San Jose And Deigo my friend

I took the day and went to San Jose to see what I could find, I also took my friend Diego with me. He had to go the embassy to get his USA passport since he is half north American, and Half Central American he is capable of having both. He needed a ride so we went together. I enjoy his company he is such a nice warm loving person. God bless him much... Nothing more than friends but he is one to treasure. Has a real sense of life and faith. he is always encouraging to me. I try to do the same to him. We laughed and talked and then I dropped him off at the bus station in Down town San Jose. I scary place but it was day light

I shopped around didn't really find a whole lot of what I was looking for, and the traffic now is so bad that it takes you forever to get from one place to another. I bought a small dresser for about $230 American dollars. For my room nothing special.. I got a nice sisal type rug in brown and tan for the living room. Some brown silk pillows with lime green and orange stones on them, and a pretty orange leaf pattered one on a brown background. For my small chair I bought a same pattern but only in lime and brown.
I also bought some tropical silks and huge glass vase. Some art of orchids to put in a collage on one wall. And a few things for my bathroom. It is not easy here like the states to find cool stuff, nothing is convenient to find but I do have sources they just didn't have the things I was looking for.
I had a call from a friend when I was there Eddie, he wanted to meet up with me. We had a small dinner, he was feeling ill, so I took him home and made the ride back to Jaco around 7:40. It takes Two hours over big mountains to get back. It was totally fine till I got past Orotina, then it began to rain and rain hard. I slowed down some because it was very difficult to see, But I made it home just in the nick of time to catch the hardest rain fall. Which drenched me to the bone... I ran in the house, Clint was there with a friend. At least we had power!!! the day before the whole day no power, at night no power till around 3:00 am. Then in the morning the same, No power so cold shower, and got ready for San Jose... I was happy to see the power on. The simple things you learn to enjoy here when Living in Costa Rica!!

I am still working on Feather the nest... Doesn't look exactly they way I would like yet. I need to build head board. I had an idea with bamboo wood, foam and fabric over the foam. Button tuffed so it looks pretty... but I may just have one of my people do it instead of me.. although I know how and I like to do things like that I think it would be much better to have one of my manufactures put it together. I am sure none of them have made anything like this.
Today I am going to take a belly dancing class with a couple of my friends. I need to begin some sort of exercise again. I may be having some surgery here in the beginning of May. For years I have wanted this.. I may take the plunge and do it! the only problem is My recovery is three weeks in San Jose for daily visits to the surgeon. This may present a small problem YA THINK??

Clint will be in New york for a time and the surgery is scheduled for before he returns. More on this another time...

I Just had constaino in here... he is the crazy Colombian, that adores me and We are like the skunk pepe le pew and the cat in the cartoon. I can not handle him at all he makes me so nuts I want to run and I have ran away from him many times. Today in his visit here he was calm, I guess he has figured out that I am not interested but for friends only. He is really a character the real pepe le pew! short but built nice, bald and always wears a base ball cap. He is totally in love with me... constantly saying he loves me... GOD I HATE IT!!! hes not for me let me say... but he is funny and does try at times to be nice to me... tonight perhaps is jungle bar dancing, Merange, cumbia and salsa!!! NEED THE EXERCISE!! and besides these people dance so beautiful! I really don't know now If I can move back to the USA? I love the latin enviroment, this is one of the good things
