I lived in Lower La Floresta for years and never felt safe there. So many break ins. But now I live in an inexpensive Mexican community where I know my neighbors. They know me and my landlord and landlady live upstairs from me. I can always call out to them. I do believe that the safest place a person can live is in an inexpensive Mexican community where people know you. I am so sorry that your partner died. ANd all this mess that has happened to you has made having to deal with that death so much more difficult. And I am sorry that you have been so mistreated by vultures. I hope you find a better place to live where you feel safe and loved. thank you for writing.

In front of my eyes his possessions just vanished. I have never seen so many scams, scam artists etc that are waiting to jump on the retirees. I live in a beautiful house but feel as though with the security system and bars, bars, bars that I am living a life of a bird locked in a gilted cage. The robberies are out of sight and I am not talking about just gringos. Honest Mexicans also complain about being robbed constantly if they are not vigilant. I lived in Africa for 10 years and never encountered so much dishonestly. Mexicans will swear on the bible, lie in front of lawyers about being honest with tears in their eyes. They borrow money for grandparents that have died triple times without any intention of paying back. The acting should be given an award alone. Retired people should be warned. Yes benefits such as cheap living can be had but no thanks, I value freedom. I could not even ride my bicycle in a predigous community on a bike path without a Mexican trying to knock me over to steal the bike and it was not an expensive bike.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16269600880675188693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026591328777526500.post-32133327959396500922016-11-25T12:21:50.325-06:002016-11-25T12:21:50.325-06:00Pat,

It may be a big change for you, but whatever else might be stressing you now, just put that one out of your mind-- because you look terrific. I'll bet when your hair grows back (and it will), you'll seriously consider keeping your new 'do. And you should. :-)<br /><br />Thanks for all your astute observations, I always enjoy reading them, and they sure help to center me sometimes. Wishing you an enjoyable holiday season, and many more to come.<br /><br />JimS.<br />SeattleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026591328777526500.post-50847428178165737752016-11-25T09:34:36.346-06:002016-11-25T09:34:36.346-06:00A day late, but Happy Thanksgiving to you!

Know you're beautiful and your hair has absolutely nothing to do with your beauty. Sure it will take a bit of time to adjust to a different style, it always does. You just may end up loving the ease of short hair and wondering why you didn't do it sooner! Meanwhile....I always say we're lucky when all something costs is money. The hospital bill will get paid, life will go on (Gracias a Dios). I hope the remainder of the year and this holiday season is full of an abundance of good things for you. Bless you always.
