Busy, Busy, Busy

This past weekend I was in Costa Rica. I have written up a blog for my trip, but the internet is not working at the house. I´m writting this from an internet cafe. I will post about my trip when get internet at home.

Alysia is doing fine and so am I. I have to check my email so I will say goodbye. TTYL. Take care and may God bless you all.

It's so hot here

I know some of you will say that's good, but I can't tolerate the heat. I have to keep taking showers to cool down. Alysia is now taking her shower with the cold water. The water is actually warm, but it was still to cold for Alysia the first time. She is now used to the water and I don't have to heat up her water. She has been having fun playing and fighting with two of my cousins. My aunt Santa and her hubby Walter have been inviting the whole household (10 with them included) out for supper. This past few day I have been to 3 big malls here and enjoyed some good food. Nicaragua is a lot better than it was the last time I was here. I truly hope the new goverment keeps its promises and makes the country better.

Jeff is also doing well in Texas. He and I talk every night. Alysia really misses him. To make up for the lack of daddy, she latches on to my aunt's husband. My aunt has 2 little girls who are younger than Alysia. So you can imagine the noise and fighting with 3 kids under 4.

Today I went with my Aunt Lola to get a visa for her to travel to Costa Rica for a few days (this will actually help for her application to get a visitors visa to Canada).

Alysia has been enjoying the fact that she does not need to sit in a carseat. She and my cousins love to sit in the back of the car (sits 10) and the love it when we go over big bumps.

Take care everyone and may God bless each one of you.

I AM FINALLY HERE

After a long day of flights, Alysia and I arrived safe and sound to Managua, Nicaragua. Alysia was very happy to get here and was actually in a good mood and was hugging everyone. Today she is again in front of the tv. At least it's in spanish and she is learning.

I now get to spend a month just being a stay at home mom but in Nicaragua (away from the cold).

I don't have much to say, since I have not really done much. Just happy to be here. Take care everyone and may God bless each one of you.

I'm in Toronto

We arrived safely to Toronto yesterday morning. I am seriously considering drugging Alysia for my flight from Toronto to El Salvador (5 hours). But otherwise everything was great.

We visited with our friends Des and Laura for lunch yesterday. In the evening we went to my aunt's home. Jeff, Alysia and I were so tired we went to bed at 8:30 Toronto time.

This morning we worshiped with our friends at Kingsview Village Church. We then came to the home of Dee for lunch. We had really good roti. I will be leaving here in a few minutes to go visit Alison (Jeff's cousin) and her family.

Alysia will be sleeping over at Elena's place (my sister). Jeff leaves tomorrow. But Alysia and I will be staying over at Sharmilla's after he leaves (only for a day).

I can't believe we are here, and soon we will be leaving for Nicaragua.

Take care and may God bless each one of you.

3 more days

And I still have not started packing. My goal is to start packing today :). Time is going by very quickly now that my travel date is getting closer. Before I know it Friday will be here.

Alysia and I both got our hair cut yesterday. It still looks the same, it was more of a trim. Alysia is also getting very excited about traveling. She likes to fly in the Avion (plane).

The dinner theatre was great as always (the food not so good). I will say that I liked the last one I went to more. I found I enjoyed the other story better. Alysia had a great time with her babysitter.

I really have nothing else to say, and should get packing, so I will say TTYL and may God bless each one of you.

9 days left

It's amazing how fast time is flying as my travel date gets closer. We have been trying to make sure that we have all the things we need for when we travel. Like malaria pill (very bitter pills). Personal Water purification system (water bottles) and many more things.

I am being kept busy this week delivering books and products to my Avon customer. But it's good to be busy, makes the time go by faster.
I'm finally going to the Dinner Theatre. We are going tomorrow. There will be a group of 6 of us from the church.

Take care everyone and May God bless you.
