May 17/2021 Tijuana Bound 🤞🏻

I think we finally have spring. Although the weatherman is calling for snow on Wednesday. Then plus 21 for Saturday and Sunday. Only in Alberta do you get all four seasons in one week. 😀 I am so ready for summer to come this year. I know everyone is, as it has been a very long winter under lockdown, for most of it.

Jamie and I are all settled in our new place. We moved just down the road from our last place. The coolest part about living in our RV is we just pack up and move whenever we want. We have a beautiful spot now. A little yard, and the couple who owns the campground are so nice. He brought us a big deck the first day we moved. It needed some paint which I did of course. We got a couple lawn chairs and a BIG umbrella I got some flowers and we are all set. I feel like we’re home. This is where we are meant to stay. I love it 🤗

I have also learned through Covid how truly lucky I am to have my Jamie. (I have always said he is my Jamie. ) It is sure a good thing we like each other because we have been underfoot of each other for over a year now. We have really spent most of our 43 years of marriage only together about 1/2 of the time because he was away with work and I was home taking care of kids and our home. The last few years we have been together constantly and even more since Covid and since we sold the farm. I think retirement just might work out. 🤪

After about 20 calls to my Dr in Mexico he has finally agreed to send me some of the supplements I need. Everything except the B17 which is the one I really want. He said he did send some for other patients and it was confiscated at the border. It is very expensive so I don’t want to loose it. Then Jamie found out on Friday that he should be getting a couple weeks off so we are going to try to go down to Tijuana. I am not sure what that looks like but we’re going to try. The flights are awful now. The trips are long with layovers and two or three stops. Then there is getting the covid tests before we fly both ways and quarantine when we get back. It sounds so complicated. I think this is the new Covid world we are living in. I really hate it. But I have had a few health problems lately and I really feel like I want to go to Mexico before I do anything here. Besides it takes so long to not only get the tests here but also the results. I trust my Doctor in Tijuana so much I think he will do all the tests I need and I can get them done right away with the results right away too. So that’s our plan. Jamie and I are Tijuana bound the first week of June. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

Jamie and I have had small sprinkles of visits with our grandkids here and there. We miss them all so very much. I just want to hug and hold them so tight give them all a big old kiss. Then tell them I am so proud of them all because they have all had a really rough year with this Covid. Our oldest grandson graduates this year with no graduation. Our oldest granddaughter started junior high and it sucked, she just never got the experience and fun that should come with it. Home schooling not seeing their friends and worse not seeing us. lol lol 😁 As hard as Covid has been on all of us adults I know it has been much worse on the kids. When I go to the grocery store and I see children with masks on it just makes me feel so sad. I just don’t know when we will get back to “normal” as we knew it. How long will this craziness go on for? I want my old life back….soon !

Tonight’s saying : We isolate now so when we gather again …. No one is missing 😢

Number two : Let’s just be thankful that we don’t look like what we’ve been through. 🤪🤪
