Still Here!

I know I have been woefully inattentive of my blogging audience, but I'll tell you the straight truth--I got a life.

I got hooked into the expat network, and after weeks of struggling with Spanish, I let my withering English skills out of the dungeon and haven't stopped talking since.

I had an idealistic notion of quickly learning Spanish, meeting many lovely new people, and integrating to Mexican culture in a myriad of ways. However, it's just not that simple. Now I'm on the slow and realistic track of managing things day by day, and not getting too upset about anything, if I can help it.

One new adventure I've undertaken is painting classes. I've taken some photos of my work and that of the other women in my class. Consider this a promise to create another blog entry soon...
