marveling how much more relaxed we are than the last time we went to Mexico. As the weekend has productively meandered by, we’ve come up with a few ideas: Last time we went, we preceeded the trip with […]
Mom Called…
And I bravely picked up the phone. She wanted: To tell me she’s decided to have the upper right tooth extracted. Ask, again, when the next dental appointment is. Tell me that this is the first dental work she’s needed in decades and decades. And that she’s only needed cleanings meanwhile, and Ask me what […]
Dentist
On the way to the dentist this morning mom told me about gum tenderness and bleeding she was experiencing on her upper left, and that a filling had fallen out of her upper right back tooth. She assured me neither were infected. This dentist has a slick check-in procedure where you check the patient information […]
