Well its Sunday the going away party for Maritza went great she didn’t cry but laughed a lot. Jeff and Ruby got home about 3am slept till about 9am got dressed went shopping came home went to sleep again so if you were wondering why there was no post yesterday that’s why. I had Jeff include some of the pictures in today’s post. Today is an NFL Sunday so Jeff has the popcorn and drinks ready and starting at three plans to vegetate the rest of the day, not that’s much different than any other Sunday. The week ahead looks like a return to normal Ruby will be leaving early to go babysit Hari Jeff will show up later after all he has to help me write this dumb thing and comb, feed, and make sure I’m happy before he goes anywhere. It’s actually a little cool down here today probably only in the 60’s I think its because there’s no sun today and it looks like rain, of course as soon as were done here the sun will come out and it be in the eighties. Well I out of stuff so we’ll post the pictures, the whole group is on Facebook already, and then I’m headed to the couch (I have my own now) CIAO.

It a sad day in Bello Nelida’s daughter Maritza is leaving to go back to Sweden tomorrow and there having a going away party tonight. I don’t know the reason for her living in Sweden but she has a good job and is in school there so I guess it’s cool. All I know was she knew not to pester me when I was resting and always had a big smile on her face so I for one will miss her a lot. I don’t know when she’s coming back or if she is there has been talk of her mother moving there. Now the family would definitely miss her a lot but if it was better there for her we would all support her decision. If she doesn’t go will Maritza come back to stay I’m not sure but I think not, she has more going for her there then she would here after being gone for awhile, but you never know about these things. In other news there isn’t any LOL so I’ll have Jeff take a lot of pictures and I’ll make sure some get posted here CIAO.

Ok it’s the day after grump’s birthday and he survived cake and ice cream and hearing happy birthday in Swedish and Spanish and far too many times. I survived to many relatives and too much laughter. Now it’s time for the old man to start getting in shape finish his second book, in other words get his ass in gear. Well for those of you who care the sun is trying to come out today don’t know if it will succeed we’ll have to wait on that one. Ruby left early today and left the mess from last night in the kitchen sink so I guess the birthday is officially over. Fats better hurry up and clean my litter box or he’s likely to find a surprise in his chair latter today. I don’t know what else to tell you guy so CIAO.

It’s the grumpy old man’s birthday and he’s at that age where he says he doesn’t want anything and then when he doesn’t get anything he sulks, he needs to grow a pair. Anyhow today is a lot like yesterday with not a lot going on and it looks like rain again. It hasn’t rained in awhile down here and with the sun here you can watch everything turn brown virtually overnight. The southern part of the country is experiencing a drought and there have been a number of forest fires and of course the food prices will start to go up. It seems everywhere you go as things seem to be improving Mother Nature comes around to screw with the economy. But down here people just smile have another beer and get on with whatever it is their doing. I guess that’s OK I mean up there everybody gets excited and starts blaming this or that while like I said down they just roll with the punches. Well once again I’ve run out of stuff so I’m going to go to the closet so I can stay away from grumpy and we’’ see you tomorrow CIAO

Boy it gets harder and harder to come up with something for this dumb blog, I don’t know how Jeff does writing his book he’s on his second and already has an idea for a third. I have trouble coming up with a few lousy lines for you guys to read hopefully something will happen soon so I can write about it. you see down here vacation time is coming to an end and everybody is sort of down in the dumps, there’s no soccer of any importance so the sports scene is quiet and fortunately nothing bad is going on. Even the weather is gloomy not too much sun after the last few days. That might be a good thing keep the fire to a minimum. Well that’s it I’ve run out of BS so CIAO.

Monday morning who cares did you see Jodie Foster is gay, who cares? They but pictures up of the 2014 Corvette Stingray, who cares? Californians are getting another night of cold, who cares? Do you see a trend here I’m a cat and Jeff is retired trying to write books and the bottom line is we don’t care. It’s cloudy and it looks like rain but we don’t care because we don’t have to be anywhere today or tomorrow for that matter. I bet your all sitting around your office’s reading this and going DAM, well guess what who cares, not us that ‘s for sure. We watched the Green Bay football game the other night and it was minus 2 degrees and we didn’t care you know why it was 72 down here and the pool was open. I guess we just felt like making every ones Monday suck just a little more today and I think we accomplished our goal CIAO.

It’s a cloudy Sunday especially if you live in Green Bay or Denver they were the losing team sin yesterdays playoffs. It’s the first cloudy morning down here in a long while and it’s still pretty warm for 10 am. Jeff and I had a great day yesterday doing absolutely nothing watching play off football eating candy potato chips and soda and if Ruby doesn’t decide to come home early because of the weather were going to do the same thing again today. The vacation time is starting to come to an end down here so all the little juvenile delinquents will be hiding out in the park across the street skipping school and doing dope. Jeff and Ruby have to start looking for someplace nice for them to go together it’s been awhile since they went away alone. Jeff has a schedule set up for the weekdays so he’ll have time to exercise and write his book, which he hope to have done by the end of March. I don’t know why he’s doing it he has only sold one copy of his book so far, but it is still early in the process. Well I’m going to have breakfast with Jeff and then take a nap so CIAO.

Guess what Jeff’s not going to the farm he talked to Ruby and said he doesn’t really have a good time at these places and there’s nothing for him to really do and she said OK. Now Jeff wants just the two of them to go to a really nice hotel with great restaurants and just relax’ we’ll see if that happens. So I guess I’m going to get to watch playoff football after all, hope the games are good after all that. The temperature down here is really hot there have been lots of fires in the mountains and the further south you go the worst it gets. That mean we can expect higher food prices later this year just like the rest of the world. This apartment gets really hot late in the afternoon there’s no insulation in buildings down here so the western side of the buildings walls get really hot then give of the heat after sundown making Jeff’s office and the bedroom really hot till about 9pm. Well I don’t have much else I wasn’t expecting to be blogging today I’m going to the closet and cool off a little CIAO.

Thursday and I really don’t have much to talk about Mauricio, Camilo and Maritza are coming to use the pool which means I hide I the closet. Jeff is about 25% done with his second book the first one isn’t selling like he would want but as he says it’s only been 1 month. Hader looked at Jeff’s shoulder and says its tendon based possibly rotator cuff we’ll have to wait and see. It looks like they’ll be headed to the farm tomorrow instead of Saturday so that gives more alone time and Jeff more time to be grumpy. I hope the weather stays good for them it’s not pleasant to be at farm in the rain with a bunch of people. Well the gangs all here and Jeff is going to head to the pool so maybe I’ll get to talk tomorrow if not I’ll be back Monday CIAO.

The tree is down the house is back to normal until next year and all is well. Ruby and Jeff are definitely headed to the farm this weekend and I’m going to miss the NFL playoffs but at least I’ll get some much needed rest. There were some strange noises in the house last night I think the upstairs neighbor couldn’t sleep and was walking around slamming doors and such. People in this country can be very weird at times I try to just let it go I mean I can sleep during the day Jeff and Ruby can’t especially Ruby. Once Ruby gets up she can’t go back to sleep at least that what she keeps telling us but if that’s true, who is that snoring in front of the TV in the afternoon? The farm or Finca their going to belong to Ruby’s friend Ruby they’ve been there for visits before so they know what to expect Jeff just hopes there’s enough room for all the people since they expect Ruby’s family to be there too. I don’t care I just want some peace and quiet this weekend so I can get some real rest. Well tomorrow is another day and I’ll be talking to you then CIAO.
