Coffee in town. Waited to meet the girl who was supposed to get me a replacement ticket for the fine that I was slapped with. She didn’t come in, but I decided on breakfast while waiting for the bus. Antonio was so very attentive and later in the evening when I crossed him, he greeted […]
Going back to work to familiar faces. No one got fired on my watch. Phew! Same old, same old, somehow it feels like an old, worn sock. Don’t think it’ll last long. Played Scheherezada after a long, long break 🙂
The new green leaves on the acer platinum. Hurrah… she’s recuperating! Reviewed the images I took on vacation. While still too many, I see many nuggets of gold in there. Spicy wings. Oh how I missed it.
Vacations require us to wake up early and drive around. Now that the 2 week long road trip is over, I could sleep until I felt like waking up. Felt good. A long, luxurious shower to get rid of the grime of the road. Sitting in the garden or on the sofa and not having […]
Last day at work before vacations… whoo hoo! Finished every task, including the ticket that has been opened for the longest ever time with us 😛 Win! Drinks with colleagues. Been a long time since I bonded with these guys, but vacations and thirst make for strange bed partners. Challenge: Alcohol y Vista Stop watering […]
Probably the only thing that made me smile today. The gorgeous yucca flowers that bloomed for the first time in our garden.
Reflections of the yellow bars in the bus making it look like all cars are yellow. Counting down to vacation. Plans are finally underway.

Listening to the voice of sanity in this insane world – Noam Chomsky talking about threats to the world. A colleague brought me a box of toffee. Not the same box that was shared with the rest of the peeps. Yeahhhhhh!!!! A cloudy, windy summer evening that made me don a blanket… hee hee!
Spent the morning cleaning up after the party. Felt so good to see stains fading and then disappearing to nothing 🙂 The maid will be surprised 😀 We made too much Sangria and today we had to finish it, well most of it. After cleaning, we just sat in the garden downing watered down glass […]
