I'm Back!

Back from Virginia. Checked in at the Farm today. The dewberries are coming into season. I found some nice juicy tasty ones and ate them up right away.

It was cold and rainy in Virginia. But had a good time with AMA, RB, and OB. Took down some wall paper, did some gypsum patching, and painted the kithchen. Had lunch with OB at her school, went to the park and she road her bicycle. Went out to dinner at OB's favorite places, Sydoo's and Noodle something a few times.

Hope OB didn't pick up any bad habits and she doesn't get into too much trouble after hanging around with me.

On the plane I was able to read a book O had given me a while back. "Cuentos From My Childhood, Legends and Folktales of Northern New Mexico" by Paulette Atencio. I enjoyed the book. I liked the legend titled Marina La Malinche and really liked the tale titled La Morena Linda, which was my favorite.

Arrivederci, Jorge

Hey Jorge,

Nice to hear from you. O told me you're helping out su hermana. That's nice of you. She says you are the resident nanny/carpenter. LOL!!! It's nice that you have the time to do such things. When can I book you. I hear you homeschool the children also!!! LOL!!!

Glad to see you are still enjoying reading. I however, cannot follow one blessed word. Perhaps I should borrow some of O's meds to help me focus!!!

I think I have decided to buy an electronic drumset, even though I want a real set. However, my husband and children are giving me a hard time about the soundproofing of it. So I may go the easier route and buy electronic.Because it has headphones!! Unless when you here, maybe you can take a look and tell me what you think something like that would cost and how hard it is to do.

enjoy your travels see ya soon. O made me some fantastico low-salt Indian food and a gorgeous red lentil soup while the kids were at spanidh today. All of which she says is good for high blood pressure. Adios! LPK

When you go to Maryland, tell J that you read her book. She gave it to me.

L, I can do a lot, sometimes. I'ld go for the real set if you can. O's a terrific cook, glad she's thinking of you. Take Care, Jorge

Tweed-tweed, I forgot to tell J about the book but I left J a message. Take Care, Jorge

Dear Jorge,

Thanks for the word on the soundproof room, which I see I actually forgot to mention!! But that's what I meant. Not sure yet which way I will go. But thanks for the thought.

See ya up here soon.

O, K, me, and las tres chicas are off to Nueva York for the American Girl Doll Tour!!! (Oh Alec too!)I'm sure we'll have a blast!

I may blog from there.
Not sure where I'm heading with my blog, as everything still seems a little mundane, compared to last week!! I'll settle back in though!!

adios! LPK
