You can rest assured I'm ok. All Mexican wounds have healed & I'm working on not being clumsy & receiving any more.
I'm not teaching at the moment..I've been given a job researching & helping Mexicans emigrate to Canada. Interesting stuff! And the pay is better!!
I've moved into an apartment, so I'm living like a human being again. Hot water, gas, a good little kitchen to cook in (roast chicken basted with orange juice & honey, baked spuds with onion rings & avocado, orange & honey roasted kumara, & steamed carrots & brocolli tonight..wish I could find a meat-mallet to tenderise the evily tough beef), a telephone, internet access, & a nice big super-king bed! HEAVEN!
I've made a few friends in the neighbourhood, & even went to a party on Saturday night..yeeeha! Not bad going for only having been in the apartment for 2-weeks.
It's autumn here now, which reminds me very much of spring in NZ. Some days hot, some days chilly, lots of rain, & the nights now require a spare blanket next to the bed ready for 3am when it gets cold.
I had to wash my sleeping bag a couple of weeks ago cos it was a bit whiffy..& now it's ready for when it starts getting FREEZING overnight.
If it looks like I'm not going to get away from Mexico easily, I may just have to adopt a stray cat to help keep me warm at night.
