The Rent Is Due Tomorrow!

I guess I will find out how good the Mexican banking system is going to work for me when I go to withdraw money from my new account for the very first time. First I need to find out how much is in there and I tried to register for online banking but apparently, I don't have a chequing account with eleven digits so I can't. :( My rent is due tomorrow so hopefully, there is enough in there to cover it!

My weekend was spent recovering from my last week of excess -- I was out every night for dinner and didn't really spend much time at home except to sleep and change clothes. I managed to get to the gym three times last week so I hope I don't see any extra pounds creeping back on. I'll let you know after I try to squeeze into my uniform tomorrow morning! It felt good to have an evening to myself on Friday night.

On Saturday, I only worked from 10AM to 3:30PM and then headed over to the gym. It actually rained yesterday AND today ... very strange. The mosquitoes are back out in full force but the air is definitely cooler. I met my friends Dave and Nancy at Langostino's on Saturday night with another couple, Ned and Cindy. They are all staying at Casa Andrea for two weeks. My friend Cliff is here with his Mexican girlfriend, Leticia, whose English is improving faster than his Spanish! We all had drinks and dinner together ... what fun!

Today, a bunch of us went to the beach at Conchas Chinas since it is closer to town. The boys wanted to cut our weekly excursion short so they could go to Steve's Bar at 3PM and watch the CFL semi-finals. The beach was crowded with Mexican families and even some people we knew. The water was definitely cooler -- a welcome relief to this Canadian Goddess! I came home and did laundry. LOL It's been a quiet night and I am ready for another work week starting tomorrow. More friends are arriving this coming weekend and I need to rest up for that!

Remember to tell the important people in your life how much you love them. You never know what tomorrow will bring ...
