March 7, 2019: Visiting the Museo Ex Hacienda San Gabriel de Barrera

Posted on 03/08/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

Moments before Rosa was to arrive, I got out my laptop and googled museums near me. I scrolled down the list until I found one I had not been to yet. I selected Museo Ex Hacienda San Gabriel de Barrera. At 2.2 miles from the apartment, it was a good destination for the day. On…

February 27, 2019: Street food, and artwork

Posted on 02/28/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

I didn’t sleep very well last night, I really don’t know why. When I got up this morning I had a message from the apartment owner asking if Rosa could come a day early. My first reaction was to say that I wasn’t feeling well, and really didn’t want go out. Then I remembered that…

February 21, 2019: No Momias for Me

Posted on 02/28/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

My neighbors upstairs had told me about a cemetery they recommend my visiting. Since it was my day to make myself scarce and let Rosa do her magic, I figured that today was the day to go. It would make a nice long walk from my apartment and back. Since there was plenty of food…

February 19, 2019: Seeking Sancho Panza

Posted on 02/26/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

Okay, so that title is a little over blown, but sometimes it is hard to come up with good titles. Today I just needed to get out of the house. I finished my year-end paperwork (both my private and business paperwork) and loaded it up to the cloud. I didn’t need to leave for Rosa….

February 13, 2019: Thank goodness for Rosa.

Posted on 02/25/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

Just like when I lived in Honolulu, I have a bad habit of being a hermit. In both cities there is a lot to do outside my front door. My ex-home in Honolulu and my rented apartment here both are so comfortable that I am truly disinclined to go outside. I am forced to head…

February 9, 2019: GTO

Posted on 02/23/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

GTO not only was it a great car, but it is the abbreviation for Guanajuato, a great area of Mexico, as well as the town I am living in. It has been a while since I last posted a blog. Of course, that means I have several I need to knock out. I also haven’t…

February 5, 2019: A day in the Museo

Posted on 02/06/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

Though I would have rather stayed home and continued to work on my novel, today was cleaning day. Rosa didn’t come last week, so she came two days early this week. At 11am I headed out, so as not to get under her feet. I really didn’t need to go shopping today, but figured after…

January 27 – February 4, 2019

Posted on 02/05/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

I went into full hermit mode for over a week, only leaving the apartment when I had to get food. You might have noticed that during this time I wasn’t blogging either. A strange thing happened when I started serializing my first novel on my blog. It got me back into working on my fifth…

January 26, 2019: Escaping the Neighbors’ Fiesta.

Posted on 01/26/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

I needed to work on my novel today, but the neighbors were gearing up for a Fiesta. The music was playing really loud. Face it, the music is still playing very loudly (2200 hours). To combat it, I put on my ear phones and set my iPhone to play “brown” noise. I tried “white noise”,…

January 24, 2019: Cleaning Day Again

Posted on 01/25/201906/11/2019 by margrad80

I waited until it was almost time for Rosa to arrive before leaving today. Rosa has a key and can let herself in to clean. I didn’t have any shopping to do, and really didn’t feel like wandering around a museum. I decided that I would walk down to the first tunnel from my apartment…
