Little Things

Things change fast. Yesterday, I thought my Mexican realtor was blowing me off...not so. I was simply unable to get the email he sent to me via web. When I got the messages today, I decided to instruct him to move forward with a bid on a condo in Mexico...I'm crossing my fingers that I get it. That, despite the fact that my wife and I may not be able to get health insurance in Mexico when we retire...we really won't know until we apply for it. Our pre-existing conditions could make us ineligible...or maybe not.

Yesterday's yearning for migas was fulfilled today, as my wife and I went to Bigote's, our favorite place for Mexican breakfasts in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Then, we went to the office and worked...I was there about 4 hours, maybe longer. Pain in the ass on a Sunday! Then, we went out to do errands. Ultimately, we got home early enough that I was able to get a big errand finished.

Months ago, I bought a 32 inch television (used) that I wanted to put in the master bedroom, where my wife "nests" and watches DVDs, etc. First, I had to buy a table the right size and strength to handle a big TV that weighs 165 pounds. We got the table last weekend. Today, I had to replace the electric plug, get a longer phone cord (for the satellite configuration signal), and then get the DVD and satellite receiver and TV all hooked up. Moving the monster TV was the hardest part. I finally got it done and it was worth it. My wife is in the bedroom now, enjoying her new big screen. Earlier, she came out to tell me how wonderful it was to see Iron Chef on such a large screen. It's the little things.
