The thing about a massive floating Vegas-style hotel, aka The Ovation of the Seas, is the sheer amount of people traveling alongside you. And with that many people, the odds of encountering my favorite type of tourist (The Spatially Unaware cluster of families) increases exponentially. And sure enough, on my morning walking loop, I may…… Continue reading Day 3: Juneau. “That whale is broken”
Let’s try that again…
The day started off pretty relaxing until my realtor texted me that escrow was missing a document package I mailed LAST Friday within San Diego county! I guess since I mailed it from another country (aka North County San Diego), maybe I didn’t have enough postage applied for international post. Very distracted and trying to…… Continue reading Let’s try that again…
Seattle and it’s ‘heatwave’
All morning on the news, we kept hearing about the heatwave happening in Seattle and how people are having to stay cool. So googling the weather, I find it’s only 88 degrees MAX and they are struggling – clearly they have never spent time in Riverside where it gets over 100 during the summer. Guess…… Continue reading Seattle and it’s ‘heatwave’
“I need to edibilize myself”
Wow, it’s only been about 2 months since I last blogged, sick as all hell, from Mexico. Lots has been going on for me and I find myself in 3 escrows while on vacation to catch a cruise ship to Alaska! I don’t recommend it, at all. The multiple escrow part. I’ll let you know…… Continue reading “I need to edibilize myself”
I got swindled! But, I still love Mexico:)
Today is Memorial Day back in the States, and since I work for a US-based company, I have the day off. Mom has been dying to show me Playa Chilleno ever since her and Dad ‘discovered’ it last October. Last October was the first time we had a car down in Cabo but I didn’t…… Continue reading I got swindled! But, I still love Mexico:)
A roadtrip within Mexico
Since we still have the rental car and a needed a change of scenery, I booked an Airbnb for one night in Los Barriles (literally translates to The Barrels). Mom was a little hesitant to go, afraid she might not feel up to it, but I assured her all she had to do was survive…… Continue reading A roadtrip within Mexico
Put your beer-drinking clothes on…we’re going out!
Having slept a full night without feeling like I had a throat full of glass, today was the first day I woke up without a sore throat. And I finally figured out where my hives were coming from – it’s not alcohol! It’s from heat intolerance. Being a scientist (by education), I decided to perform…… Continue reading Put your beer-drinking clothes on…we’re going out!
Covid got us jodidas
I learned a new word the other day. My Tía stopped by and asked how we were doing. Mom told her she was “all jodida.” Having never heard this word before I asked what it meant. A lady doesn’t usually talk like that but loosely translated, it means “f%#ked up.” And yep, Covid continues to…… Continue reading Covid got us jodidas
Watch out Cabo – Amy is manajando!
Finally feeling >90%, the morning walks along the water and the nightly meditations on the beach are helping nurse me back to health. Yesterday, we planned to finally get out of Catalina’s Condo and head out for dinner after I finished work for the day. Mom still wasn’t feeling great, so instead, I ordered Domino’s…… Continue reading Watch out Cabo – Amy is manajando!
“¡Lárgate!”
Welp, the parental units are now battling Covid as well. And since my HIPAA rights were violated for well wishes, I’m asking for healing vibes from you dear Reader that both make a full recovery in whatever time their bodies need to heal. Both parents are boosted x 2 (4 doses total) & no sign…… Continue reading “¡Lárgate!”
There She Goes...
