Missing Mexico

We have gone to Mexico every year since 2003.   Something about the country feeds my souls as corny as it sounds.   People are always amazed when I tell them we go back to Mexico each year...for some reason they think it is a dangerous backwards country.  I tend to let them think that because I dont want any more tourists taking up my spot on their beautiful beaches.  Truth is ...it is safer than New Orleans and the beachs are waaaaaay nicer than any I have seen in the states.

Today is a crapped out day (meaning rainy and overcast/humid/traffic from Mardi Gras)....so I am looking at Allens airmiles and trying to decide where to stay and when to go.

My good frined Annalynne Bogner has booked all of my trips for me and has suggested a nice resort for me to look into :

 Zoetry Paraiso de la Bonita...you can google it or check it out on trip advisor..it is very laid back and very relaxing.  Sounds Fab right ?   wait till you see the pics !!!

This is Annalynnes web site for her travel agency:

She is a "Mexico expert" and always leads me in the right direction.   She is a dear friend and was very kind to me during this whole cancer ordeal.  Love you Shamalamalamalama.........(my nickname for her).
She is one of my fearless friends.   I know who they are now after going thru this illness.     I need to call her soon and let her book a trip for me so I can have something to talk about for the next few months.

Got to love it.   I love mariachi bands.

I  had a prety decent week.  I got my first Mani/Pedi since September...it was wonderful.  I did a little bit of shopping and bought a nice pair of  Espadrilles and some "vacation" aka casual clothes.  I dont buy casual clothes because I wear suits to work and work out type clothing on weekends.
I still dont have the full energy to do a mall trip....but Kohls had some great deals.

My temperature controls are all messed up.  Hot and cold from minute to minute. The chemo threw me head first into menopause.   I will have to resort to taking sleep meds to get some rest.  Still have lots of  neuropathy in my hands and feet and some serious bone pain by the end of the day.  All things to talk about with my onc doc on Thursday.

But for the most part I am grateful for my new normal and having some feel good time now and then,
