Teaching new Chilean drivers

We were at the mall, Alto Las Condes and saw some of the future Chilean drivers:

Can I see you license? 

Whoa buddy! !

Opps sign jumo out in front of me.

Shopping

Well yesterday was shopping day for vegetables..
We go to the local outdoor market every two weeks or so for our fresh vegetables. It is cheaper to go there then the Jumbo and the quality is just as good.
The weather was beautiful, especially compared to today. It was warm and sunny and to day is overcast and raining.

Here are some pictures

Time for lunch..I am hungry

These are empanadas. Sure was good had one and saved two that we'll freeze for latter.

Well take care and see you later.

1st time teaching English via Skype

Well I have been working with a local company in Santiago to update leads list for Pharmaceutical Companies to offer teaching English.

I can't believe the number of companies here in Chile. It is hard to track sometimes due to mergers of companies. Sometimes the name is the same others times they may be come a subsidiary. So this is still in process, but I had the opportunity to teach a person who is a psychologist.

It was kind of scary, but was fun as we both learned about each other and other topics. I had some help from the person I work for as this was my first time. So we shall see how this goes.

Have a great weekend

Happy 4th of July

Happy 4^th of july

Well Happy 4th of July to all our family and friends in  the US. It will be a laid back day for us, here in Chile. The weather has become much cooler and we have snow in the mountains.

We may have some friends come over and will have a picnic (inside of course) of hot dogs,chips and barbecue chicken. 

Well take care and be safe. 

God watches over dumb people.....

Well as the title says, God watches over us dumb people. I was going to pay our bills today, as Susan is heading for Miami today for a conference.  Well anyway, I got to Jumbo and was getting in line and I reached in my pocket for the bills......oh no.... I couldn't find them. Had I forgotten them at home? I didn't think so... so I backed tracked my way home. I found them in the middle of the road, I guess they had fallen out. Thank God I had found them because my Spanish is not good enough to pay the bills without a current bill. Yes you can pay current bill with a old bill.

I guess I am getting sapping in my old age. I like the song Only Time by Enya, till I saw the movie Sweet November today...how sad, now the song is even more sad.
