A Pasadena Latina: 63 and 39 equals a lot of life and love
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2014/07/63-and-39-equals-lot-of-life-and-love.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2014. 63 and 39 equals a lot of life and love. Pete and Nellie Martinez, 1951. 63 years ago my parents were married at La Placita. I now know that the more formal name is La Iglesia de Nuestra Señora la Reina de Los Angeles, but formality seems a bit pretentious when a place has been a part of the family for a long time. They were married when they were 39 years old. Neither had been married before and both had idealized visions of what married life would be like. They always, always, a...

A Pasadena Latina: A fine line between indulgence and debauchery
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/06/a-fine-line-between-indulgence-and.html
Friday, June 19, 2015. A fine line between indulgence and debauchery. 7:23 Slept in, unintentionally. Need to zoom, I have an 8:00 meeting in E. Pasadena. 7:40 Yes, friend, I'd love to meet you for coffee and breakfast. 7:45 Let person know that I'm going to be a little late. 7:55 Who is in that truck in front of house? I need to get to meeting. Oh, Dear Friend, thank you for the birthday concha. Chocolate AND vanilla with a birthday candle. "Gotta go, see you Sunday for coffee". For lunch. With milk.

A Pasadena Latina: After and Before
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/07/after-and-before.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Been pretty busy lately. Will share more of the details soon. In the meantime, yesterday was the 40th birthday of my older baby. A woman who can still make her tween laugh and can perch a purse on her knee without giving it too much thought. I have to admire that skill set. She is a multi-tasking mama, serious social worker, and loving daughter. Morro Bay - 2014. La Plazita - 1951. July 31, 2015 at 6:48 PM. Happy birthday, happy anniversary, and happy anniversary.

A Pasadena Latina: Bye, July
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/08/bye-july.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2015. July was quite the month. Occupational Therapy, impounded car, new car, meetings and more history excavating. Facts discovered - the son of Daniel M. Berry, Mr. Alfred Berry married Francisca Rubio. Questions leap forward; was related to Old Man Rubio of Rubio Canyon, were the Rubio Marron (Duarte, Lopez) family kith or kin to Doña Eulalia? Court cases seem to have Perez, Sepulveda, Avila, and Garfias families at odds over Rancho El Rincon de San Pascual. The history programs b...

A Pasadena Latina: Hello, it's me...
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/07/hello-its-me.html
Monday, July 13, 2015. Hello, it's me. I've missed being in touch with you. The last three weeks have been filled with day to day obligations and surprises. The day to day obligations still include time reserved for wrist exercises. It may not impress you, but I am excited that I now am doing my exercises alternating one and two pound weights. It is a quiet excitement, but excitement nonetheless. Went to a meeting on June 24th; came out of the meeting and began to walk to my car. Walked and walked an...

Honey “Do” List. Honey on the Move. Welcome to my blog! July 28, 2011. After months of navigating the mine fields of all this technology so necessary to my new venture, Honey Your Home, my website is done, I am learning to blog and enjoying my experience as a shop owner on Etsy. WHEW! There were times when I was sure that my head was going to explode. That being said only time will tell where all of this is going to land but I fully intend to enjoy the ride and hope you’ll jump on board too.

A Pasadena Latina: The Journey to Pueblo or Remembering One's Place
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-journey-to-pueblo-or-remembering.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2015. The Journey to Pueblo or Remembering One's Place. Train ride to La Junta, CO was good. Lots of room and a chance to wear comfy shoes. I will ride the Southwest Chief again. I wish it still stopped in Pueblo. Oh, well, a quick layover in La Junta tonight and a short bus ride to Pueblo tomorrow. Ready to de-board, or is it disembark, or is it detrain? I don't know at this moment. I've been on the road for 24 hours - because I'm serious about my work, y que. June 17, 2015 at 9:18 AM.

A Pasadena Latina: Okay, June 18th, I'm ready
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/06/okay-63-im-ready.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2015. Okay, June 18th, I'm ready. Boy, this 62nd year was quite something. Summer and early fall saw a lot of energy focused on identifying why things were as they were and then dealing with cancer and a hysterectomy. Neither the cancer or the hysterectomy were on my to do list. Goodbye thoughts of entering a doctoral program, hello thoughts about what do I really want to do with whatever time I have left? A week, a month, a decade, a couple of decades? I was glad that I was able to b...

A Pasadena Latina: 1931 - So that's what they looked like
http://pasadenalatina.blogspot.com/2015/06/1931-so-thats-what-they-looked-like.html
Tuesday, June 16, 2015. 1931 - So that's what they looked like. The Rawlings Library, on Abriendo in Pueblo, has a section that is dedicated to the City of Pueblo, the Southwest, and local genealogy. Part of the documents available to the public are yearbooks from a couple of the local high schools. My mom attended Centennial High and, thanks to some sort of gerrymandering or the other, she attended the same high school as the sons and daughters of the very, very well off. And then there was Mr. John...
