After a bit of a hiatus, I'm ready to share the rollercoaster ride of my past year. It has been a mix of highs and lows. I experienced loss and love, heartbreak and joy, welcoming a new grandchild, turning 50, moving to a new city, and becoming a homeowner again.
Last winter was particularly tough. I was mourning my mom's passing and dealing with a breakup while staying in Barra de Navidad. Blogging felt impossible, so I only managed to post a highlight video. Sadly, Frida, the rescue dog featured in that video, passed away from Ehrlichia, a tick-borne disease. Despite months of treatment, she was too far gone when I found her. However, on a happier note, I was able to find a loving home for a sweet Doberman puppy with a local surfer. She’s going to have an amazing life.
Now, I'm in a much better place and preparing for a three month trip to Mexico, starting in Puerto Vallarta. Last year’s trip was overshadowed by grief, but I’m back to my happy, adventurous self. I'm looking forward to lots of fun, live music, dancing, meeting new people, delicious food, exploring markets, and sightseeing. I can’t wait!
