Why am I always having to explain myself?
Since my last post, it has been immensely difficult for us to function on a day to day basis. I had no idea that things could get so very intense. It took all I had to keep Collin anchored and myself functioning.
We have moved to Mazatlan – with difficulty. But for the most part are very happy.]
We are still unpacking and working on settling in. Of course new things have occurred as to our our future plans. All remains in limbo.
Today is the very first day since the move that we both (well, all four of us had a nap at the same time ). Actually Colin and I were in the midst of a discussion re future plans when we both fell asleep. So very many various scenarios in our future.
We have started on the healing journey and only have so much energy.
I just wanted to share that the four of us are dealing with the situation and everyday gets a tiny bit better.
Don’t worry as I intend to share every nitty gritty detail but for now it is important to share with you all that we have survived. I suspect that my past posts and what is to come is worthy of a movie. .Anyone want to write the script?
Please give me a few weeks to unwind and catch up with myself. Colin has maintained but this week he has made the decision to expediate his therapy schedule…..he really wants to improve even faster.
We so appreciate that you are hanging with us thus far…..

















Soooooo glad hearing from you, amigos !!
Hang in there… God will help you, my prayers are with you ! All the sunset pictures are pure magic; que bellas fotos ❤️. Virtual hugs to the bunch.
Glad to hear all’s well and you’re moving forward.
Beautiful sunsets!
Challenging times for you both but we know you will not only survive but grow and enjoy what the future will be for you. Remember to take time and breath and relax.
Its so Great hearing from you! Sorry there have been so many hurdles for you but I am sure the goal post is in view for you now. I admire your tenacity and strength, many would have given up yet you both move ahead with great determination. I will eagerly await your updates with hopes only good things are ahead for you.
Always good to get an update from you. Thank you, thank you for the sunset pictures they are lovely and always give me such happy memories of the sunset I have seen while in Mazatlan. They are spectacular.
Happy to hear all is well. Those photos are fantastic, of the sunsets; they must give you so much joy. Can’t wait to hear what comes next…
So great to hear from you. You are facing your challenges together and staying tough. We are all pulling fir you and hope everything continues to improve and get resolved.
We miss Mexico, those sunsets are stunning. Take care, it will all work out.
Glad to hear things are getting better.🤗❤️
I appreciate that you still post.🥰
So many blogs I have followed over the years have stopped.
Just you and Travel with Kevin and Ruth are left of the 10 or so I signed up to.
I’m so very glad that things are coming together,
poco a poco día a día, Nuestros pensamientos están contigo.💞💞💞💞💞
Good to know you are alive and, mostly, well. Life is challenging but you two are capable of handling whatever comes your way. Having those sunsets out your window helps I am sure.
Always happy 😁 to hear u are all doing well. Beautiful pictures!!!
If I could send you both additional strength I would but that’s not possible. I can only ofter advice from experience and knowledge. The body has it’s own timeframe for healing and each person is different. Listen to your body’s needs and don’t overwhelm a weakened healing body. Results can be a loss instead of a gain. Rest can be the best medicine with peaceful mind. Hope you both are or soon get to relax.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Thank you for taking the time to share these beautiful photos!
Wishing you a happy birthday week and hope that the Lord blesses you in your future plans! 🙂
Hugs and sloppy dog kisses from Opal & Sequoia.
You are both survivors! A bit of improvement at a time is the best! I am so happy to see Colin back to his photography!
I like to think that when one door closes another opens. Hang in there…
I think likewise …everything happens for a reason. 🌺
I often think about you two and wonder… I know you love Mexico and all, but I worry about you two down there. I wish you all could live in San Diego, or at least at the border, so you all could get medical care there. I hope ya two are doing okay, and hope you have some extra helping hands.
Another choice perhaps could be to move Victoria Island, is has a beautiful the weather & they will stay in their own country place where people speaks the same language. Friends of mine just returned from Victoria & came back en loved with it !! 🌺
I just saw this video and have to share. I don’t know if your comments will allow me to post a live link. If not, Google JC Travel Stories on YouTube and watch his video (posted today) regarding Vectura ReGrip Rehabilitation System. It’s for those who’ve had a stroke, and it rehabilitates hands. Amazing! I thought of Colin and playing the guitar. Best to you both!

It makes my heart hurt that you would have to give up “the girls” and that they are not happy. I don’t know what i would do without Sade. It is her that a alot of times propels me to even get out of bed and plan things to get me out of the house, even if it is only a drive to Starbucks for a “pup-cup”.
Take Care and God Bless Know that you are thought of and wished well most every day 🙂
