Pueblo

Today we went to a little pueblo (town) about 45 minutes away because there was an olive oil festival.

Pueblos fascinate me. It´s like you walk into one and step into a time machine of about 100 years ago.

Life seems so uncomplicated and happy. Internet is nowhere to be found, children are playing in the streets, and women are doing their washing outside. Everyone knows everyone and kids aren´t tainted with things like drugs, smoking......and all those other things out there that teens do these days. While we were there the men were giving the kids donkey rides through the town. What fun on a Sat. night! No movie theatre or video club, no skating rink, no tv, no ice cream shop, no fancy restaurant........just a donkey and a leash and the kids couldn´t have been happier.

44th




The USA is no longer my place of residence, nor has it been for the past four years. I never talk about politics, and I don´t plan to here...However, I did just watch the address online.




I wish Obama the best of luck these next four yrs. and I hope he takes good care of my lady while I´m away.




God Bless America.

Motto for life.

brrrr

I hear it´s a bit chilly in IN? Do you have goosebumps on your face?

Thank goodness I got back to Spain when I did. Have you seen barajas airport in Madrid? Complete and utter chaos. There are people that have been there for four days!!!!!!!!! Awesometown.

I wonder if getting prego is like getting a tattoo on your face? You´ve gotta be pretty sure, eh?

Doc

So, I´ve officially been to the doc about five times this past month. The abnormal EKG earlier was a result of a faulty machine. My heart is AOK. I´ve taken two rounds of antibiotics this past month and today she gave me another bottle of gooey syrup. Just can´t get rid of this mucus in my chest. Hopefully this will do the trick...that and straight up vodka.

Other than that, life is good. Getting back into the routine of work and wearing ear plugs when I sleep.


The atheists in Barcelona have paid for an add campaign and the local buses say ¨God does not exist.¨ To them I say: ¨Suck my balls.¨ That makes me feel so much better.

españa

I am indeed still alive although I feel like I¨m a walking zombie. On the way home I got the emergency exit seat I was robbed of on the way there. I did have a four hour layover in Madrid which made me very cranky and irritable. I might have smacked some people across the face but I can´t even remember because I was delirious and w out sleep.

Got home Tues..shower, dinner, and then to do 3 kings stuff with the family. Wed and Th morn I had docs appts. I´m BACK on antibiotics because I had a chest x ray and it looks like ghosts of boogers are flying around in there. It´s pretty awesome. Ialso had to have another EKG and I go back to the Doc next week. Enough w the doc already. I´m too young for this crap.

I had to teach Wed to Fri and I felt like I wanted to D.I.E. but I dídn´t...and here I sit.

Happy 2009 to all my blog readers. Hope she´s a jem.
