Livin' la Vida Floja: Gastos!

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2012/08/gastos.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. August 17, 2012. Expenditures, gastos. I am setting what feels like a record, which it is not. But coming back after a month in the US, during which I shopped for things for the apartments and for my modest wardrobe, it stings! Sothat written, I'm off to the ATM near City Hall and the license office for her tag. Less than $4US, thank God for small favors! BREATH DEEP NOW AGAIN- FEEL BETTER? LOOSE THE SOUR PUSS ATTITUDE JUST SAYING! August 17, 2012 at 3:04 PM.

Livin' la Vida Floja: June 2011

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. June 29, 2011. If you're vacationing on Isla Mujeres, may I suggest your save Friday for yucca pie at Qubano Restaurant. Vivian Reynaldo was born in Cuba and raised in New York City and later lived in Miami, where she was an interior decorator. In the Caribbean, almost every country has it's own yucca root recipes. The Mayas used to use it like potatoes before potatoes were revealed to them. Vivian's is a real Cuban deal! But what a treat! It's served with s...

Livin' la Vida Floja: Rotting little kids

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2012/08/rotting-little-kids.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. August 1, 2012. As long as I have started a tangent, I'll add the behavior of kids and their parents. I am in a remote outpost of the world, but I read. I would never feed a toddler candy and be cautious with older kids. On my way to Ohio, a woman was feeding her two toddlers Skittles and while visibly pregnant, wolfing then down herself. Wow, youre a real cheery spokesperson for Life In Mexico. Cant wait to find another place to go. August 3, 2012 at 2:21 PM.

Livin' la Vida Floja: November 2011

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. November 7, 2011. The order of things. This photo was the last one of the day that I sent to my brother yesterday. The kitchen remodeling project was in full swing in Mexico, here on Isla Mujeres. He wryly observed, "I would call these photos concrete examples of progress." The kitchen remodeling is a job of concrete. Before the counter and its hole for the sink were framed and poured yesterday, there was nothing, except the vestiges of the old sink. Subscri...

Livin' la Vida Floja: February 2012

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. February 27, 2012. Howl like the wind. The Sunday Doggie Brunch gathered at Judy's house yesterday with all dogs present. It had been a while because Ticker was undergoing heart worm treatment. So no rough housing for a couple weeks. So, there we were, pig liver from the conchinita pibil mushed and doled out in three dog food dishes and the topping to their breakfasts. And with that, Judy let out a long, really long, low howl. And Ticker joined her soon.

Livin' la Vida Floja: August 2011

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. August 19, 2011. Mommie's got writer's block and I have a new bed in the closet. I was in and out of my old bed, on the floor, all night. Now I think I'm used to something that doesn't have the faint smell of things I've rolled in. Mommie calls it olor putreficado. I call it cologne. Well, it had a tag that attracted my attention. Mommie is going to re-stuff her and I'll get to try again, to use her as my pillow. Imagine. Mommie asked me to write this becaus...

Livin' la Vida Floja: April 2012

http://islazina.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html

Livin' la Vida Floja. A lazy life near Cancun. April 30, 2012. Migracion for that visa. There I am Friday, getting fingerprinted by Migracion in Cancun. Finally! Because I was 2 days late applying for my visa renweal, it inexplicably took 5 months to get the visa! Maurico Mendoza, my lawyer, is picking up today (no telling why they couldn't give it to me then and there) and I will go to his house tomorrow afternoon and pay him for his service. April 23, 2012. On to something big via the dogs? All the cas...

THE SAN MIGUEL NEWS: February 2012

Two Michigan gringos eat, meet, explore, learn and discover why they love Mexico. Wednesday, February 8, 2012. A Vacation at the Beach. No, this blog is not about our vacation at the beach, but rather about a short story written by a friend, Carol Merchasin, about how to choose a place for a beach vacation. It is very amusing. Carol is a retired attorney who has only recently started writing. I hope she continues! Her husband Roberto to whom she refers is the good looking gentleman in the photo above.
