Life...

Well sorry I haven't posted in a while. Basically as the title says... life. That is pretty much where I am right now.  Have had no luck in obtaining a teaching English position, I think in part as I have no degree. Other then that we are doing fine. We are moving into Fall here, the children here have started school so its more nosier in the morning as all the little school bus come to pick up the kids.

Well hope all my friends are well. Write we you can.

Thoughts about new Yahoo home page?

Ok everybody, leave feedback to Yahoo; new page format is terrible. Should offer a way to go back to old format. Here is the link to leave feedback http://feedback.help.yahoo.com/feedback.php?.src=homerun&.done=http://www.yahoo.com

So please everyone let them know how you feel.

One year anniversary

Well it has been one year since I have quit working and moved to Chile. It has been exciting !!!

We are doing well, I do have to admit that there are things I do miss not being in the States. Some of the things I miss are,not in any order:

1. The Internet is not created equal... :(. There are some sites that are not available because I am in Chile, such as Hulu.

2. Which then leads to TV, can see soe shows from US, but do miss watching NASCAR.

2. Kentucky Fried Chicken. We can not get a buck of chicken, mashed potatoes and cole slaw. Here its

3. I do miss work, well actually the people... you know who you are.... 

4. I do miss driving.. not quite ready to that here, am able to get around by bus and Metro.

Things I don't miss are

1.  All the crazy shootings going on, definitely not a problem here. Here it would be petty thief at best. We have experienced that, as Susan had a necklace rip off her neck.. Wasn't suppose to be wearing it to star with.... Her bike was stolen... we didn't have it locked.

2. Still getting use to how Chileans do business.  They are on their own time schedules, when have something delivered its from 0800 - 2100. Have some thing repaired, tell you three weeks, can be longer,

But other then this things we are getting along. Still working on my Spanish....


Well take care.

Water..on

Yea water has been restored, so it didn't take as long, they started to restore water last night. We weren't affected too much as we keep water on hand.

Don't known what this is going to cost the water company as they are being find about a $1,000,000 for the last time they had to cut off the water.

Well have a good day
