'M' Here...


Greetings All,
I am finally home. Home being, just South of Rosarito.
I rented a castle. Seriously. 3200', built in 09. It is still in chaos, trying to get services, such as internet, telephone, etc. I live in the hills, void of all city services.

I am on jeans', internet now when I need to connect, but it is getting old, running here to connect with the world. jeans' house is 1/2 mile away so, it's not that bad, but, I am being tried hard with patience....lol...yeah...yeah... Baja, I get it.
I'm off today to try and work out more services, but, not speaking the language, and the Baja folk with great lines of B.S., I'm at a serious disadvantage.
All will work out in time I'm sure.
I just wanted to check in, let the Nomads know...NO, I have NOT hit and run...I am STILL an Amigo, just, disconnected a bit.
I have to run to the states tonight for a couple days to see Dr's and pick up some more crap. Always crap laying around to gather and sort. Jeez!
When my home is settled, I have 4 rooms with beds. A living room I may turn into a soccer field for sh*ts and giggles, and a balcony with a fire pit I can roast a steer in. I'm seeing....hmm, some BBB's in the future? Anyway, must go now. I miss you all, never, ever, forgotten, any of you.
When I can get my own internet, I will be online with some serious stories, only a Baja native can grasp. AMAZING! lol....
GOOD LORD!
Anyway, I'm home. For better, or worse, God closed a door for me, yet opened an amazing window, that only a twisted sister like me would walk through....
BIG HUGS to all those I adore..
M

M, I was getting worried about you! Guess you are in good hands with my other WiW.:rolleyes:

I have been moping in AZ for a week while Marian spends money at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show.

Glad to hear that you have a home now. I'm kinda worried about Neal's WiW comment...Don't you two WiWs get too wild, at least not until you can get internet and keep us in the loop!

Congratulations on your new baja life.

love ya,
P>*)))>{ WIW#1, least you two forget.

Do You Have a Landline in Your New Home?


Telnor provides Prodigy Internet access, if that is something that will work for you.

The Telnor office in Rosarito usually has an employee on duty who speaks English.

OH DK!!!
I swear! you can pull up the MOST appropriate pics, for WHATEVER situation I happen to be in.
Makes me a bit worried when I was doing a bit of... OOOOing and AHHHing, at Cielito Lindo. OH GOD! YOU BETTER NOT, EVEN think of the hot springs!
As I recall, dawn came on a bit sooner than my clothes did....Ah well.
I'm once more at Mindy's using her services. I STILL am lacking phone and internet. I have to be in the states on the 19th for a Dr. appt. I'll hang out there till probably Thursday. Much left to do yet. It's so good to be home. As screwed up as things still are, 'Let it always be humble....there is NO place...like home.' Buenos Noches, 'M'.

Diff 'Castle'


Hi Keri,
No, I would like to hear the story though.
I call mine 'The Castle' because it's HUGE, built of all rainbow brick and beautiful wood cielings and beams.
It's 'christian' name is, Casa de Angels, though, I have dealt with a few gremlins there...quite a story itself, but when I have more time. I'm on a borrowed computer again.
Hugs,
M

M,
No explanation needed, this is an adult board.:lol::lol::lol:

The picture of you and jeans speaks for itself.
I did have to explain the "in the sack" story to Marian.
