A lot has happened since my last blog entry in 2017!

After the September 1917 earthquake along the coast of Oaxaca, I asked a friend, David Venegas, to go with me to take some tarps for people left without shelter. When we returned, David’s mom was hospitalized and died. He had graduated from Chapingo University as an agronomist but had been working as a waiter. I fell and had a back injury earlier, so I offered to have him live with me to help me with lifting and translating since he was fluent in both Spanish and English.

Then I moved from my apartment to a big 3 bedroom house with a big back yard and little adobe casita with it’s own bathroom and shower for David to live in.

For the purposes of this blog I am ignoring that trump and the pandemic ever happened.

Since then we have acquired a little Mexican Hairless Puppy.
