So much ME time

1 28 11  One of my biggest pleasures in Mexico is the amount of me time I have.  At home  I feel obligated to be doing something productive  and there is always something that needs my attention.  Here life is simple, no garden to tend and the most housekeeping I do is make the bed and a few dishes each day and the maid comes weekly do change out the linens and clean.  We eat one maybe two meals in most days and and one out some times more sometimes less.  It’s our big decision of the day.  Yesterday afternoon we spent our time with our neighbors at a beach side restaurant drinking beer &

mojito’s for me and visiting and shopping from the wandering vendors when we wanted to.  Very laid back afternoon.  Watched a DVD movie later that night.  I’ve managed to read 4 books on my kindle and will start a new one this morning.  At home I find very little time to read. I walk around town when I fell, do some shopping for gifts or groceries, have just enough language skills to as the necessary questions, I still have a little trouble with the money, I’ve mastered the paper money, but not so good with the coins.  The shop keepers don’t keep much change on hand and prefer exact change or close to it.

In just about an hour we are to set off for our “outback adventure” with an american guide/naturalist who is married to a Mexican lady and has lived here about 10 years.  I’m hoping to get some great pictures.  Signing off KO

I'm a traveler, not as frequently as I would like , but I plan on doing more. After working full time at Mount Rainier National Park during the summer of 22 I have decided to retire completely and forever. Prior to that I was semi retired as a Wedding Officiant I officiated at about 20 weddings a season, and with my small delivery service I handled the distribution of a local high-quality Home and Garden magazine . Prior to my "semi retirement" I was in corrections and before that I owned and operated a bail bond agency. I now plan to travel to new places and exciting places, getting ready to do that as a solo as the Senior is no longer with me, his choice, and I am OK with that. For hobbies I'm a reader and love my kindle. And I enjoy writing. View all posts by zihuathyme
