Saturday Mar 3/12 update

Bella’s task was groceries and groceries and groceries today since we had emptied the larder knowing we would be away to Quito.

I went out to get ink for the printer, buy a DVD player, arrange for the dining room wall covering, and to get my small cloth backpack repaired.

The computer place was willing to deal on the printer ink so I saved us about $3 there.  The Sony DVD player was $57 and a webcam camera was $17 at Coral, less our discount so I only paid about $58.50 for both. The backpack cost $1.50 to get the straps sewn on securely so it was a good day.

Yes, now I have a webcam on my computer for Skyping, and it works really well.

I succumbed to buying 6 more movies for $9, with four of them being triple movie collections, except I found to my chagrin that 3 of them were only in Spanish so I will have to see if they will trade them for something else.

Then I spent a lot of time redoing our business cards and home sign to use a new address L:V4 Calle Popayan which is what they use on the utility bills.

I have also made copies of our cedulas, passports, and my birth certificate for laminating to carry around instead of the originals.

That was today’s excitement.   Hugs to all.
