Buenos Dias. I'm the blue dot. More #earthquakes today. I haven't felt these aftershocks, thank goodness. It's quite un-nerving!

Thanks, John. Present situation. I'm the blue dot. I have not felt anything but my friend's cats are very skittish.

I'm in Cerro Punta. I was in the kitchen and grabbed the counter-top, thinking I was having a stroke! Then I heard things falling off shelvers, and saw the light moving. Dios Mio!

Because I gift 'from my home to yours' and make all of my own Christmas/Holiday gifts, I got an early start today. Also for my non-gardening friends, I made jam with fresh local berries and there will be cookies. #Gardening #Gifts #Homesteading

Hahahaha! I don’t do well with gluten. Double the garlic and ginger, add some hot sauce, pour over the pressed and cubed tofu that’s been dredged in corn starch and fried. Green onions, basil if you have it, sesame seeds (but peanuts would work)

I was shocked reading the questions and looking at the photos of the people attached to those questions. And what’s with the social service questions? No one is collecting welfare in Alberta who is a non-resident anyway.

They want it all and now! They do not want to have to lift a finger. I bought a house at 59 and was my own general and also did work. I can drywall, wire, and run a crew. These buyers are afraid to break a nail. Fucking entitled.

My washer. Aka: Speed Queen. My local Home Hardware has them. These are used in laundromats. Will last and parts are cheap and easy to get. A little more upfront, but cheaper in the long run.

I'm THRILLED to be conducting (I'm a licensed officiant still, but retired) and hosting a friend's wedding on Cafe de Backporcha. They'll say their vows under the grape vines with a few close friends in attendance. I've had to warn one of the grooms: Dude, you HAVE to WEAR CLOTHES!!

A long time ago, I bought a boat that needed a lot of work. I did the work. Deck was soft, interior trash, no wiring. This is splash day.
